John decided on Sunday (7/7) that we needed to have a barbecue at our house on Tuesday (7/9). We invited all the incoming Bishopric and their families and all the outgoing Bishopric and their families. Everyone was able to make it! (Christensens, Freedlands, Simmons, Cutlers, Scotts, Carters). We provided hamburgers with all the toppings, punch and cupcakes. Everyone brought a salad or side dish. There was more than enough food to go around and it was all delicious. We had chairs and tables set up outside and everyone was able to spend time relaxing and visiting with each other.
