On Sunday Morning I awoke with a Strong desire to wear one of my very favorite outfits. The one I have dubbed my Safari outfit. It is so named because one day I told Blake that if I was ever to go on a Safari this would be the outfit I would wear. I then told Blake that it would be awesome if he wore a safari outfit too so we could match. Being the fabulous husband that he is he asked me what exactly his safari outfit would look like and I said anything that is khaki, brown, blue or braided. He concocted this outfit....

Anyways on our way home from church I mentioned to Blake that we should take some Safarish type pictures in honor of our smashing outfits!

Then my little brother asked if he could be in them and being the wonderful big sister I am I said... NO.

Hoping to deter his interest further I said you aren't even dressed for a safari. Then he said "well then what should I be wearing." Now being the smart big sister that I am I knew that after I told him what was required he would for sure not want to participate, and so I confidently replied khaki, brown, blue or braided.

By this time we had reached the house and 10 minutes later Mckay emerged wearing this...

and so we shot this...
and this...
and some of this...
and then Mckay got really into it so we shot this... Ya we're pretty much... Awesome LOL!

To our MOMS,

Aren't you glad you got stuck with these two crazy kids! I know this post is going up a day late but we just wanted to give a shout out to two of the best Moms in the whole world. Since Mothers day is generally synonymous with cheesy antics. We thought it only appropriate to slather our Mothers and readers in large helping of mums day mushiness.

AND SO... A poem for MOM

Roses are red
Violets are blue...
Just kidding here is the real poem

What "Mother" Means

"Mother" is such a simple word,
But to me there’s meaning seldom heard.
For everything I am today,
My mother’s love showed me the way.I’ll love my mother all my days,
For enriching my life in so many ways.
She set me straight and then set me free,
And that’s what the word "mother" means to me.Thanks for being a wonderful mother, Mom!

Love you moms!
Love Blake & Tigan

The Kentucky Derby is run annually on the first Saturday in May. Horse racing in Kentucky dates back to 1783. It's a sport rich in pride, heritage and tradition, and no other venue in the world pays tribute to the glory, status and spectacle of Thoroughbred racing quite like Churchill Downs.

And no Kentucky Derby Saturday is complete with out your lavishly designed if not gaudy to ridiculous Kentucky Derby hat. Your Kentucky Hot Brown, Derby pie and of course a private viewing of National Velvet.
