State Fair Weekend

Kristen, Clay, and the kiddos came to visit this weekend. It was the first time they had been to our house in Louisville and AJ was pretty excited to show them his handy work. On Saturday we went to the State Fair bright and early to watch some cow shows. Kenley enjoyed walking around the exhibits. She rode a tricycle, colored on a giant mural, and saw lots of animals. Later that evening, we all went to the Parklands to play on the playground and the splash pad. I'm not sure who had more fun... The kids or Aaron. We had a great weekend!

August Birthday Party

I have been waiting for an opportunity to host a party at our house since I've moved in. My sister turned 21 this month so that was the perfect event.  My mom and younger cousin, Zachary Tate, also have August birthdays so we combined them all into one big party.

I decided to go with a country theme which I had a blast decorating for.  There were handkerchiefs galore and Jason Aldean even made an appearance. The food was awesome. My Mammaw made a low country boil, my uncle made his famous mai tias, and I (true to form) had most of the rest catered. :)

 

The cakes came from Kroger and were EXCELLENT.
