Taiger's First Barbecue

Another thing that happened while my computer was not working was have our first "REAL" meeting for Small Stones (check out more info on that at sixteensmallstones.blogspot.com)! It went SO well! Anyway, for our meeting we went to the park and had a little barbecue. Taiger LOVED it! Jeremy showed him how to turn the hot dogs and Taiger was vigilant in making sure they didn't burn (in other words, Taiger turned them every five seconds, and most of them took at least one trip to the ground...One fell on the ground, like, 7 or 8 times! HA HA! Needless to say, NO ONE would eat that one!). It was really fun for Taiger and he was SO CUTE checking the hot dogs and turning them.

SO proud of himself!!

Jeremy showing Taiger how to turn them without dropping them...HA HA! Where would the fun be in that?!

Bryttan forgot the cups, so anyone who wanted some pop had to drink from the bottle. Luckily, we are all "friends", but MORE luckily, everyone was REALLY careful not to get their mouths on the bottle...Everyone, that is, except Taiger!

Although we met at a FUN park so Taiger would have something to do while we had our meeting, Taiger spent most of his time sitting in the grass, watching the other children play. Since it was Memorial Day, the park was full of other children. Taiger DID play some, but, as anyone who knows him will attest to, Taiger likes to play with a small group of friends, or alone rather than with many new children. He likes to observe when there are more children playing, especially kids he doesn't know.
