A friend emailed us on Friday inviting us to a get-together at Burnt Cedar beach. The plan was for several families to have a good old-fashioned picnic for dinner on Sunday. The location was a grassy jetty/peninsula at the beach. I think it was originally built to create a calm swimming area for beach-goers. We joined about ten other families/couples for the picnic and enjoyed great food and company. We took some mini pizzas I made that were topped with fresh pesto and a variety of veggies on a whole wheat crust. Yum! We also sampled a variety of salads, and side dishes as well as some elk steak from a successful hunting trip in Eastern Nevada that one of our friends had. Ben and most of the other kids spent the majority of their time playing on the rocks and the beach while the adults and babies hung out in the grass. It's funny because our family happened to put our blanket out right on the spot where Brian proposed to me.
We all had lots of fun, filled our bellies, and stayed until the nearly full moon was rising. Sam loved hanging with his little friend Chloe who is his junior at only 14 weeks old. She seemed to like him too.
