Weekend past

On Saturday we met up with Melissa and Keith at Sweet Lucy's BBQ - apparently even better than those in Nashville!

We got there ahead of them, but the kids were easily amused while we waited...
 
We sat down to a feast of beef brisket, pulled chicken, chilli, wings - you name it, we had it!  And it was good.
The kids were however less interested in eating, and more for playing around.  It is a casual place and was not very busy, so we loosened the leash a little, letting them move around.  Toby got stuck under a bench, they found animals to play with...
and spoons to drum with...
 After an hour or so (!) the staf brought us some hats and coloring books - right before we left!


Then we went back to Mel and Keith's to help them put up their Christmas tree.   The kids helped hang over 100 ornaments (only breaking one), and also amused themselves elsewhere...

Poor snowman - usually stands up!

And who doesn't love a dancing Santa!
After I lamented over my one monochrome, sparse tree (more kid proof than kid friendly) Melissa donated a box of colored plastic ornaments to us.  They look great - and don't break!!
