As I told you last week, we drew names to see who would be planning each week's Family Fun Night. This week it was Patrick and Brenna's turn. These two are so creative, so I knew we were going to have a great time!
We began our evening by being welcomed to Hot Dog Island. They were ready with their hot dog deli hats. They said we were going to be experiencing The Great American Hot Dog Festival. Yippee! They looked up recipes of 5 different kinds of hot dogs from around the United States.
And then we ordered from our cutie-pie waitress. Of course I wanted to sample them all! :o)
Elisabeth started with the Slaw Dog from the south. Joshua had The New York System Dog from Rhode Island. They both loved them!
I tried the Sonoma Hot Dog from Arizona,
And the Chicago Dog from Chicago, of course!
But our hands down favorite was this delicious dog...The Puka Dog from Hawaii. It was a amazing with its' guava relish and bacon, Oh la la!!! We're definitely adding this into our monthly menus!
Then, they made homemade ice cream cones in the shape of a hot dog bun. They were absolutely wonderful.
And for Callie and Silas they made them cup shaped.
They also had fun Hot Dog trivia. Do you know that the number one topping for hot dogs is Mustard? Yum...love that stuff on my hot dogs, too!
It was a great FFN! We laughed and stuffed ourselves and made lots of memories! Next week, it's Joshua's turn.
Wow! Your family is really creative! I like mustard on my hot dogs too.

It is the homemade ice cream cones on allrecipes.com
They are sooo good. Just don't make them the night before, that made them too soft, so we had to make them again.
Happy Eating!
