Monthly Fests
So, back in the day, when Kristin and I lived in California and before kids we started a monthly tradition at our house loosely based off of Oktoberfest. Except it was monthly. If I remember correctly it was the second Tuesday of every month. Although I could be completely making that part up. Anyway. If it was January it was ‘Januaryfest’, February, ‘Februaryfest, March, Marchfest… You get the idea. Basically all it was, was a time for our friends to come over and hang out. We’d barbeque some food, and hang out. You know, a monthly excuse to hang out with people.
Well, since we’ve moved out here we haven’t really had a chance to do it. We haven’t had the time. Or really the group of people wanting to do it with us. But here we are. I’m wanting to start up this thing again. The low-key hang out at our house with food and friends appropriately named after each month.
I’m not sure if we’ll have time to fit in a Junefest, but I’ve got my sights on Julyfest. Now, I don’t know details yet, and Kristin and I haven’t even really talked about it all that much, but I think it’d be fun. Who’s in?
i am in! and i think you did make up the second tuesday thing, but i think it sounds perfect now. haha
I think it’s a very cool idea. I’d come, if you weren’t so far away.
I’m with JPeg, I think you made some of that up. With that being said, I think it’s an awesome idea!! We do something like that EVERY Wednesday, on our street. (I have plenty of pictures to PROVE it) Some Wednesdays it’s just pizza night and everyone brings dessert. My favorite is Mexican night – everyone brings Mexican themed dishes and the host usually prepares ground beef or faijta meat in the crock pot. I’m usually in charge of Italian night and make my famous spaghetti sauce. I think you should try it.
btw… we can make it to the Nashville area in about 2 hours with Claude driving. ; )
