More Rednecks!

I can't let the pictures of my fabulous redneck friends go unseen! Too bad we didn't snap more than we did because everyone had their own redneck fashion statement. Ashleigh and her husband Dusty looked very natural with their redneck outfits, but if there had been an award for the person that looked like a true redneck, I think it would have been Kev!!! The Demolition Derby t-shirt and red bandana really did it. And the 24oz can of PBR that our neighbors gave him was the icing on the cake.

Ashleigh
The party was her idea. Look closely - Her shirt says "Big Sexy."
I assume that is the wrestler's neckname!


Tracy
Check out her "Dirty South" shirt and straw glasses.
More "rednecks" are coming up the hill in the background.

Pictures

We finally found some pictures for the dining room wall and the great room. The dining room picture came from Kirkland's in Winston and the one in the great room came from Kirkland's in Greensboro.

In taking these pictures, I discovered that our camera will not let us zoom out once we have zoomed in!!! Of course it is no longer under warranty and will cost around $90 for us to send it back to Kodak for them to repair it. We can upgrade and receive 25% off the purchase.

Grillin' on the Green

Kel and I are helping to put together a cookout for our Townhouse community here in our neighborhood. Several of us met last week to begin planning the party. Kel and I had the flyer ready last Saturday and passed some of them out Sunday afternoon. We're just waiting for folks to RSVP. I guess we'll meet again next week to see who's coming and what they're brining. It should be a fun time for all and we hope that most of our neighbors will be able to come out!!!

Out and About

We’ve had a busy week!!! Wednesday evening we attended a dinner at Ruth’s Chris in Greensboro for the Rockingham Community College Foundation. It was a delicious dinner with a good time of fellowship with Talon Club donors. We had appetizers, cocktails, filet mignon, and dessert……..

heading to the RCC Foundation Dinner

Thursday, we attended an open house at the Piedmont Club here in Winston. Our friends, the Chambers, joined us. We had heavy hors d’oeuvres and drinks! It was a beach party theme with shagging and line dancing. Sorry, no pics:o(

Summer do's.....

The pup aka Princey and myself have decided to sport new do's this summer! Princey has gone with a short trim and a short beard! I have decided to grow a beard to see if I like it......

Happy Birthday Cara!!!

Saturday was Cara's First Birthday Party! Yay! She was a little shy about digging into the cake - Amanda made sugar flowers to go on top of her cake and she gracefully pulled them off before gettin' to the good stuff. How CUTE!!!

PTO - Part 1

Well, it is the week of May 11th - May 15th and we're on PTO this week. We've decided not to travel any but take some day trips. Today, we went to Hanging Rock Park and below are some of our pics. We stopped in Walnut Cove at Bojangles for some chicken. We ate lunch at the park and then decided to walk some of the trails.

My Birthday Weekend!!!

Monday, I will be 32! Today, we're going to the Transportation Museum in Spencer. It’s an opportunity to explore exhibits of antique locomotives, rail cars, automobiles and more. We also get to take a train ride around the N.C. Transportation Museum's historic 57-acre site, and learn about how transportation progress helped build North Carolina.

Afterwards, we’re going to High Rock Lake to have dinner with Kel’s family. I think the menu includes hot dogs and hamburgers with fudge brownies for dessert!!!

Tomorrow, we’ll spend most of the day in Reidsville with my family. We’re going to Baptist Temple for church and then to see my Grandma before heading to my parents to grill out.

Kel and I plan to chill out Monday!! Maybe go out for breakfast, hit up the YMCA and then just hang out.

As the weekend progresses, I’m sure I’ll have some pics to post; so keep checking!
