Weekend in Memphis

So we are back from a long weekend in Memphis...

Our friends Sarah & Michael got married Saturday at the Junior League House in Memphis. Sarah, you looked amazing! Congratulations!!! (see pics below...)

This was our first real road trip with the kids (other than the 3 1/2 hrs it takes to go to my parents). Memphis is about 5 hours for us and the kids did awesome! They mostly slept the entire way which was great and let me get a little nap in as well. We stopped in Conway to meet Mom and have lunch with her. She was so excited to see the kids and they were just as excited to see her! I can't wait to go home in a few weeks and see everyone again! The wedding made me miss my cousins baby shower. Linny, I hope you had a great shower and that Mr. Liam got lots of great things. We can't wait to meet the little guy!


Allea spent the weekend home alone (our neighbors let her out and played with her during the day)so I am sure this is how she spent her weekend...



We realized on the way there that this was the first time for us to be back in Memphis in about 3 years. Now for those of you who went to Harding, you know that Memphis becomes your second home when there is nothing to do in S-town. My how things have changed though. Instead of hitting Beale St until late into the night, we were putting kids to bed and staying up talking about the good 'ol days!


We were so excited that we were getting to stay with our great friends Jennifer & Nathan Walters. Nathan & Ryan were college roommates and we were all in each other's weddings. The kids were so excited to finally meet their new friend Kisor. I think Elliot already has a crush! We can't wait for Jenn, Nathan & Kisor to come up in the fall for a Razorback game. We are going to introduce Kisor to tailgating, pre-game football & calling the Hogs! Can't wait!






Sunday, we were able to go to Highland and see lots of Harding friends. It was so great to see Amy & Therm and all their kiddos. Griffin is such a little man now and the girls are just beautiful. I can't believe we both have twins! We can't wait to hang out longer at the beach during Labor Day. (All my college friends, spouses & kids are going to the beach for Labor Day....between all of us there will be 16 kids....YIKES!)

After a great lunch outside at Bronte's, we headed home. Again, the kids somehow slept most of the way. It was great and we are so blessed to have such go with the flow kids. I think they are happier when they are on the go then when they are home! Playing with Kisor all weekend wore them out and they can't wait to do it again soon!
