Spring!

WOW! Cant believe that Spring is already here! I have been so busy the last 2 weeks with prom, cheerleader tryouts, school, work , hair appointment's ,and all of the everyday stuff has left me gasping for breathe. While, the end of the school year is typically a hectic time, this year has been extra busy with prom. This will be the first year Annie will get to go. We had searched high and low for the perfect dress. She is only 5ft tall and it is difficult to find a dress to fit without major alterations. Yesterday we spent the day trying on more gowns and finally found THE one! It is very pretty and looks gorgeous on her. She cut her hair shorter and we have been experimenting with styles. Cheer tryouts were last week and am happy to report that she made it again. This will be her senior year and I hope it will be a great time in her life with lots of good memories.
Today, we are spending the day inside. It is rainy and cool out,so thought it would be a good day to catch up on all the great blogs I have missed the past two weeks. Have a blessed week and enjoy the day!

Lamberts

A couple of weeks ago on our trip we stopped at Lambert's Home of the Thrown Roll!
We had read about it and decided we needed to check it out for ourselves. When we arrived it was about 2pm and we had an hour wait ahead of us. The interior is so cute, lots of good ole fashioned country style! We spent an hour looking around and shopping in the gift store. Before we knew it, they called our name overhead!
The rolls are as big as softballs. A guy comes out with a huge cart and starts throwing the rolls to the customers. It was alot of fun and they were delicious! We could only eat one!
We placed our orders and soon huge skillets were placed in front of us. Annie ordered the chicken fried steak, mac and cheese, fried apples and potatoes with gravy. Several waiters come around with huge bowls and offer you other vegetable choices, such as fried okra. There was no way we could eat all of it. You could easily share one meal, but that is not allowed! We had such a wonderful time, enjoyed the music, food and laughter. I will visit this place again when I am in the area. It was such a great choice!
