Charity BBQ

Luke and I have started a new tradition.....since we love throwing parties and opening our house up to our family & friends, we decided to add another annual party to the year. For the last few years we have hosted an annual Christmas party in winter, but we have now started a new tradition of hosting a party at the start of summer, benefiting a local charity. This year we chose the Cook's Children's Medical Center. We asked each of our guests to bring either a book, board game or teddy bear to donate. It was a GREAT turnout. The house was packed! Obviously many of our friends have children now so there were lots of kids running around to keep the energy high!
Here are some pics!
