A Southern Dinner Party

Last weekend Ashley and Alan hosted our family at their house for a different kind of farm-to-table dinner party--a quail fry. The quail came from a hunting trip my dad, brother, and Kyle took back in January over MLK weekend. You could tell the boys were particularly proud to be frying up the fruits of their labor. ;)

We served the quail with collard greens, cornbread cooked in a cast iron skillet, macaroni and cheese, and a platter of deviled eggs. And you can't forget the banana pudding for dessert! It was a decidedly Southern evening with my family that felt a little bit like Thanksgiving in February. Here are just a few of the photos I captured from our night together.

And as you might've noticed, I chopped my hair off! I always get so impatient while growing my hair out, and this time I made it almost a year before it was time for a change. Though my stylist cut it a little bit shorter than I originally planned, I really love my new bob now!
