We got in touch with them via text , phone and Facebook to let them know about the barbecue and see if they would be able to come . A few people had schedule conflicts but most were free and said that they looked forward to having a cook out . A few days before the barbecue we decided on what we would serve . A few of the guests had offered to bring chips , salads and beers but we provided most of the food so we made a shopping list of the items we needed . We bought soda , corn on the cob , burgers , buns , chicken , salmon , and ingredients for salad . On the day of the barbecue we set up the yard to be ready for our guests .
