My hubby and I made a photo booth out of PVC pipe and a sheet. I cut up scraps of red, white, and blue material to make a banner to stretch across the backdrop. Tutorial to come :).
We wanted everyone to mingle and get involved, so what better way than having games with prizes? We had ring toss in the pool, where we stuck a ring toss game on an awesome patriotic inner tube I found at Target. Then, we had Balloon Darts. Jordan made a dart board with balloons that mimicked the American Flag. Lastly, we had an intense game of bingo! Everyone had a blast and the winners walked away with $10 to In-N-Out!
There you have it! Our 4th of July BBQ was a success! We had so much fun that I can’t wait for next year!
