Mystery Ingredient – 4FP

On Saturday, July 7th we hosted a four family party at our house.  For this get together we decided to do a modifiation of the food tv show called Chopped.  Each family would get an ingredient and a course and they would have to put those things together to come up with something for everyone to enjoy!  The Brocketts didn’t fully participate because Jim was out of town, so for the families that were in we had Scott and Crista bringing an appetizer that contained lime juice, Cheri and Craig bringing a main course that contained coconut and we had to provide a dessert with chocolate (we got lucky with our pick!).  As always, the food was plentiful and the conversations were fun and never ceasing.  We ended this party with a serious BANG!  We had received from one of Conner’s friends at work some fireworks.  Let’s just say these were not the kind of fireworks you can buy at Wal-Mart!  They were AWESOME!  It was as if we had our very own fireworks show in the backyard.  There were a couple scary moments – when they shot into the trees for example – but no one got hurt, and everyone laughed, and we made memories that will last for a long time to come!

Here are some photos from the night (although I didn’t get any of the fireworks show!)
