What a busy week it’s been! And the weekend is shaping up to be no different, which makes me ever so grateful for that extra day we’re going to get on Monday. The hubs and I will be traveling to Phoenix for my baby sister’s high school graduation. It’s hard to believe that the little baby whose umbilical chord I cut 18 years ago (yes, I was 10, and got to be in the delivery room!) is heading off to college already. Time sure flies!

Anyway, seeing as how so many of you will be celebrating a much-needed day off this weekend, I decided a roundup of my favorite BBQ ideas from pinterest would be so much better than a typical Friday Favs. Let me know which of these you plan to try, or if you have any of your own ideas up your sleeve…
