Jacobs Family Adventure: Going to Memphis

YEP! we're going to Memphis to see cousin Elvis!.. tis Wednesday morning-ish and we're packing up and headin out to rainy Graceland!

We spent a few days here in Fort Worth and had a blast visiting our friends Roger, Julia, Marry and Abby. They are the coolest family and have been such a blessing and encouragement to me and my family! They have a beautiful home in a beautiful neighborhood.. they even have a replica mini version of their home Julia's dad built complete with furniture, electricity and AC!.. How cool is that!

I'm thinking.. if we can't find a home in Virginia maybe we can ask Julia's dad to build us a mini house and fed-ex it to us!

We so-much wish we could stay (for ever) but we still need to find a home in Virginia.

Roger and I had the chance to record a rockin' hymn in his studio! - He was gracious to let me do the vocals.. watch the quicky video i slapped together on my netbook below!

who's the fat guy on the left?

On our drive to Rogers and Julia's one fine day we GPS'd a nearby park to let the kids run wild for a few:

We also had a chance to visit Marie's Grampa Calvin and hook up with Mom and Don and Chris. G Calvin is looking so good. Last time we visited he was in the hospital.. God is good! G Calvin gave an early birthday card to Joey and Joeseph was sooo excited!

We got to eat at our favorite joint.. the Texas Grill in Fort Worth with G Calvin. He out ate us all! - He slammed down this giant burger in record time.. quite amazing!

The Texas Grill is a hidden gem inside a strip mall somewhere in Fort Worth.. it's D'licious! They have 2 free rocking horses that the kids LOVE!!! ahh the simple pleasures of a kids life.
