Mr and Mrs Tony Brown

Last weekend we went to Knoxville to celebrate the marriage of Kembree and Tony! It was their 10th dating anniversary (and our 11th), so a very special day on more than one note! We had a fantastic time! The personality of the bride and groom came out in all of the wedding details, which I loved...like a group picture, awesome DJ, belly dancers, etc. Kembree looked absolutely beautiful. The reception was at the Women's Basketball Hall of Fame, which was a great venue, but it was pretty dark, so I don't have many reception pics!
Ray and I as we were leaving for the wedding...

The standard ceremony...

The Persian ceremony, which was way cool. I wish I could find their fans/programs, so I could tell you the meaning of everything they did.

Father and Daughter dance...

UT Grooms Cake...

Some of the centerpieces...

Of course, we belted out the sweetheart song!

How cool is this photo booth?

You kept 3 and put 3 in a scrapbook for Kembree and Tony. Of course we loved it so much we did it twice!

We all know a night out in Knoxville is not complete till you have visited with Turtle at Gus's!

Recipe Shower

Last Saturday Molly had a recipe shower in Jonesboro. I didn't get to go because we went to Knoxville for a fabulous wedding (post to come soon!). However, thanks to Brooke G. I have some great pictures of the shower to share!
Molly with her hostesses, who are advisers to her sorority, so their hostess gifts had hootie hoos on them!
Yum...look at this delicious food I missed!
You guessed it...everyone watches as Molly opens her presents!

Let the opening begin...
Move over Paula...Molly is in the Kitchen!
Since they don't deliver pizza to the country, I couldn't resist giving her a pizza carrier and the number to the local Pizza Hut, so they can get hot pizza every now and then...
Is that a cupcake timer...too cute!

Lily's 2nd Birthday Party...

Caleb, Emily and Lily wait for all the guest to arrive on Sunday night for Lily's swimming party.

Lily started out in the kid pool, but before long she was asking to go to the 'big' pool...

Then she wanted to try the slide...

She loved it and didn't want to stop!

But, it was time for cake and ice cream!
Lily loved everyone singing Happy Birthday to her...
Make a wish...
Lily was excited to open presents...this was her face when she opened her new basketball goal!
Josie and Addie take a break from swimming to smile for the camera...
Addie helps Lily back into the big pool.
Everyone enjoyed swimming.

Success-ful Shower

What a lovely shower the women of the Success Baptist Church hosted for Molly and Logan. We got to Success around 10:45...just in time for Church.

First we had a potluck lunch...So much delicious food!
