School has not been the easiest for my my oldest. He struggles, like I did. We learn with our hands, and we learn by engaging in conversations. A teacher finally figured him out. Today, that teacher awarded him with the student of the year in food and nutrition. #proud #flyhigh

Boston (12) achieved his first degree Black Belt today. This kid fought hard through a 4 hour physical, emotional, and skilled test. Close to tears, but he persevered. I am extremely proud to watch him accomplish his dream. Congratulations, son, you earned it. Love you

Seventeen amazing years of marriage to my beautiful best friend. From the moment we said "I do" under that blistering hot sun, I've only fallen more in love with you. Thank you for your love. Happy 17th anniversary, Natalie!

Golf courses aren’t just playing fields — they’re wildlife sanctuaries. Thanks to superintendents for their efforts to offer habitat protections. #ThankASuper

As President of GCSAA, I’m proud to carry the legacy of my dad Todd, my grandpa Vaughn, and my great-grandpa Abe. Grandpa always said, “Giving your time to something bigger is more valuable than money.” Happy Father’s Day to all the amazing dads in our GCSAA family.
