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!

Cuz it's her birthday...

Happy Birthday Alexis!!


(on new year's eve in 2007, rockin' our bangs)

This is my gorgeous, stylish, fantastically red-headed friend, Alexis Anderson.
And it's her BIRTHDAY!! If she lived nearby, I'd make her cupcakes and sing her a song...

But, she's in Little Rock, so I'll share my love here, with all of you, in the blog world.

Alexis and I met through our sorority, Tridelta, by being in the same pledge class. Alexis is also from Marion, so she's been friends with Keith even before I met either one of them.
We hit it off immediately and spent lots of time between class together out on the front porch of the 'Delta Shelta' on Maple Street. We grew to be great friends and she means so much to me. I don't get to see her enough, but no matter how time passes or what changes, we still have a blast together.

She's also started a blog about her shopaholic adventuresome life, Confessions of a Shopaholic. Maybe she'll post more often now that I've announced it here..... :)

I love this Lexy Chik and wish her the best birthday ever!!! And hereby crown her my Friend of the Week!

(As promised, below are a few pics of us from college. It seems like we were dressed up in costumes or in formals a lot!)


Freshman year formal
