Hello! Welcome to Keeping Up with the Joneses. Thanks for stopping by! We're a young couple living in the East Arkansas/Memphis area otherwise known as The Delta, with a love for family, friends, faith and food.

We believe that some of the best memories are created at home around the dinner table, and when entertaining those you love. This little blog is where I share recipes, wine, our home and our life. Enjoy! -Kendall

What You'll Find:

I love to try new recipes. In fact, I rarely make the same thing twice. I'm a bona-fide cookbook collector, Pinterest addict and magazine aficionado. On the blog, you'll see what I've got cooking.

I love wine, y'all, so from time to time I feature bottles I've loved. Crafts and decorating our little house are passions of mine, so you may see some of that. Thanks for stopping by!

Let's get lifted...

John. Legend.

Know him? Love him like me? Say hello to this handsome musical genius:



Surely you are familiar...he sings some great songs like: Ordinary People, Stay With You, Green Light, Let's Get Lifted.....

Buy his CD(s) if you don't have 'em- you will fall in love :)

Anyway, we got to see him Thursday night in Tunica! It was great concert because it was so small at the Harrah's event center, nice and intimate.

We met our good friends, Lauren and Lee, and had dinner at Paula Deen's restaurant beforehand.






And there he is - singin' his heart out. to me.

This is the song he opened the concert with. It's an old Bob Marley song, but I love the way John sings it:




We also spent our day off, Friday, with Lauren and Lee. The girls did some great shopping in Memphis and got our nails done, while the boys golfed at Tunica National. That night we went to The Beauty Shop for dinner, one of my favorite places!



And it was delicious....



Lauren and Lee get married in October, so we had a great time talking about 'the married life' over our dinner. Keith and I shared our one year's worth of advice; I'm sure we'll say different things 5 years from now! :)

I was SO happy to get that much time with Lauren. I've missed her a lot! We hope the Strothers-to-be will come see us again soon!
