My sister and I had tickets to a concert in Fayetteville, AR on the Friday night of Memorial Day weekend, so I decided to make a trip of it.  Desirae was brave enough to have both sides of her family over for a big cookout on Sunday.  I enjoyed a lot of time visiting with family, relaxing, and being spoiled by Mom.

The concert was Darius Rucker - we had amazing seats and enjoyed the show very much. 
 

   
 We got a sneak preview of the set list before the show.
 
 Our seats were directly front & center - you couldn't get 
 closer without sitting on the stage!
  

 

 

 Darius - we really like his new stuff and were glad he played most of his new album, "Learn to Live"

 
  

 

 
Saturday we went off shopping & left Dad to pine away for us in his shop.
Here he misses us terribly already.
 Here Mom & Desi wait patiently while I took forever to buy Birkenstocks
 at Flying Possum Leather on Dickson St. in Fayetteville.
 

 

 
 Momma Kitty - always posing

 

Mom & I took Gran out to eat at Ozark Gardens, a new restaurant in Westville.
I asked if I could trade rice for double broccoli - and did I ever get broccoli!
It was really great.

 A wren's nest on the front porch.  The bird will come
 and sit on the eggs when people aren't right close.
 Next we took a ride to Greenleaf State Park - the only way we could 
 all fit in one car was to get creative with where we put Mom.
