Valentine’s Eve/Shrove Tuesday

Yesterday when we got to Clara’s house after I picked her up from school, she was so proud to show me the special Valentines she’d made for all her classmates.  Lindee printed out the wings, and Clara did all the rest – cutting them out, putting on the stickers, putting in the suckers, and I don’t know if you can see them, but putting the googly eyes on the butterflies 🙂

The last night was the annual Shrove Tuesday pancake supper at church. As usual it was delicious, and the decorations were so cute!

Char’s game last Saturday

Saturday morning Jeff and I headed to Charlie’s church league basketball game.  That’s him right in the middle of the picture, just on the other side of Adam’s Panthers hat, after he brought the ball down the floor and was getting ready to pass.

After the game. I’m not going to lie, Woodland got killed, but we always enjoy watching them play.

Hip-O-Kat’s 2nd Anniversary

Friday night Jeff & I went and picked up Maxie & Diane, and headed to Shelby to celebrate with Luke and Amanda at their store.  It was fun, and I got a new (to me) Braves T-shirt and jigsaw puzzle :-).  The band they had playing was a ukulele band called The Dancing Fleas, and they were really good.  The guy in the back was playing a bass ukulele (who knew such a thing existed?), and also happened to be the mayor of Shelby 🙂

Got this great picture of Jeff and Amanda as we were heading out. Fun times.

Live from Nashville

Last night the program at the auditorium was another good one – Live from Nashville:  Country Legends.  Minnie Pearl was hilarious 🙂

I got this picture afterwards of dear friend Charlotte and Bob Dowd on either side of this brother Roger and Roger’s wife Denise. I got a chance to visit with Denise for a while during intermission, which was great fun.

Gail Wallace

Sunday before we left Tennessee we met Gail Wallace, her husband Steve and stepdaughter Grace at Cracker Barrel for breakfast.  She and I went to school together from first grade through college, and it was so much fun reconnecting.  Jeff got this picture of us as we were heading out.  Such a great way to end our weekend.

Wedding Reception

My camera battery died before we even got into the reception Saturday night, and my phone was at about 8%, so I got basically no decent pictures from that.  I did get this kind of blurry one of Hillary and her sister and maid-of-honor Rachel watching Josh and Renee in the mother/son dance.

My camera was REALLY low by the time I tried to get this one of three generations on the dance floor together: Jeff, Andrew, and Adam. I’m hoping maybe someone else got them in a picture 🙂
