About 3 or 4 years ago…I visited Big Lake for the first time…and fell in love with its home town community feel and amazing view! We got to hang out at an old fashioned home town bar-b-q…full of yummy hamburgers, salads, and an impromptu cupcake war: it was a tie. It was so fun for the kiddos who won prizes for gunny sack races….brilliant idea! Then we settled in for the amazing Big Lake Fire Department Fireworks Show! It rivaled any fireworks show I’ve seen…and i loved that it was over the lake.
PS>>>if anyone on Big Lake wants to lend me their house for the summer…just let me know! :)
My friend Heather made these yummo apple hand pies! She told me the secret to these cute puppies…store bought pie crust! I was so happy she shared her secret, because I never would have attempted them…but now….I’m thinking for Thanksgiving! :)
My gals from highschool….gotta say…its a so wonderful to have friends that have known me since I was in 3rd grade.
New tradition for the Eylander Family…Gunny Sack races at every party….but you gotta have prizes…to motivate!
The kids were feelin pretty confident…they wanted to take on the daddies!
As the night was winding down, I loved that Pam was bringing coffee with all the fixins to all the families waiting for the fireworks to begin! So cute!
You captured the joy of the day so well! I was delighted to meet you and now to enjoy your blog.
