Georgia On My Mind

We went to Greg and Laura's over Mothers Day weekend and of course had a great time and here are a few pictures to prove it. They have the Wii games, and if you are not familiar with that, it is action games like Bowling, Boxing, Golf, Tennis, etc. There are 2 controllers and you use them as if you have a bowling ball, a tennis racket, or golf club in your hand. Garrett and Chloe in the first two pictures are Boxing (Garrett calls it punching.) At one point during the game Garrett got mad at Chloe and turned and "punched" her in the stomach with his controller, and then had the most surprised look on his face and so did all of us. Guess it was just getting to realistic and he lost control. Anyway we are still laughing about it.




They loved playing Bowling on Wii and Garrett kept beating Grandpa, which was such great fun, so they decided they wanted to try the real Bowling Game. However, they didn't beat Grandpa at the real thing but they did really good and they had such great fun.
On Saturday, we grilled hamburgers and here is the apron Greg wore when he was grilling. Yes, he did have shorts on under his "The Lady Can Cook" apron.

The apron really belongs to Lady Laura and yes, she can REALLY cook. She made us some delicious dishes wearing this apron. Her Short Ribs were awsome. If you ever go see them, you might want to special order them and maybe even her banana pudding. No, Greg is not drugged although it does look like he has been tasting something spiked.

Part of the daily chores at Greg's house is to use whipes on Sadie's feet every time she goes out and comes back in.

Garrett thought it was great fun to put Chloe's pretty hair bows in Grandpa's hair.

All dressed up for meeting.


For Mother's Day Greg had make reservations at a restaurant called Elevations. It is on the runway of a small airport near them and they have the best food. Tammy and family and Greg and family went together to get me a nice Mother's Day gift. A gift certificate to Coldwater Creek, of which I have already spent and got a very pretty jacket to wear with my black skirt, and also a cook book called Fresh Food Fast and has lots of yummy sounding recipies. Thanks kids, I loved the gifts and I love you too.
