Summer weekends...

We traveled to Little Rock last weekend to go to my friend Jeane's wedding.  We have been lifelong friends and we had so much fun.  She was one of the most beautiful brides I have ever seen and she's as beautiful on the inside as she is on the out!  We were all so happy for her and her new husband and had a fun weekend with friends!  

we have known each other practically our whole lives, i feel like we were in high school the other day!

reception

lindsey and handsome lucas!

i was in love with all of her flower choices!

We went to the fort this weekend to spend time with Joe, Liz and Hadleigh!  I had been missing her so much I could hardly stand it.  She's growing up and is so hilarious.  We went to "mexico" as had calls it for dinner and then hadleigh and I snuggled on the couch and watched Tangled and Olivia and I can't think of a better evening.  

 this morning involved playing beauty shop, and she's really in to having her hair fixed and fixing mine!  the more bows the better.  she also wanted her hair french braided, and let me tell ya, those curls are hard to tame.  

 saturday at the pool!  

 "ahmi, you eat one end and i'll eat the other, and we'll meet in the middle and we'll be like lady and the tramp"

 hiding in the shade!

a fancy weekend

it wasn't that fancy, but fancy for us, i think.  we did two things i have been wanting to do for a long time.

first, i have wanted to eat at James at the Mill for YEARS, and it has never worked out.  b's parents were coming up to stay there for a night and invited us to come and eat with them.  yes, please. you don't have to ask me twice.  i photographed the food, except for the main course because i was too excited and forgot.  i think my husband gets a little embarrassed of my food photographing, especially in a really nice restaurant...but who cares!

fun!

crab cake!

 and jumping straight to the desserts! :) white chocolate creme brulee 

 lemon tart on a cookie crust  

 the second was going to Crystal Bridges!  we were going to the lake sunday afternoon with carmen and adam, and it's just so miserably hot.  and i'm not a fan of miserably hot, even for the lake.  so we decided to skip and we went to have lunch at Crystal Bridges and see the gallery.  i am all about the air conditioning.  i am sad to say my lunch choice was not good, at all.  it sounded good, but just wasn't.  but they are a museum not a 4 star restaurant. :)  and the whole place is such a treasure for NWA.

they had a one of the original printed versions of the declaration of independence 

 having a serious art discussion, i am sure.  :)

 i liked this one because it was called "two kindred spirits"
