My weekend was full of family and fun! It started after a mad dash to work and a wild school day that included an art project in class (what was I thinking?!?) and a pep rally! Mom picked Bentlee up from school and they headed to the 'boro to spend some Q T with Chris, Lily, and I!
I posted this picture as proof that mom and I have both been reduced to school Tshirts for the sake of blue jeans! Who would have ever thought...
We both teach middle school, we both are "tigers," we both are opposed to Tshirt wearing, and we are both REQUIRED to wear them with our jeans! lol. Oh, what a teacher will do for a pair of blue jeans! :-)
Mom and Bentlee arrived in style in Mom's new car! :-) She and dad just got this little collector car...
It's a beautiful T-Bird! Everything in it's teal... Teal seat bottoms, teal gear shift, even the needles on the speedometer are teal! It's not a color mom would have ever picked but it turned out to be SO cute!
The girls especially loved it! Grandmommy gave them each a ride with the top down! :-)
Friday night I cooked dinner at Chris' and the girls played while we caught up and sipped wine! Of course, the girls won grandmommy over and we all ended up playing Hi-Ho Cherry-O and "Tiger" (freeze tag) and reading books! Saturday Mom broke out the sewing machine and Lily and Chris came over so Lily could be fitted for her cheer uniform! She has one now just like our cheerleaders! Afterwards we all went to lunch and then the little girls went with Chris for a day of playing while the big girls took the T-bird out for a spin and went shopping! I had SUCH a wonderful time! (I always do with mom!) And we had major shopping mojo going on... we got great deals!!!
Sunday brought church which was wonderful as always. Then Chris, Lily, and I headed to Milton to visit with his family, to allow him to work on an outdoor project for his mom, and for Sunday dinner (that was CRAZY good!!!). While we were there I persuaded Lily to let me take a few pictures! This is pretty rare, she's not crazy about getting her picture made and getting her to look at, let alone smile, at the camera proves challenging at best!
We get this look a lot, lol! She cracks me up!
And I want everyone to weigh in on these last two! I am going to have it printed (I have a thing for feet) and I can't decide if I like it better in color or in black and white! So leave a comment and let me know what you think!

I like the pink because it's so vibrant. And I'm dying to hear Part 2 of the story!!! :)
That car is AWESOME!!!!
I like the one in color as well. You take such amazing pictures :)!
I like them both...can't choose.
Ahh the days of school T-shirts and jeans. I would have worn anythign to get to wear my jeans to school...ANYTHING! Glad you all had such a wonderful time together and I love Mom's new car! How cute!
You know I usually go for the black and white, but there's something about the pink dress against the tree and the grass...
I'm going to steal your mom's car. Just an fyi.
I love the pink one! Such pretty colors! :)
Both are wonderful, as is usually the case with your photography. You are sooooo good. If I had to vote, I'd vote black and white. I like the old-fashioned effect.
I'm averaging one a week, too. It's just so hard to fit it all in! You and your mom are too cute. I would wear the t-shirt to wear jeans, too. LOL! I love the foot picture of Lily and really love the color one. I also LOVE the one of her completely from the back. I have always loved pictures of my kids from the back! Looking forward to the second installment of the love story! =)
