4th of July cookout

For the 4th of July we decided to have some friends over, it’s been awhile since we have had a real get together and cook out. Nothing too fancy, hot dogs, hamburgers, Scott's mac and cheese, Carolyn's ravioli and meatballs, Jane's potato salad, Ron's cheesecake, Amanda's strawberry shortcake (I'm drooling) did I say nothing fancy, this is high livin'

We ended up with almost 30 people over, we didn't know if we would have the space and seating for everyone but it worked out great, we put the video games up stairs for the kids and had all the seats we could find in the living room. Everyone seemed to have a good time.


Everyone grubbing down inside and out


Playing with sparklers with long exposure (if you want to know how to do this check Cameron's Photo blog)


Everyone hanging out having a good time.


So have you heard the news? Rumor has it that if you eat 6 cups of watermelon, it has the same affect as viagra, hence the note to Scott (he is the one who informed us of this) ;)
