Hangin' with Our Girls~

It is a rare occasion these days, but Saturday brought an opportunity to cookout with BOTH of our girls.  With our youngest home from college for the summer and our oldest finishing up her student teaching, this past weekend was a chance to hang out as a family.  Of course we welcomed the addition of Elie's sweet boyfriend and a college friend as well.

We enjoyed some seriously good food...I will let the pictures speak for themselves.

Ribs!  Oh my...honey dry rubbed some and others were smothered and covered with an apricot-bourbon bbq sauce made from scratch.  Finger lickin' good!

Fresh corn on the cob, little bit of olive oil and Trader Joes 21 Seasoning Salute!

Pasta Salad-tri color noodles with Newman's Own Family Style Salad Dressing.

Cubed mozzarella-topping #1 for the pasta salad.

Quartered pepperoni-topping #2 for the pasta salad.

Sliced black olives-topping #3 for the pasta salad.

Fresh grape tomatoes-topping #4 for the pasta salad.

I like having the toppings available on the side so everyone can chose what they like.

YUM!!!  Berry Cobbler that our youngest made from a recipe in her Lilly Pulitzer Book.  Screams SUMMERTIME!
Add a dollop of vanilla ice cream, and you are in Heaven!!

We finished the evening off with a game of Apples to Apples...lets just say...#2 kicked everyone's booty!
