[15] started to rain, so we* went back to the house to grill banana boats!
*an incredibly alarming picture. we are extremely excited about this endeavor.
[16] grilled banana boats: cut open your banana, add various things that make said banana unhealthy, wrap in foil & grill for about 10 minutes.
[17] zucchini boats & homemade mac. incredibly sunday lunch.
[18] afternoon snack of frozen grapes, our* new fav!
*possibly the only picture in existence in which sara is in a dress and i'm in shorts.

A wonderful weekend with people we love!
Thanks, Winks!
