Another Road Trip

This time we were headed to Tennessee for a quick trip with J.  It is a place that we might want to build our forever home so we tagged along to see what we liked. 



We saw lots of cool sites in short trip.  Tennessee has lots of pretty scenery to begin with and the food!
Did I mention that there is a Chuy's there.




There is something delicious about this place that keeps calling us back. As a family we miss this yummy food.

Driving home, I could not help but to wonder about where the road was leading us.

Group Call




It is hard from this group to be so far apart from each other all the time. I miss seeing all their faces. Then they do a group call and we can all kind of see each other.

Sending Goobers Home

The hardest part of having our kiddos visit is the part where we send them home.  We love you Goobers, why don't you just move here.

First Show At Nanny's House

In time for my first show a stand has arrived.  I can't wait to use it!
My first show will be at Nannie and Gramp's house. Nannie is hosting an event that will include several different vendors and her boutique.  
I am all set up.
In the end this was a fun event. I sold a little product.  Made some new friends, and saw lots of old familiar faces that I had nt seen since we left for Houston 16 plus years ago.

Cedar Lake Cellars









With weddings on my mind, Miss Brenda and I headed to a local winery for the fun afternoon out seeing the area.  We went to Cedar Lake Cellars! The property was a winery that had been purchased by a man that used to run a very popular restaurant. The property has been transformed into several venues for weddings, showers, and all kinds of receptions. It is a beautiful place. Many things that I hope to  some day have on our for ever property without having the retail aspect to it.  We enjoyed some yummy drinks and the scenery and the time to chat.  Good for the Soul!

 So much my has been happening. I needed comfort. I decided to make one of my favorite meals from my youth.  My mom was not the most flavorf...
