The end of April is here; Spring Break is over; I’m counting down the days until school lets out for Summer Vacation! Just six more weeks of alarm clocks and grouchy mornings. I’ve started cleaning up the yard, but there is just so much to do. I honestly don’t know if I’ll actually get it all done.

No matter, because I’ll still have friends over to cookout soon! It’s time to inspire you with these fun Outdoor Entertaining Favorites for food, drinks, and crafts to get you ready for your first outdoor gathering of the year.
