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!

Zac Brown Band on Mud Island

Last night we went to a fabulous concert on Mud Island in Memphis. Zac Brown Band was in town and we LOVE them!!

Not familiar with Memphis? Well, Mud Island is a part of land that is separated from the main Memphis downtown by a bit of water. There are lots of boats kept down there, and there is also a great park, with an amphitheater.

You can walk over the pedestrian bridge, or ride in the red monorail thing.

This was our view last night as we rode over in the red shuttle thing. It had just been pouring down rain and storming so much! We were certain we would be rained on during the whole concert. But, luckily they postponed by one hour and it was all gone!

They have amazing musical talents and their violinist rocked it out!

They have a really mellow vibe, and have some Jimmy-Buffett-esque songs. My favorites? Jolene, Free, and of course, Chicken Fried! Really, everything they sang was my favorite it seemed!

How fun! They're really good :) My hubby used to books bands at a bar in college so we got to meet them and hang out before they got all famous!
