Meeting Our New Crew

We got to steal away our new (and old) crew who were at orientation. We took them down to the most famous Memphis BBQ restaurant, the Rendezvous. One of them dared to order unsweetened tea. It's not served there.

 It was really fun for our teen girls, as they had some school buddies who were there with their families.

 It also happened to be the birthday of my friend B. We turned it into a big celebration party! The gals on either side of B drove in for the day. H, on the left, will be Sweet Cheeks' teacher next year. J, on the right, is our precious friend who taught Firstborn in 2nd grade, helped her make a keepsake quilt, and mentored her.

 We walked downtown by the trolley for a bit, then went to get some ice cream for B's birthday. We presented our new female staff with a scarf from Turkey. Don't they look sharp?

 And not to be outdone, here are our new guys with their new Turkiye t-shirts.
