Last Minute 4th of July BBQ

Our original 4th of July plans changed last night. So we quickly pulled together some friends and had a party of our own. Thanks to the Allens and the Fifes for joining in our last minute party!!! Love you guys! We had an awesome BBQ, sides and a delicious dessert!!! Fun times!

BBQ Disaster

So...
we learned something about our new house today.
**It is NOT Montana WIND-proof.**
Put together for 5 days and used only twice- our BBQ blew away and got smashed & dented to make it look like we've had it for years. The only reason that it didn't fly away completely was that it was hooked to the gas line. I know... super safe. The storm seriously came in so quickly and blew everything off my back COVERED deck. I lost one of my gorgeous red Adirondack chairs. Broke the arm rest off. I'm so sad!!!
Oh well. That's life sometimes. Now, it's back to Lowes to buy something to tie everything down. Grrr!
