Ryan made smoked pork and I made baked beans, corn on the cob and other garden-fresh sides. Of course we had s’mores for dessert.
I always enjoy the spectator sport of opening gifts. But, it’s especially entertaining when a guy is involved.
(And, as an aside – I officially want one of these Longaberger wine coolers.)
All-in-all, a productive night. And, by the end of the year, 2 of the 3 of these boys are gonna be hitched. 😉
And the obligatory shot of Ryan and I. (Thanks to Betty for taking all these photos and sharing them with me.)
We’re really happy for you, Jessi and Haarzy! Thanks for letting us play a little part in celebrating your upcoming union.
