A Mad Tea Party!

Saturday was our annual summer BBQ. This year's theme was Mad Hatter. Everyone was invited to bring or create a crazy hat to wear to the party. We even planned a hat contest!

All week long they were calling for a giant storm to hit this past weekend. I was so stressed thinking the party was going to get rained out. Even Sat morning when we got up they were still calling for storms all afternoon. I figured we would make the best of it. We got a bunch of party tents to set up just in case.

Well wouldnt you know that the party came and went and not a drop of rain! The sun was out! Thanks John you rule!

So the party was a ton of fun! Everyone came with their silly hats. We had lots of food, lots of drinks and lots of laughs! The kids got to spend the day outside with the slip and slide, sprinklers and water balloons. It was a great party!

Y'all come back now ya hear!

Savannah is one of the coolest places I have ever been! What a beautiful city! I could have spent weeks just walking around checking out the parks and buildings. The trees covered in spanish moss are just amazing to look at. We got to see so many cool places....Paula Dean's resturant, River Street, tons of historical buildings, the riverboat. We were down for a family wedding and got to visit with some cousins I havent seen in years. We had such a good time just hanging out and laughing! The wedding was really nice. Gavin had so much fun dancing with all of his cousins. I have so many great memories from this vacation! I will say though, If ever in Savannah dont bother visiting Uncle Bubbas! Worst resturant ever!

Now we are home and have tons to do to get ready for the Mad Hatter party. I am really looking forward to this year's party. Im excited about the theme. We bought Gavin a hat on River Street at a store called the Mad Hatter! I found a hat at South of the boarder on the way home.

I'm off to work on laundry. Here are some pics from the trip!
