Perfect Kick-Off!

School's out and summer is here! I kicked-off summer by planting a mojito garden. It's kind of like a salsa garden, but I will be harvesting mint and strawberries to make delicious mojitos all summer long. I've already tested out the mint (delicious), but will need to wait a few weeks for some strawberries.

We also met some friends and Kyle's co-workers for a pre-game lunch and then an afternoon baseball game in Minneapolis. Who knew I would have to move to MN to watch the Cubs play? It was a lovely afternoon...thankfully in the shade, then we came home to a surprise visit from Kyle's brother, BJ. Some drinks, appetizers, grilling out, and then dessert, and we were all worn out from a perfect summer day. Good food, friends, and family...how could this summer get any better?
