We have been so busy—in a very good way—going to Tennessee and then returning home to several days of company. LOVED IT!
Oh, and celebrating Mother’s Day, too. Yeah, that was nice!
So, before we begin, you might want to grab a piping hot mug of coffee…. Here we go:
We spent Mother’s Day weekend in Tennessee, because Derek’s great-aunt was being honored by the university she taught at and retired from. Therefore, we, (Derek, Derek’s mom, Cherish, and I) got in the car and headed out. Tracy, Derek’s uncle, boarded a plane and met us there.
Then, we drove home—all 9+ hours of it—on Mother’s Day. So, my mom came up and we went out to celebrate on Tuesday evening. Derek took us to a dinner theater to watch, “Seven Brides for Seven Brothers.” It was amazing!! I am still marveling at how much they did on the size stage they had. The actors received a standing ovation from us! Wow! They were good!
Derek, Julie, Carileen, Aunt LaVeta, Uncle Tracy, Cherish:
Come on! This is a formal dinner!
Oh, never mind.
Then came Saturday...rest and play day.
Derek taking Cherish for a "walk" with Aunt LaVeta's walker:
Derek is simply a big kid.
My favorite picture of Cherish:
Her asthma was completely controlled--yay!
Having a blast rolling down the hill behind Aunt LaVeta's House.
The only hills we have at home are ramps onto interstates!
Lovin' life:
Hi, Daddy!
Back home and at the dinner theater for our
Mother's Day celebration:
Cherish had an idea and struck this pose on her own.
Afterwards, I saw all the tiny red ants crawling
all over the palm trees!
Yep, those are bites!
...part of the 26-ish she had. Poor girl!
