Our Summer: The Baylor Weiner Roast 2010

I can't believe how long it has been since we posted. It seems like the second half of the summer flew by and we've been neglecting our blog. Fall has arrived in Iowa, so it is high time to look back on all the fun we had over the summer and start preparing for (what could be another) long winter ahead.

Back in July we attended the annual Baylor Wiener Roast at Aunt Sue and Uncle Phil's. As expected, we had an wonderful time. The food was spectacular- fresh corn cooked in the fire and roasted hot dogs, the company pleasant, and fond memories were made.

Here's Brian and his cousin Mark cooking over the fire.

That is, after Uncle Phil made excellent coals with the help of his trusty tractor.

Games were played- including ladder ball (a Baylor family favorite).

The highlight of the weekend was finally meeting Mark and April's daughter Lillian! She's adorable and has a sweet personality.

After a long day of playing, Hank the dog needed to take a break.
At the end of the day Brian pitched our test in the side yard for a fun evening of camping. We headed home in the morning after a very tasty breakfast of stuffed french toast. Yum! We're looking forward to next year!
