Cody's BBQ....at our house!

















So Cody calls me the other day and said "I think we should have a bbq on Saturday because the "gang" hasn't had a get together in a while." So I said "yeah, that does sound like fun" and he said "ok great! We'll have it at your house!" Sucker!!! I of course complained because I haven't had a ton of energy lately and even though I love a good party I always hate the fact that you have to clean BEFORE everyone comes over and then you have to clean AFTER everyone leaves! So how did I solve that problem....I told Cody he had to come help me clean before the party! So here's some of us in the backyard---Jed was busy grilling on the bbq. I was thinking last night how funny it is the original "gang" of about 10 friends that started about 10 years ago and turned into almost 25 just in the last 4 years with marriages and kids added to the bunch!

















I had to wake Payton up for the picture below to show off the cute outfit she was wearing.......yes, I bought it for her! Isn't she so stinkin cute! I just thought it was so thoughtful of her to wear my outfit to my party to make me know she likes it. That Payton is just a real sweet girl like that!






















I love the picture of Chase below. Can you say "wide eyes". I'm thinking we should have entered Chase in Rylee's staring contest she as having with all of us---he would have won for sure! And of course I had to include the last picture of Missy and her new "friend". We were laughing last night that he's been in the "gang" for a few weeks now so he is now "blog-worthy" and can be posted on our blogs! His name is Joel and we think he's a keeper.

Really cute outfit on Payton. Doesn't hurt that she herself is Dang cute. Thanks for the darling outfit for Gibson. He also wore his on Saturday but to his Grandma's wedding. Wish we could have been there.
