Elvis Week

Last week was Elvis Week aka Death Week! On Tuesday fans from all over the world flocked to Tupelo for Fan Appreciation Day at The Elvis Presley Birthplace. Elvis means so much to so many even today.
On Tuesday night we had a send off party for Kevin Mills (The Tupelo Tribute Artist Winner).


Kevin represented Tupelo in the Ultimate Elvis Tribute Artist Competition in Memphis on Thursday and Friday. Kevin was 1st runner up in the competition but is still Tupelo's #1! It was amazing being at the Orpheum for the competition on Friday night! Chad and I stayed the weekend in Memphis after the competition. We haven't done that in a long time so we went to almost all my favorite places ... Outdoors Inc, Fresh Market, Whole Foods, Busters and Raffe's!


Saturday Afternoon we met up with a bunch of friends at Local on Main.


We were having so much fun that we moved on to Blue Fin for sushi and people watching. Blue Fin was the 2nd stop on the stumbling Elvis pub crawl. We even ran into some people we knew!





We rounded out our trip on Sunday with lunch in Southaven with The Hildreth's (Beth, Barry, Sean, Mason). Sunday night Chad grilled the portabella and Veal that we purchased on Saturday. We had a nice and relaxing evening to get us ready for a busy work week.
