Father's Day

We had a nice relaxing Father's Day. We bought our first bbq grill on Saturday--since we live in a hurricane area, we decided we had better get a grill. We don't have a gas stove in our house, so this will be our only mode of cooking when a hurricane hits and the power goes out. Good excuse? Anyway, if you know me, I have been watching the sales at nearby stores and gathering my coupons to use when the time was right. The time was right on Saturday. Cody LOVES it and we cooked our entire dinner on it yesterday. Take a look.

We had the BEST shish kabobs I have ever had in my life. I googled a recipe for a marinade and it turned out awesome! The chicken literally melted in your mouth. Wrapped in the foil are purple potatoes with seasoning and extra virgin olive oil. I highly recommend this meal sometime soon. I'll post the marinade recipe soon.

On another note, Cody went shark fishing with the young men in another ward. He had a great time and they obviously caught a shark. I won't give you the details on how they kill them--trust me, you don't want to know. I was not too fond of him going shark fishing, but I laid down some terms and then I was okay with it. I just didn't want him to be the one on the kayak in the dark taking the bait out to the hungry sharks. No thank you. Even if we did just drastically up our life insurance policy. I'd rather have my husband. And yes, he is fully aware that he looks really skinny in this picture. He does eat and he does eat a lot. He's just really fit. :)

That pretty much sums up our weekend. Happy Father's Day to all of the wonderful men in my life.
