Thanksgiving Part 2

We had lunch at the Silver Caboose in down town Collierville, TN with Kay's side of the family on Friday. The food was excellent!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! It was wonderfully done, home-cooked tasting food.
Uncle Charlie and cousin Jimmy
We are so blessed to have such nice families to spend the holidays with!!!!!!
Steve was reading the menu to Sarah Kate.
I love this area of town.
We went to some wonderful gift shops. One of the stores had birds. Beautiful birds, I must add.

Aunt Cissy and Uncle Justin sent the girls these darling Christmas p.j.'s SK loves that they have a tutu.
Sweet baby Zach.

I've eaten at the Silver Caboose many times! I love the square in downtown Collierville. They had a really neat little candy shop there that, sadly, went out of business.

I love the Silver Caboose! A good friend of mine had her rehearsal dinner there. It's so nice! And I love the Collierville square, so cute and fun!

My family and I were in Memphis over Thanksgiving too visiting my family. We had a date night at the Commissary in Germantown. Have you ever eaten there? It's SO yummy! They have the best BBQ and sweet potato fries!!!

Glad ya'll had a wonderful Thanksgiving!

Something Good to Eat

Ever since Steve and I started dating, when we would go to Mississippi, his aunt would make the BEST ROAST IN THE WORLD!!!!!!!!!!! Steve's Dad's side of the family gets together at his Granny's house for lunch every Sunday after church. The food is always sooo good!!!!!!!!!!!! I have always taken a liking to his Aunt Judy's roast. It really is the best roast I have ever had. When we were there on Labor Day weekend, my sister in law asked Aunt Judy for the recipe. Aunt Judy began naming all the ingredients. She said Ranch Dressing mix, and I bugged my eyes out and nearly chocked. I HATE RANCH DRESSING. I don't even like to be in the room with it. I had to focus on the word MIX....not the mayo and butter milk and sour cream that you add to it. Just typing those words makes me shudder. The recipe sounded awful as she rattled off the ingredients, but I promise, you have got to make this if you like a good roast. Trust me on this. Here it is: Get a tender chuck...

Complicated

Maybe I am wrong, but I don't remember life being so complicated when I was in middle school. Everything is so competitive now.  Maybe it was back then and I just didn't realize it. Sarah Kate started playing city league softball a couple of weeks ago.   We've been encouraged to get her private batting lessons. When I was in third grade I started playing softball and I just did it for fun!  No stress at all, as far as I can remember!  I just played.  I wasn't very good, but I liked it! Ha! Emily started band this year!  Before school started, I got a letter from the school district strongly encouraging "your band student to take instrument lessons."  WHAT?  I bought into it and got Emily private clarinet lessons (which she really enjoys)! But, what happened to learning as you go?  I never thought about taking private trumpet lessons when I started band. It seems like most parents are striving for their child to be THE BEST....

Life in Pictures!

Emily is enjoying her first year in band.  I am very impressed with her playing skill! Sarah Kate was recently awarded the empathy award at her school.  She is very deserving of this! Here we are before the Cotillion Holly Ball.
