Choose Happy by Enjoying the Flavor


Although, I didn't follow the challenge directions very well this week... We are enjoying the flavors of summer by having a HELLO SUMMER BBQ, which was very exciting!  This week's challenge was to Enjoy the flavor by trying something new & trying something your kids haven't experienced before. Well for us, it will be our first family BBQ experience of the summer. 

Thursday evening, we decided to start summer off right with an obligatory barbeque with Hamburgers & all the toppings, corn on the cob & fresh homemade lemonade! First time making homemade lemonade this year -YUMMMM!!! I had to call my dad for our favorite family lemonade recipe and he gladly shared.

The kids made the lemonade themselves with just a little help from me! I cut the lemons in half, they did all the squeezing and stirring! It was delicious! I love seeing them get excited to help cook and make meals together as a family. We believe it is very important for all of us to do our part and learn together.

We added our favorite picnic table cloth to the patio table & we were set to have our fresh lemonade!

My son peeled all of the corn. He is such a big helper! The corn was delicious & we all had 2 helpings!  Having fresh corn on the cob, definitely reminds me of summer!




The hamburgers with grilled mushrooms, onions and avocado were incredible!  I would eat this meal daily if I could!

Dinner is served! Perfect HELLO SUMMER picnic on the deck! We are all ready to enjoy our summer together as a family & we enjoyed these first flavors of summer!
