Family BBQ

We started our week off with a little family get together last night.  All day there was a storm watch, and it was getting cooler, windier, and darker ... but as I had hoped, it passed us by, and we were able to hang out in the backyard for the evening.  We snacked inside until everyone arrived:

And then we went out back and BBQd some burgers.  We enjoyed those with a few sides:

Dessert was store-bought cookies, and homemade burnt grapes.

 

Christopher spent the evening tossing a football around with the kids; it was pretty cute.  Our nephew Giovanni started football this past weekend, and we're looking forward to seeing his team play a game this fall.

Once the mosquitoes came out, we moved inside and visited a while longer before calling it a night.  It was a nice way to spend a Monday evening.

The forecast for the week is looking a little rainy, so I might get some stuff done around the house, do some reading, and some prepping/ planning for the fall in the next couple of days. 

Do you have any fun plans for this week?
