Sunday Afternoon at Grandma & Grandpa's

Sunday we visited Wayne's Mom & Dad and also got to see his Grandma and his Sister & her family while we were there! The weather was nice and Mason had so much fun playing with his cousins, Lexi and Haley. We also got to eat homemade stew that Wayne's Mom, Clova, made. Yum!

Good Ole Redneck BBQ

Smoked ribs, half chickens & brisket + classic country + horseshoes & cornhole + kids running around getting dirty + tents + a keg + American flags = Good Ole Redneck BBQ!!!
And it wasn't even the 4th of July! I'm a little behind on blogging, so I'm getting caught up on the last few weekends. We went to Wayne's parent's for a huge BBQ for my Mother-in-Law's birthday. It was originally meant to be a family thing, but my FIl got a little carried away inviting friends. There were like 50 people there, 40 if which we did not know. Neverthless, it was a good time!!

Thanksgiving Number 2

Saturday we had Thanksgiving with Wayne's family. It was the first year that our families had thier get-togethers on different days, so it was really nice to be able to enjoy ourselves and not be rushed or really over-stuffed.
Mason had such a good time playing with his cousins and was very well-behaved, unlike these pictures show! I got to looking at them and it looks like he's being naughty!
