Buckeyes Party

Last Saturday, Eric & I went to the ULTIMATE backyard buckeyes party with our friends Christy & Kurtis. It was held in Christy's Aunt & Uncle's neighborhood. It was such a hit even channel 6 ABC news was there :) The hosts had a projector screen (about the size of a movie theatre screen!) set up outside with picnic tables and chairs spread all over the lawn and everyone could bring their own chairs too if they wanted! They had a hog roast and ALL the food you could imagine!! Movie theatre popcorn, desserts, apple cider, appetizers, you name it! Literally their whole garage was filled with nothing but food and drinks!! I guess the neighborhood deal was everyone who wanted to be invited gave the hosts $100 which covered a share of the hog and they could invite 5 other couples as well. It was such a fun idea and even though we had no idea who everyone was (it was dark by the time the game started!) we had a blast watching the buckeyes on this huge projector and socializing!

Here's some pics of our fun evening...

Labor Day Cookout

I had to work on this beautiful labor day weekend, but we had some friends & neighbors over on Monday for a little cookout & a couple rounds of corn hole to celebrate labor day! It was a good time! Eric has really been getting into this corn hole game lately. He even brought the flood lights out when it got too dark to see where you were throwing...because the game must go on :o) In case you've never heard of corn hole, its basically like horse shoes only instead of trying to loop your horse shoe around a stake you try to throw your corn-filled bean bag through a hole on a platform. Here's a couple pics...
















Of course Portia had to get in on the fun too... :o)
