Veteran's Day "Pig" Roast...

We had a great time at our Veteran's Day cook out yesterday!  Unfortunately Chris and his dad didn't kill any pigs  during their hog hunt (imagine me slightly chuckling and breathing a sigh of relief all at the same time) so the title may be more appropriately named Veteran's Day "Sam's-Club-Pork-Shoulder" Roast.  Regardless, the guys cooked it in the outdoor pig cooker and it turned out perfectly!

Right off the smoker...

Check out that bounce house!

Clare made the cutest dessert...

I think he likes it...
Charlie received a unanimous thumbs-up from everyone.
He is, most certainly, the most chill puppy we've ever met.

This has become a favorite new activity...

Lots of wagon walks with Charlie!

It was a great day-- the weather was absolutely gorgeous, the company was fantastic and all of the food was delicious!  Thanks to everyone who came and brought stuff and made the day special.  We appreciate it.

I am a stay-at-home mom to 3 energetic, funny, sweet, and crazy boys. I married my best friend, Chris, and love our life together. The Army is sending him overseas soon so I thought this blog would be a great way for him (and the grandparents!) to keep up with our hectic life. Unfortunately the Army keeps us too far from family and most of our friends so hopefully this will help us stay connected.
