Our Family and Friends in the Grove

Last weekend was truly a homecoming for us! Our best friends came to visit from Nashville, and we went to the Grove to eat, drink and be merry. For anyone who has never been, the Grove is not easy to describe. The feeling of the hot, hot sun early in the morning... the smell of sausage balls... the taste of mimosas and bloody marys... hugs from old friends... judging horrible outfits on girls as they walk by... looking around our tent and knowing that it just feels right. We love our school and the Grove. Mostly we just love Oxford. I can't imagine a better way to spend a Saturday than in the Grove.




Wes and Susannah. I just don't have enough adjectives for them. Love them!

Cathy on the phone with her twin sister, Dobbie. We missed Dobbie and Pop Pop this weekend. I know they wish they could have come!
Alison and Bryce. They really like to cuddle.
Johnny and Bryce. Let's just say that Bryce got away with no pants and no shoes - and came back looking like this. He was so proud of himself!
Bryce and Annie. They don't know it yet, but they are betrothed. Trust us, we are your parents!
Alison and Taylor (the state fan). We are so lucky to have them in Tupelo!
Anna Kathryn came all the way from Texas and Heath came all the way from Rhode Island to see us! It was so much fun catching up with our fam!
Aunt Ruth didn't even see Danny or me or anyone else for that matter. She only came to see Bryce. And, he was loving on her big time!
Bryce and Annie are having a big time getting to know each other!
Danny is telling ANNY about his son. He is going to be a great father-in-law!
Kristi and I eating lots and lots of food. We had so much fun - Kristi is my partner in crime.
