So this past Saturday, as I was sitting at the table eating lunch, I thought to myself we've never acutally documented this tradition. Sure we have pictures of all the birthdays, but no one ever takes a picture of us doing what we do every Saturday - hanging out! So I decided to take care of that. I didn't take as many photos as I would have liked, but I think I can work on that - we are there every Saturday and all :) So for now, here is the first glimpse into a typical Saturday at Mama T's...
The main event is lunch. Just like in the movies, we all sit around the table, eat a FABULOUS meal that Mama T cooks for us, and chit chat about our week.
Did I mention the massive amounts of food we consume?! When it's mine or Caitlin's birthday, we get the special treat of Mama T's fried chicken (let me just say I wish it was my birthday EVERY week).
And then after lunch Aunt Rhonda (left), Aunt Terri (right), and my mom (some how escaped this photo) do dishes. I supervise. :)
Daisy supervises as well. She likes to make sure that there aren't any traces of food left on anything that goes in the dishwasher. :)
This post is to be continued - with more of the great tradition in my family that is Saturday at Mama T's....

ReplyDeletewhen you get a chance, try this out: get up in there with your camera. slow the shutter speed down to about 40/50/60 depending on the light (not seconds, you'll know it's seconds from the " sign prior to/following the shutter number). place the camera directly on the table and have it focus between things at something in the distance on the table - it'll make for some fun and interesting shots from a different perspective!!
