My neighbors had between 60-80 people over on Saturday, and my wife and I were the only honkeys. I made probably 30 new friends and ate like a king. They smoked a whole hog and a few chickens, plus all the sides you could imagine. Grilled corn, greens, fresh salad, pasta salad with jumbo shrimp and cracked pepper, sliced home grown tomatoes, and more.
The DJ was great as well. All the classic soul hits that it felt like he was playing a soundtrack. Everyone couldn't have been nicer, and even got my wife to dance. The DJ area and bar was separated as my neighbor explained "I like to keep the drinking folk and church folk apart", and it worked perfectly.
In the pic I'm pointing to my neighbor Will, and my pic does not do his house justice. That place is both huge and gorgeous. His son Jeff is to my camera right, and niece Rolanda to my camera left. My wife is pretty easy to spot.
My face doesn't usually look that fat (but yes, I'm a tall drink of water):
