a little food + some friends = lots of fun

Two weeks ago we had a backyard party.....

we invited two small groups from our church. One of the groups being our own. My step mom came over and prepared all of the food which included:
Curry Chicken
Asian Beef
Rice
Egg Rolls
and for dessert:
Rice Custard
She charged $10/per person as a fund raiser for my sisters college expenses this fall.
MMMMmmmmm...I love when she cooks!! I think everyone else did as well! I esp. loved when at the end of the evening I came into a spot free kitchen with all the dishes washed and put away.

The best part was the un-interrupted conversation and hysterical laughing that took place that night.

Man I love our church! I love the people. I love connecting with people in a new way, in a different setting.

Thanks for such a fun night my friends.

Thanks Julie for emailing the pictures...you did a great job capturing the night in photos! Finally one picture of you....And it may need a little explaining for anyone not there that evening. Julie was thinking it would be sweet to have a picture with her and her hubby in the hammock swing, however when she went to sit in front of Ed...he threw up his hands and freaked out thinking that she would make the hammock fall down. Now did I get that right Ed...or would you like to set the story straight??
