One of my favorite traditions


Memorial Day. A long weekend. Good friends. Catching up with everyone's family. RIBS! This year was no exception. 164 lbs of ribs went on the pit at 9 am. At 3 the ribs were done. After being bathed in the vinegar-based sauce for 6 hours, perfection was achieved. The festivities are at Mr. & Mrs. Buit's home. Their son Rob is a friend from high school. His older brother Steve is also a great friend.

We have an incredible group of friends that have stayed close for over 25 years. It's wonderful that over the years "the gang" has grown with the addition of spouses and children. The Saturday of Memorial Day weekend Mr. and Mrs. Buit graciously host a Ribfest. They live directly across from the neighborhood "lake." Emma was very excited to have the opportunity to use a gift from Grandpa Meyers... a new fishing pole. My girly-girl loves to fish, but she won't take them off the hook.
