We invited a handful of friends and neighbors and their kids. We had sidewalk chalk, crayons and of course the playground for the kids. I was afraid that the kids would be bored and ready to leave after 30 minutes but they actually all had a blast playing with Ollie's toys.
Oliver went to bed at 7:00 and I was a little worried that with all the noise of the people and kids running around everywhere that it would interfere with his sleep but of course he slept through it all!! Woohoo!
Jacob was quite the chef. He made twice-baked potatoes and BBQ chicken and steaks for everyone. I made a pasta salad that was quite the hit. Jacob insisted that we serve baked beans. I am not a fan of baked beans and thought that we would probably end up with a pit full of them at the end of the night and I was RIGHT...HA!

After a long night of playing Logan was ready to make the "long" walk home!!
The BBQ was a huge success! We had so much fun spending time with everyone and we hope to do again soon. I have realized that during the first year of your child's life it can be difficult to keep a social calendar but making time for family and friends is so important! Thanks for coming and we LOVE you all!!
