Today I went strawberry picking with Megan and Ken, Jenny and Kevin and Megan's friend from college, Jen Watson. What fun we all had! It was a perfect day, slightly overcast, a nice warm breeze and no pesky bugs were out! As you can see I got a wonderful bucket of strawberries! Can't wait to eat these luscious berries for breakfast tomorrow!

Well we went to a wedding Saturday night and the USC Gamecock mascot joined us for the reception! We have never been to a wedding with a twist like that at the reception. The mascot took up most of the dance floor. Very different wedding/reception that's for sure!

I had my golf outing for work yesterday and I must say I am an awesome putter!! The other 3 guys on my team played "me" (they did my driving since I can't do that yet). They kept saying I'm Cheryl now, then they argued a little towards the end about who was me! They are a bunch of crazy guys! It was tons of fun but I was definitely tired last night and slept really well!

Well I'm not a grandmother yet but I do have a granddog now!!! Jenny and Kevin adopted Cash from the Charlotte Humane Society yesterday. What a cutie pie!!! He is named after Johnny Cash, whom Jenny and Kevin really like (which I didn't know). Cash is half Schipper and half Eskimo Dog. What a wonderful little thing!

So you can see my dress, this is a picture of Tawny, Jenny, Shawna, Devyn and myself before we left the house to go to the wedding. We were all in my bedroom waiting for the bride to get ready and my sister snapped this picture.

Just wanted to share a picture of the tree peony I'm growing in my back yard. It opened yesterday and it is gorgeous!!! It just started to rain a bit so I bet it won't be this gorgeous for long!

I'm reading Bull's Island by Dorothea Benton Frank now. I went to a book signing of hers last night and she had us all rolling in the aisle and tears streaming down our faces! She is an awesome person. Bull's Island made it to #9 on the NY Best Sellers List this week! This book is about an island off of South Carolina and as Dot puts it the characters in the books are all liars! She said the name of the book should have just been "Bull"! She said there is a big ol' bull alligator living on the island (for real she saw it) and he has a girlfriend! Dot is a member of the SC conservancy committee and she is working with everyone on the committee to preserve the environment. I hope everyone who reads this book enjoys it as much as her other books! I know I will. She told us she is now writing a sequel to Sullivan's Island! Can't wait for that one to come out!!
