Snacking al fresco!

On the weekend we spent a lot of time (and money!) at Lowe's buying lots of outdoor items - chairs for the kids, table and chairs for the patio area, a BBQ, lawnmower, chair for me for when the kids are playing out front, etc, etc.  On Tuesday when it was all delivered, Leighton was super excited and wanted to have snack outside.







We are excited for my parents to arrive tomorrow so we can test out the BBQ and eat outside all week!

    Becky I am in love with your blog...awesome.

    I do sense a trend towards food related topics and I see that I'm quickly going to end up with a whole collection of new recipes to try!

    Keep up the good work :-)

  3. Hope your having fun with your parents. Sounds like you are truly getting settled. You need to post pics of your first BBQ.

  4. My Mom even said that we better take a picture of the first meal on the BBQ, but then we didn't. I can tell you what it was though! Does that count? Salmon, asparagus, and garlic bread. It was so tasty! We've done something on there every night since too - burgers with sweet potato 'fries', Greek marinated pork, and hot dogs. Tomorrow night is chicken. And on the weekend we will try steaks and also pizzas. I love having a BBQ - and the nice weather to use it in. When are you coming to visit?!?!

  7. I think we spent more on our outdoor dining furniture than our inside and with this climate, we use it a lot more!
