Retirement BBQ - Ideas needed

HulaLove

My mama is retiring in August and we're having a big celebration BBQ for her.  

We're BBQing steaks and chicken.  Having baked beans and lots of salads.  Then for desert we're having a make your own Sundae bar.  

We've had two similar celebration BBQs like this.  My parents live on a lake so it's a pretty easy event to host.

I'm just starting planning some decorations and am looking for some ideas to set it apart from the other two BBQs we've hosted.  

Anyone have any suggestions for cute summery BBQ ideas?

I love this blog for party ideas, not that I've planned any events yet.  But I love to look at the pics and get ideas.

this is exactly what I was going to suggest.  She has some great ideas. I've been scouring her blog looking for ideas for LO's 1st bday party!

What a great website!

I found a theme idea almost immediately!  I'm going with a citrus theme (yellow, orange and green).  

I'm REALLY excited about it!!
