Backyards BBQ

No, that wasn't a typo in the title. Our friends, the Salada's and the Swartz's live next door to each other (and praise God, only about a mile from us). This was the second year they hosted a "backyards BBQ" that spanned both of their backyards and invited everyone in our church to attend. We all had a blast, but Adeline....well, it was like her birthday and Christmas all wrapped in one.



No, you can't have her. She's mine...


there was sand....and of course, Linus....



I KNOW!!!


The grill masters....Duncan on the left and Rob on the right.

She had a hotdog, fruit and "noodles" while eating at a table just her size...



This is Lucy...we love her too.


No, you can't have him either. I'm loving his new plaid shorts. You can't see them well here, so you're just going to have to trust me...they're hot. Oh wait, see picture #1.

And THEN....as if the sandbox, friends, yummy food, sliding board and seesaw weren't enough, she had a cookie and listened to story time. She. loved. every. minute.

What fun! The pictures of Adeline listening are just precious! She is really paying attention.

I love the pictures! And tell Pat I like his new plaid shorts (and am a little jealous b/c all I get to wear is my lovely ABUs in the 120 degree heat!)

Great pics. Keep your hot husband all to yourself. Keep those plaid shorts hidden!

How fun! Btw, what is it about guys and *masculine* plaid shorts? Dave got some back in June and every time he wears them I...well, let's just say that I like them on Dave. ;-)

Those last two pictures are great -- makes me wish (even more) that I had been able to go!
