Best Weekend Ever

It was another busy, but very fun weekend for the Royal Family. Friday night we got together with some of our old youth group friends. We enjoyed visiting, eating from the taco bar, and drinking frozen margaritas. Here are some pictures of the kids...

Drew is so happy in this picture because he just realized he was coming home with us. Saturday was picture day at Georgia and Matt and Christy (Drew's parents) wanted to get a picture of Drew with Uga VI (this is his last year before he retires). They spent Friday night with us. Early Saturday morning Jason and Matt got up early and drove to their old stomping grounds to stand in line for a ticket to get a picture Uga. The man who was first in line got there at 8 pm the night before-now that's dedication! We got one of the last standby tickets so we weren't certain we'd get a picture but thankfully we did!

David and I waiting to see if they would let us in for a picture.

Enjoying the view...

The guy right in front of us proposed to his girlfriend y'all! It was so cute. Unfortunately I didn't get any pictures of David and Drew with my camera because I was trying to get the boys' attention so they would look at the very nice expensive camera Matt brought since I knew his pictures would turn out better than mine. Click here to see a professional shot taken by one of the photographers on hand. When Matt sends me the ones he took, I will post those as well.

Today we had some family time-just the three of us. We went to church early this morning and this afternoon we all took a 3 hour nap. When we woke up Jason decided he wanted to take us out on his boat (I told y'all the boat garage wouldn't be empty for too long-he's had it for awhile now, but this is the first time David and I went out on it.)

Making waves.

We ended the day with supper at Cracker Barrel. I can't think of a more perfect weekend y'all: visiting with friends, eating lots of good food, pictures with Uga, boating on the lake...does it get any better? I think not.

I wanted to take the kids to UGA for pictures but we could not work it into our day. SOCCER has resumed. Looks like you guys were busy. Glad you had a blast.

Katie-call me and I'll tell you how to link!

Becky-yeah he's very comfortable doing anything outdoors...but he says fishing is just something he does in between hunting seasons...might be a different story if he got to fly fish more often though-that is his favorite. Not surprisingly "A River Runs Through It" is one of his all time favorite movies.
