An Oregon Barbecue

On Saturday we went to a barbecue at our friends' home in Junction City! We traveled the 1 1/2 hours south to enjoy a barbecue at their country home. It was a typical Oregon day - upper 60s, grey skies and rain coming down, but that didn't stop anyone from showing up to the barbecue and we had a GREAT time! There was a TON of great food, fabulous drinks and around 75 people who all withstood the on and off again rain by standing under awnings and around HUGE bonfire pits that kept us all warm.

A funny side story ~ My friend's sister-in-law recently moved up from California and was quite concerned that the BBQ was still going to take place in the rain. Little does she know a little drizzle doesn't phase an Oregonian.

When Ryan went to bed Saturday night he proclaimed it was "the best day of his life" because he had so much fun! Unfortunately I didn't take any pictures to show off the smiles that were plastered from ear to ear on the kids' faces.
