Happy Memorial Day! I was a little sad to be missing out on Lissa's fantastic Memorial Day party she has every year. So I decided I would have one of my own! I had a lot to live up to since Lissa's were always so fun so I did what I could! We had an Americana theme being Memorial Day and all...flags, streamers, flag decorations, and a lot of red white and blue accessories! We had a bubble machine for the littles, and sandbox, water games, and a lot of good food! I wish I could have talked some of you Arizonians to come down here to join in on the fun! We missed all of you!
I got some new seasonings from McCormicks Grill Mates to use at our bbq.... Molasses Bacon seasoning, Brown sugar and bourbon barbeque sauce, Memphis Pit bbq rub, Montreal Steak seasoning, and Spiced Brandy marinade. Why do I need to tell you all the different spices we used? Because they were DELICIOUS!!! :) We had all sorts of meat since all of our guests brought some, so we were able to try them all. Can I just say that the Bacon Molasses seasoning is to die for? I havnt had such a good burger in a LONG time!
Apparently Zach has forgotten how to grill hotdogs...this is how all the kids food turned out. It was black...and I mean Black! It must have still tasted good though because Jocy stll tried to eat it! haha. Thank goodness for good seasoning! lol
Here are just a few of the people we had come. I love having good friends. :)
We had a lot of food! We used the middle table to taste all the seasonings and prepare the meat.
The bubble machine...How cute is that?! You cant see the bubbles very well but they were spitting a lot out and the kids loved it.
The "sand box" Really it is a sand volleyball court, but whatever works right?
Zach preparing out hamburgers....
He was really excited....
Yum!
The girls getting ready for the bbq!
This is a video with Jocy's charred hotdog. I say yucky, but apparently she thought it was delicious!
I hope you all a great Memorial Day!
