Last Hoorahs and the Start of Summer!

The last week in May seems like sooo long ago.  It actually went by like a whirlwind.  Thankfully my school year ended on a high note.  We took the kids on a field trip to the Triple N Ranch.  (You can find out more information on the Triple N Ranch on Facebook.) They had a blast!

Enjoying the magician!

A full load on the "hayride"

Riding horses - even the teachers had fun!

My nephew graduated from high school and is headed to MC in the fall!  I read somewhere recently that the days seem to linger but the years fly by.  I surely do agree.  I cannot believe he is all grown up!

The hubby and I have taken two short trips recently.  The first one was to Memphis.  We toured the Memphis Brooks Museum of Art ...

and we attended a FREE outdoor concert at the Levitt Shell.

The concert was great!  There was a huge crowd.  Everyone brings a picnic supper along with their lawn chairs or blankets.  The weather was great and I didn't feel a single mosquito!

Next, we traveled down to the Gulf Coast.  The Hubs had a conference at the Beau Rivage so I went along, too.

We ate dinner one night at the newly opened casino, Margaritaville.  It is very small but full of what every Jimmy Buffet fan likes.

I loved seeing all of these Walter Anderson prints in the lobby.  I have these same ones hanging in my house, too!  That was pretty neat!

I ventured down to the Hard Rock and took a look around!

A great lunch at Mary Mahoney's

We brought back some delicious fresh shrimp!

I met one of my fav people, too:  Paul Gallo from Supertalk Mississippi

Oh, and how could I forget? ... the view form our room! 

but, the marina was pretty!

Let's see.  We picked blueberries over the Memorial Day Weekend and I have made a couple of cobblers.

We also cooked some ribs and had our first swim of the season.  We needed that swim after blueberry pickin'!

Well, I sure hope your summer is off to a great start!
