My 2 Favorite Guys and Natchez

I can't believe the weekend is here again and we only have one more week to go before we have our Mississippi Magnolia Southern Belles get together. Because of that, I will just show you a little bit of Natchez again. I am hoping I can get more response as to who is coming. We would love to see all of you. It will be fun, I promise!

My desktop crashed and I have your emails there and I cannot retrieve them. The hard drive has to be replaced which means I lose everything that I did not back up. I am waiting for Lady Katherine to give the email addresses to me again so I can give you more info and directions. If possible, could you all email me in case Lady Katherine did not read my request yet?

I would like to congratulate Beverly for the Anniversary of Pink Saturday. May you have another strong year! I am so sorry I wasn't able to participate this time because I have been overwhelmed with work and projects.

I am also linking with Laurie at http://bargainhuntingwithlaurie.blogspot.com/ for A Few of My Favorite Things.

My 2 favorite grandsons are coming for a visit with their mom this week arriving this Saturday and I am so excited. I have not seen them since I left Florida after staying with them when the baby was born.

Also, Janie of Blondie's Journal and her hubby are coming tomorrow to see us. They are staying with us for a day so we should have enough time to chat and laugh and eat and goof around. I want to show them as much as we can here, which is not much since this is a very small town. But I have to admit that it is quite charming. Could there be a better and more fun weekend than this? I am sooooo very excited!

Look at my 2 grandsons! They have such good dispositions.

Aren't they just the cutest and fun boys! I cannot wait to play with them, hug and kiss them and swim with them. This will be a very busy but fun week!

Last week, we attended a Kentucky Derby party, a fund raiser for the Humane Society. But most of all, I wanted to see the house where it was held, at the Glen Auburn antebellum house in downtown.
It is a private residence so I knew this would be a chance for me to see it since it is not open for tours. Do you like our hats? LOL!

Isn't this a charming porch? I could have taken a lot of pictures but nobody else was taking any and there were so many people so I was a bit embarrassed. I must have been the only blogger there, lol. I had to do it discreetly.

Our downtown is very unusual because it has a lot of antebellum mansions.

Love the antique bed and other furnishings!

The food! How do you like the centerpiece?

I love this centerpiece, the laughing woman in a hat sitting on hat boxes. The desserts were so good!

Pretty fireplaces!

On the way home, we saw the most amazing sunset. I told John to stop the car so I could take pictures by the Mississippi River.

We ate out on Tuesday night with my friend Nit who is moving to Alaska soon. I am sure gonna miss her. While eating, we came across another doctor who works with John in the hospital. He just started operating a Bed and Breakfast and it was a block away from the restaurant. He invited us to see it so we just left the car parked in front of the restaurant after dinner and walked to his house. It was a nice evening. He wanted us to especially see his newly purchased cannon. I thought it was pretty interesting.

If any of the MS bloggers attending the get together want to stay overnight, I highly recommend this place. It is newly renovated and it looks really nice. I already picked my favorite guest room, the one with the huge silk Persian rug. The owner is very pleasant and will keep you entertained for sure. Pretty much everything in the house is new. The name is Rising Sun.

I and my friend Nit were being silly posing inside the house by the marble statue.

Another B & B Inn we passed by going to the car from Glen Auburn. There are a lot of Bed and Breakfast inns here in Natchez. They really are quite charming.

Thanks once again for coming by. I hope you enjoyed our short tour.

Thanks Laurie, for allowing me to show my favorite babies!
