New York Pizza

I'm gonna give a "shout out" to my absolute ALL time favorite pizza parlors in Birmingham

NEW YORK PIZZA (it's in Homewood)

but first.....I forgot to mention what a great G-man "W" is.

Here he is sharing his lemonade with his favorite girl

Back to NY Pizza

oh, yummerlicious.

We have been eating here since ours were born. That would be ATleast 28 years.

WOW.

Anyway, we usually take the whole fam and it usually takes up the entire restaurant, but this time we were missing a few :( like mom....she loves this place!

thought you'd like to see a few pics!

as usual, Evey stole the show!

(she loves her some Amy)

and Lil B hung out!

my absolutely gorgeous niece Harper wouldn't let me take her pic!

now, if you ever question whether Jordan and Callen came from the same parents....look at this

and then this!!!! "W" and I were having a hard time telling them apart last night!

there's my sweet lil boy and his sweet girl!

Eric got some Daddy time

And "Aunt Shim" got some auntie time

I was starting to get a lil jealous

...and then I was getting REALLY jealous

she's got one good looking kid there (along with three others)

ut oh. at this point I wasn't so jealous

um....back to mom

and I believe right now,,,,Jordan said "Eric, I believe it's your time"

and he agreed

after forgetting a change of clothes, he came back wrapped in a blankie!

Oh, the fun I have with my fam!

Today????? Roll Tide

We're headed to the game for a fun tailgate party!

Have a wonderful Saturday y'all!
oH! by the way, Jordan has some DARLING new designs on her blog...

"W"

Okay, someone asked what "W" does.

Well,,,,,for one, his name really isn't "W". But, we'll keep that private.

(He's a lot more private than me).

Ya know, I tell you guys everything I do on a daily basis.

Anyway,

10 things about "W"

1) he's the smartest man I know

2) he's the most generous man I know

3) we've been married almost 30 blissful years (well, it hasn't always been blissful, but who's has???)

4) He's absolutely the best dad anyone could ask for (and my kids will 2nd that)

5) I love him to pieces

6) he just lost 20 lbs and is working out like a crazy man!

7) he's an entrepreneur

8) he's started many, many companies, taken them public and then sold them

9) he doesn't mind (well sometimes) if I buy shoes with red soles and he loves to give me jewelry!

10) he takes really good care of me

idn't he cute? (and he'll wear a pink shirt!)

Huge Honor!

I have just received about the "highest" honor that I could receive!

Now. I know that I'm "tooting" my own horn here, but ya know, as I've gotten older, I've realized if you don't do it, no one will!!! A lot of artist have to do a lot of "self promotion"

With that being said.....

I have just had the prestigious honor of being chosen as one of the artists to participate in the

High Arts Day for the High Museum in Atlanta.

http://highartsday.mxmsite.com/artists

I had such a fun time going to this really cool place to have my pic made for their web site. This website will go to all the patrons of the High Museum! (which is a lot of folks!)
