(***It was really hard to pick just a few peeps, but I'll try to do one again and send it to the others that I hated to leave out. )

The highlight of our weekend was going to the Orpheum Star Search to root for my brothers girlfriend, Ashley who was participating and singing. She is a phenomenal singer and was on Broadway as Annie when she was younger.


Out of 11 people who participated in the Star Search, she won 2nd place!! We are so proud of her!! She is so talented, she sings for a number of functions, performs in plays and is also a student at University of Alabama. Her dream is to be back on Broadway when she is done with school and I definitely think she will do it. She is a beautiful young lady and I'm so glad my brother has such an amazing girlfriend! I love her! Sometimes I wish she still lived close by so we could share clothes, ha ha!


Snappin pics on the way . . . .
Ashley!! Isn't her dress so pretty?? And her jewelry just sparkled on stage!!
Guess all 3 of us got the "wear black and white memo" ha ha! Those are my colors though! Can't go wrong with B&W - classic!
Mike and I in the lobby of the Orpheum. We love coming back here and have so many memories. Best of them all is that we were lucky enough to have our rehearsal dinner in this beautiful building on stage. Every time we come back to see a show or concert I look at the stage where the performance is taking place and think WOW - we had our rehearsal dinner here. What a memory!!
After that Mike and I went to Blue Fin, a wonderful Sushi bar here in Memphis. My Mom met up with us a little later. It was so good.

Today I was off work - YAY! Slept in, lounged around a little then finally got my butt up and went to the grocery. I fixed Mike som Jamaican Jerk chicken, red beans and rice, and then some mini crab cakes. They were SO good. They were actually "Low Carb" crab cakes. Quite yummy and will definitely make them again. Now I am off to enjoy the night on the couch with my boo, have a little wine, and watch a few shows. Gotta love Sunday night TV!
