cornhole with the in-laws

Bryan's parents just spent 5 weeks visiting us from California. They stayed at my parents apartment, immersed themselves in Trace's life and helped out in every way possible. Bryan's dad is Mr. Fix-It, so we quickly put him to work installing our Safe Rack, helping us start a garden, adding some shelving to various closets and so much more! We had a blast having them out with us -- I might be the only daughter in-law to ever say that and genuinely mean it -- and were lucky to end their stay in Charlotte with Bryan's brother, Jimmy, who flew in the night before my in-laws headed home. We spent that evening in our backyard together playing in a fierce cornhole tournament against each other, BBQing some chicken and eating dinner outside. I envision this to be a precursor to what the rest of our summer will look like...


As the sun started to go down for the day, Bryan and I faced off in a hilarious round. Needless to say, he kicked butt and I was sent back to my lounge chair to watch his dad kill him in the finals. Watching Bryan lose is quite a sight, and let me tell you, this loss was a memorable one!
