Cookout at the IOP

On Tuesday evening, we had a cookout to visit and to greet Aunt Pat who had arrived on Tuesday morning. When we got to the cookout area, they were just starting to bring out some chair and the table. Soon, Granny, Aunt Pat, and Jennifer came down. We all visited for a while. Soon the burgers and hot dogs were ready, so we all enjoyed dinner.

After dinner, John took Mason, Emily, Daddy, and the other big kids out to the pier to try fishing, while the little ones and I hung out at the cookout area. Blake, Ansley, and Bailey thoroughly enjoyed feeding the birds with leftovers. And Ansley did her impression of Ray Charles (see photo =) ). After a while, the fishers came back. They had a lot of fun, but surprisingly had not caught a thing.
