It was the hottest day ever...whew! The majority of people relaxed and played in the pool, and a handful preferred the shade. Overall though, everyone seemed to have a great time!
Everyone brought some food to share -- a snack or a side dish or a dessert. We provided the BBQ meats and the sangria! We had sausage, chicken and brisket; lots of different chips and dips; steamed broccoli; lots of fruits and dips; a crockpot of beans; green beans; fruity pebbles treats; cookies; cobbler; strawberry lemon bars. It was all so tasty!! And I made a pretty tasty sangria! And the beer was plentiful (it was BYOB)...
We played some yard games once the sun started going down...and once it got dark, some of the guys shot off some fireworks while we sat on the deck watching...and then a few people even took a late night swim! The last party-goers left around 11:45 or so...and we did a bit of clean up before crashing into bed...
