a revival of an old favorite and a pretty darn great weekend

This was just about the best weekend I've had in a while.

Friday my sister and her husband came over and we all stayed up talking til 1:30.  I love them and I am going to miss them so much when they are in Augusta (good luck on your interview Joe!)

Saturday I got to take a two hour nap with my little and then we all showered up and went to see The Avengers at the dollar theater (well they all did, I had a wiggly baby so I went to Goodwill and bought a few blazers.)

Then we went to the fair.  It was SO much fun.  Daddy won a bat and a little dolphin for EJ. (We won't go in to the humiliating details of the basketball game that Mr. Murphy played.  Those carnies will get you every time.)  We had foot long corndogs, a deep fried Snickers, and an elephant ear in all of its fried glory.



Then Sunday after church we brought to Fender system and guitar outside on the porch and soaked in the fall wind and played music while eating chips and salsa with my mom and watching Evie roll around on a blanket.  We also layed out under a tree in the front yard and watched the hummingbirds enjoy the last bit of the feeders.  They will be migrating in a week or two.

After EJ went to sleep Mr. Murphy and I caught up on some of our favorite shows and then played "1-2-3 Come and Jump on me!".  It was a revival of an old favorite.  I love that man and our amazing weekend.

curses

It's Friday y'all!!

Of course every day feels like Friday lately. We are having a family reunion and are seeing family from Australia.

I made my great grandmothers famous Caramel cake.

Like literally...famous.

She made thousands of them and sold them like crazy in Camilla, Georgia. Mine doesn't even compare, not even close. But it will have to do. I'm sure Virginia got a great kick out of me looking down from heaven last night. She is the only human being who can make this darn cake. I hope she forgives me for cursing her last night...

And this morning when I made a second one because the first wouldn't do.

She is the first person I want to talk to if I make it to heaven...
