| Dave & David on the grill! Teamwork! |
Today we just couldn't stand it any more!!!! It had been over two full months since we entertained! Since we had a cook out!!! So we ran up to the grocery store and bought a grill, 64 hamburger patties and 100 hotdogs, plus all the fixin's. Then we proceeded to set up shop next to the base pool and started grillin. No invitations needed. Just the aroma of fresh grilled meet brought quite a crowd. We think we had over 100 folks show up. It was one of the best Memorial Day's cookouts we've ever had. Canadians, Norweigen's, Koreans, etc. all asking, "So what is this holiday all about?" Made us proud to be Americans and even more thankful to all those that have served, especially those that have given their lives.
Our feast was especially appreciated because the kitchen was closed for lunch and dinner today in recognition of the holiday. It was just a good ole' fashion picnic full or old friends and many new.
Plus it was a great opportunity for our family to serve and we had forgotten the joy we get in entertaining and fellowship. David made a great "Memorial Day Free Picnic" sign and was my perfect assistant as we fed the masses. The ladies set up a buffet and looked as beautiful as ever. Great day :)
P.S. Jess is such a great photographer that we never get any shots of her!!! We will work on that!!! Sorry, she's as beautiful as ever! All the young ladies look up to her here on the base for her beauty and gentleness, inside and out.
