Memorial Day Weekend

We had a fantastic friend and family filled Memorial Day weekend. The festivities kicked off with a BBQ pot-luck at our sweet friends Becky and Mike's house. Mike smoked delicious pork and chicken and everyone else brought sides. Becky made homemade ice-cream to complete the meal, it was perfection.

Monday, we grilled out with Alan's family and ended the night with Banana's Foster. If you haven't ever made this you should definitely try because:
1) It is delicious
2) It is so much fun to make!
