Bocce Ball and Ladderball Tournament

John and Tammy were so kind as to host a Memorial Day Weekend BBQ at their house and invite my family over as well. John set it all up in the front yard and decided to add some friendly competition to the day. I drew up some pretty fancy brackets and we had two tournaments, Ladderball, and Bocce Ball. The top three winners won gift cards! My dad and brothers came over, as well as Tammy's son and his wife. The weather was great and the games were a blast. The Vinnie's took first place in both categories! We cooked up some corn and brats on the grill, and mixed up a pitcher of mango mojitos.

The games were fun to watch and fun to play. Pat and Joey started strategizing a lot in Bocce Ball, but Vinnie came out the winner in that one. I figured my Dad would be good at these games because he is good at outdoor games. In fact just a couple weeks after this he entered in to the Utah Summer Games, which is kind of a big deal for the state, to play horseshoes and he ended up taking home the gold medal. Go Dad! :)

Big thanks to John and Tammy for all the work they put in to this BBQ. It was a blast and I look forward to the next one! :)
