Summer Picnic - Free Flu Included!

My playgroup and I decided to have a summer picnic.  We had about 90 people that came to the picnic.  It was the highlight of my summer!!  I was very sad when it ended quickly for me because I got the Flu and ended up leaving early!  Who gets the Flu in the middle of the summer?   Not fun!  I woke up on Monday ready to party - and the party was over!!!  I couldn't even enjoy it - because I was trying to figure out if I was sick from stress or if I was really sick.  Sadly - I was really sick and it sounds like about 14 others got the flu from me that night!!!  So not only did we have an awesome turnout and people had lots of fun - I handed them the FLU!  Hmm... wonder how many will return next year for our Summer Picnic!

I wanted to take a ton of pictures - but since I was not feeling well - it was the last thing on my mind.  We had Haystacks with a Watermelon theme.  We had buckets at everyone's tables with Chips, Homemade Salsa from Joanne and Homemade Guacamole from Anne.  Everyone brought food and it went great!  We pounded through 12 lbs of Hamburger and 1 lg box and 1 sm box of Rice.  Here we thought we had plenty of meat and rice - ops!  

 Plenty of toppings for the haystacks.

But thankfully no one went hungry.  We had a 

yummy Watermelon Alley with lots of sweets & treats.

Yummy Watermelon Cupcakes that Tami made. 

 Watermelon Cut-out cookies that Rachel made that got inhaled. 

 Ants on a Log - that Joanne made.

 Watermelon & Lots of Jell-o by Tonya

 Later in the evening we served and 

Ice-Cream Buffet with brownies & lots of toppings. 

Thanks to everyone who brought food!
