Stake BBQ

No, I didn't misspell "steak."  In Mormonspeak, a "stake" is the umbrella organization above a local congregation, or "ward."  There are usually about 7-11 wards in a stake.  Today was the annual stake BBQ and it is always a big event.

For the past few years dinner has been delicious, succulent pulled pork with BBQ sauce, ranch beans, coleslaw, and a wonderful thin flour tortilla.  In addition there is a big dessert table with cookies and cupcakes.  This year was no different and I was glad.  There was also a free snow cone booth, jumping castles for the kids, along with a fishing pond (prizes), face painting, and a football game.

Here are two of my girls with their pretty face art:

 Elizabeth got this one first and it is a vine of roses.

This came second and it's dead roses.  Her idea.  Funny!
