Ahhhh Summertime

Thus far, my summer has been filled with work travel. A couple of neat highlights featured below - Las Vegas Venetian gondola rides indoors (we didn't ride, just thought this was neat):

And, a quick lunch poolside in Reno, Nevada (BEAUTIFUL!):

Now that I've been back in town, our summer has been filled with (DELICIOUS):

BBQ

And Farmer's Market goodies

First Annual Chili Cookoff

We participated in our friends' First Annual Chili Cookoff and had a great time. Unfortunately, our Pesto Chicken Chili did not win, and in fact was ranked very poorly because it contained rice! We were penalized for our creativity, haha! We're going to have to be more traditional with our recipe next year! We had a great time and we're looking forward to making it an annual event.
