Soulful Sunday...

Lillie in the garden at church.




Daddy and Lillie feeding the ducks after our open houses. The ducks were hungry, but we were too cold.

Sunday lunch at A Family Affair Soul Food Restaurant. Sooooo... Good!


Lillie loved all the food, but pickled okra is still her favorite.


What a wonderful weekend! After a great day on Saturday we had another great day Sunday. Draven was at my dad's so Chris and I took baby to church Sunday morning. After church we let baby sleep in the car while we looked for some open houses. Going to open houses is one of my favorite Sunday activities. We had an hour to kill before any opened up. We had just enough time to go try a soul food restaurant we read about. It is over in our "hood." Most people won't venture to this side of town, but we live here and love it! The restaurant is called A Family Affair and boy is it popular! The place was packed! The food was the best comfort food I have ever had. I filled my plate with fried chicken, mac and cheese, collards, green beans, corn, sweet taters, corn bread, and on and on an on. Makes my mouth water. Lillie and Chris loved it as much as I did. We will definitely be back, but next time on a week day. It was too crowded and hard to get a table. Luckily it was just the two of us and a baby. They crammed us in the corner next to the soda cooler. After lunch we hit our open houses, fed the ducks at the lake, then came home. Chris was off work today for Presidents day so we spent the day together. Another great day, but not blogworthy. I did find a lot of aprons to add to my collection/secret project. I will spare you the apron pictures. Tomorrow is our wedding anniversary and also Poppy Jacques birthday. We will be spending the evening with Chris' family. I will take some pictures and pretend we are having an anniversary celebration. After having such a great weekend, I don't even see a need to do anything special for our anniversary. It is like we have been celebrating for 3 days now. I am a very lucky lady!
