BBQ FEST

These were taken with my phone so they're not great, but I had to share.  My Uncle Randy and Aunt Susan decided to go all out for Randy's birthday and head out to Memphis for bbq fest.  We had such a good time and definitely got our bbq fix in.  While they were here we visited Corky's, BB Kings, and Interstate, where we even got to chit chat with Jim Neely himself for a bit.  It was fun being able to catch up and show them a little Southern Hospitality at the same time. 

The small and simple gifts we receive are the most priceless....Happy Mother's Day to me!!!

TARA OAKS FIELD DAY

This explains my girls perfectly.  Cara is all about the social and Ryleigh is all about the competition....couldn't have shown it in a more perfect way.

Carson's 6th grade field day~

We were so lucky the day we moved in across the street from the Collier's.  I can definitely say I have a BFF now!!! and here's Carson with his.

What a great group of boys!!!  Evan thought he was pretty cool that day. Little does he know--they're all fighting over who gets to hold him because "he's a total chick magnet" haha.  

Cara's second grade PTA performance

Cara with her best buddy Tyler Collier.  It's funny, as the years go by these two still remain just as close as they were when we moved here 6 years ago.  They've always got each other's backs!!!

Cara in "Going Bananas"-Love this pic!!

 Ryleigh's 1st grade PTA performance

 Every grade performs at least once a year at the PTA meetings--really it's just a way to get the parents there, because we all know how much we love those meetings-NOT!   First grade performed songs all about bedtime and waking up...that expalins the pj's of course.  Ryleigh started the program by welcoming the parents....she is so funny, she was on the front row totally rocking out with her hand motions.  This girl loves to entertain and how could you not love looking at the beautiful face of hers.....of course she wouldn't be Ryleigh without her long blonde hair tied up with big old bows haha!!
