Our Green Jacket Cookout

Saturday was just beautiful, and Ian and I decided to have a little group of friends over for a casual cookout. Thank goodness for the ease of a quickly texted invitation from Red Stamp. This is one of my favorite apps on my iPhone. With just a few quick customizations, you can easily create pretty invitations or cards and then text them, email them, upload them to social media sites, or even have them printed as postcards.


We kept the food really low-key with little pimiento cheese finger sandwiches (I snagged the quick photo before the last of them disappeared), hot dogs on the grill, watergate salad, a bean salad, pasta salad, and a charcuterie plate.


Before throwing the hot dogs on the grill, we spent a great amount of time outdoors while the guys watched the Masters tournament on the screened porch.











So although I didn't watch a bit of the Masters on Saturday, I did have a magnificent time with the friends :) Hope your weekend was pretty spectacular as well!

  21. I have a question about your dress! :) I have a few maternity maxi's from Old Navy and shockingly the length is perfect for me at 5'2 (this NEVER happens!). I love that dress and it's on sale for $19.99 with an extra 30% this morning until 12.. well my question is how is the length for you? I would be ordering a small, but all the reviews have people taller saying it's the perfect length.. so I am a bit nervous. Thank you!! :)
