Rain Out :(

I’ve got one disappointed guy on my hands today… This was supposed to be Thade’s last day of Day Camp, and Craft Camp, but as you’ve probably already guessed, Day Camp was rained out… I called the Community Center to check and see if the Camp was moved indoors for the day, and nope, it was canceled completely.

Thade still has his Craft Camp for this afternoon, it is indoors, so no rain outs. I just hope that we can cheer up Thade, he was really looking forward to his last day of camp.

B.Y.O.B. Indoor/Outdoor-a-Q

This year I’m hostessing the Fourth of July BBQ, and I’m planning ahead for the weather. In Fourth of July past, it is either too hot, and we hang out indoors until nighttime, or it is raining, and we hang out indoors and play games. Either way it is always fun!

I’m keeping the menu simple and flexible. I can grill outside, or set up the grill pan indoors and still get the grilling job done. A few of the dishes I can assemble the day before, so it will make everything extra simple on the day of the BBQ. I’m also trying to stay on track with the budget ($35), by asking everyone to bring their favorite beverages.

Here is the menu for the party:

  • BBQ Chicken
  • Grilled Hot Dogs
  • Pasta Salad
  • Veggie Tray
  • Chips and Dip
  • Cherry Jell-O Cake
  • Iced Sweet Tea and Ice Cold Lemonade

I’m looking forward to the Fireworks and spending time with the family, rain or shine…

Do you have a Fourth of July BBQ planned? If so what dishes are you serving?
