Matt and I decided at the 11th hour to have a little backyard fun with some friends. We enticed them to join us with our gourmet food (hotdogs...), the terrific weather (50+ mph winds...), and our awesome backyard games (old limbo set, deflated beach balls, and other random crap...)!
Took a few shots of the gang as the day went on (we ended up taking down the gazebo, as we were afraid we would end up KILLING our friends as it launched across the backyard in the hurricane-force winds...). Anyway, Carter and Avery still had fun throwing random lawn games at everyone:

Madison (Avery's big sis) even taught Carter how to use his swing (before then, Carter was quite terrified of it...). However, he only wanted to climb up in it backwards and be pushed by Mommy:

Oh well, it was still a hoot!

Tyson and Jennifer enjoying the awesome food:

David and Avery playing modified jai alai (they used bean bags instead of a ball):

Brett wasn't able to play with the correct basket thingy, so he used a kid-sized shovel:

Carter was ready to limbo, but ended up impaling himself on the pole...so mean 'ol Mommy took it down:

Mary Beth and Dan just watched from the sidelines (and Mary Beth is pregnant with Baby Luke - doesn't she look AMAZING!?!?!):

All in all, it was STILL a good time! We didn't capture all of our friends on camera, as Carter was a royal terror and was cranky, cranky, cranky! Oh well, next time we'll halt the winds and have a jolly time in the backyard with all of our pals (and we'll make sure Carter gets a nap beforehand!)! Thanks to everyone that came out!
