Day of the Dads

Father's Day was so fun. I really enjoy having everyone over to our home. The first time I volunteered our place for a get-together a few years ago, I was nervous about fitting 12+ people in our less than 1500 sq. ft. house, but no one ever seems to mind. Luckily we all like each other and don't mind sitting close! And a big backyard helps, too. We grilled brats and had lots of other yummy food and played ladderball, even though it was scorching out. What a great day!

Father's Day Fun

I invited the whole gang over to our house to celebrate Father's Day last month ...

I was very happy with how my Father's Day placecards turned out!

The Dads relaxin'!

On the menu was burgers and brats. Unfortunately, I couldn't get my gas grill lit (Kent was out of town), and none of the guys could figure it out either. Kent later told me that there is a special trick to it, but we rolled with it and arranged a charcoal contraption over my fire pit! It ended up being quite fun and reminded me of camping. My cousin Jackson was the official grillmaster.
