The GCI team celebrated Memorial Day this year like many other Americans, with a good old-fashioned BBQ. The three-day weekend started out rainy & cold, having many of us believing our BBQ fun was going to be limited to indoors this year. But Monday afternoon the clouds parted and sunshine beamed down on us. The day spent at the Miller’s and Lovelady’s was absolutely gorgeous. The festivities included a satisfying feast of hamburgers, huge slabs of ribs, delicious black bean burgers (of course, we couldn’t leave out our vegetarians) a fresh cilantro salad, potato salad, strawberry cream pies, homemade peanut butter & chocolate chip cookies and so much more yumminess.

With it being such a beautiful day, a brave few decided they would try out their rafting skills out on the lake. The challenge was that not only was the water chilly, but we only had access to old cheap floaties that hardly any of us could fit on. Enjoy the hilarious videos of our attempts!

After the fun of rafting we headed back for some intense ping-pong action. A few rounds later, we decided that regular ping-pong was not enough of a challenge. Being the creative folks that are, we kicked it up a notch by playing with seven people at a time and with random items we could find in the garage. Enjoy the madness !
