Memphis in May

This weekend we went to Memphis to witness our friends, Mary Elizabeth and Alan, get married!  They are both friends of ours from college and we had a wonderful time celebrating with them and reuniting with friends.  Here we are with the happy couple!
Wishing them off to honeymoon in Hawaii
After the wedding, Alan and I headed downtown to BBQ Fest
BBQ Fest is part of "Memphis in May" month-long festivities
We wandered around the tents, enjoyed the people watching, and even picked up some samples of BBQ sauce. One of them was called "Moore's Marinade" so we know that one's gotta be good :)
After that we decided to stay downtown and eat at...
 We had the cheese and sausage appetizer and split a full slab of ribs. It was finger-lickin' good!
We got to stay with Alan's sweet grandmother, Nonnie, during our time in Memphis and it was wonderful catching up with her, but it always seems our time together is never quite long enough.  We went to church with her on Sunday and then hit the road after lunch.  I am a little sad that the weekend is over, but I guess such is life...
