backyard BBQ shower for j+k

On Saturday, we had a backyard BBQ bash for Jon and Kelsey!  It was a really fun time filled with gingham, burlap, and all other things BBQ-y.  We had our back deck and backyard all set up with tables, chairs, corn hole, ladder ball, citronella candles, summer flowers, and homemade icecream makers. However, as everyone was arriving, big black storm clouds rolled in...but a fun time was still had by all. Here is a sneak peek at the shower:

Any BBQ bash has to have mason jars and striped straws!

The food included BBQ sliders, corn on the cob, pigs in the blanket, cupcakes, apple pie, veggies and dip, watermelon, and vanilla and oreo homemade ice cream (which I'm sad I didn't get a picture of).  Delicious!

What's a BBQ without lemonade and sweet tea?

The "backyard" BBQ bash turned into a "living room" BBQ bash...thanks,  rain.

Because of the rain, I found out that my house can indeed hold 30 people inside...yikes.

I made this towel cake for them, complete with 4 dish towels, cute bird salt and pepper shakers on top, and 4 serving utensils.  Thanks, pinterest :)
