A Wonderful June 15th




June 15th was a great day for many reasons!






Tom's mother, "Tuddie", had a birthday. We had Father's Day, and we were lucky enough to have Tom's brother, Jeff, in from Dallas, his grandfather and grandmother in from Raleigh, and Mary Stuart's ballet recital. It was a busy day!



Mary Stuart started the day at the Blumenthal's Belk Theater. For those of you unfamiliar with Charlotte, this is an "uptown" theatre that is host to many concerts and off-broadway shows. It is in the Bank of America building. We felt very important! She was the first of a long show, but she did wonderful and didn't get stage-fright at all! I know you think I'm crazy, but I was so proud of Mary Stuart and it was the sweetest thing ever.



After that, everyone came over for Frogmore Stew (shrimp boil) at our house. It was fun.. Baby Charlie came. I will post his picture once I can figure out how to post separate pics. He is a chunky monkey, 3 months old, who is the happiest baby around. Well, maybe last night was the first night I EVER heard him cry. But overall, he is so happy.



All in all, a great day! We are thankful for our Tuddie, our fathers, and Granddad! Happy June 15th!
PS Thanks for letting me borrow your camera, Amanda!

Congrats...can't wait for the recital circuit.

As for the pictures: when you write your blog in the empty box, you will see two tabs on the top right of the box. One says, "compose" (probably the one you are in). The other is "edit html". I generally write all mine in the html tab. I can't get fancy fonts, but I am not a fancy font guy. When you download pictures, they will show as some weird code that starts with an "<" and end with an ">". They will also have the title of the picture in the code. If you want to move the picture, cut and paste the entire code (from '<' to '>') where you want it.
