Memorial day!

Happy Memorial day peeps!

We all decided since grandpa had a day off to make the most of it and head out to Folsom Lake.

On the way we figured it’d be awesome to get something to burn on the fire – like a steak. So dutifully prepared with pasta salad and a nice frying pan that could handle fire temperatures – we headed off to the store to pick up aforementioned protein that needed burning.

Here Captain Awesome (Logan) is learning how to drive. You can tell how seriously he takes this job.

Meanwhile, daddy and I threw the meat into the Ziploc containing the spices we wanted to marinate the meat in and poured the ice with sodas into the ice chest.

Here Logan is wondering, Why, oh Why we put him in midst of such harsh elements. On the way to our spot we nearly squished a rattle snake. Sun was blazing, water too cold to swim. Basically perfect summer day J Luckily our spot was beautifully aired and shaded. Basically, it was the best of all worlds.

Here's me cooking, daddy presenting:

Everyone enjoyed the food immensely. That includes the dogs. Of course the questions might be raised as to how one keeps the delicious meats AWAY from the beasts – well let’s just say their inner most self, no matter how domesticated, still afraid of fire and mothers.

Our trek back to the car was uneventful. We found some pretty wild flowers and poor Brent’s pants were totally falling off. So we took one of those memorable pictures that we can show to you future wife Brent dear.
