Love Me Tender- 3rd Anniversary



Tyson and I took a trip to Memphis last weekend to celebrate our 3rd Anniversary.We had an amazing time. Jack stayed with my parents and they loved every minute of it. We visited Graceland (which I can now officially mark off my bucket list), partied at Alfred's on Beale Street (where I got called up on stage and was sang to by an Elvis impersonator), ate amazing b.b.q, and narrowly escaped death in the ghettos of Memphis (I'm exaggerating, but it's a long story). We have accomplished a lot in the past three years; we bought a house, got married, had a baby, Tyson started his business and I started a new job. We have been together nearly 9 years and have grown up so much together. We have built strong relationships with ourselves, each other, and also with our family and friends. I love Tyson more today than ever. One thing I realized when Jack was born is that no matter how full you think your heart was before, there is an astounding amount of extra room for more and more love. I love my family so much and am grateful for them every day!
 
 
 
 
 
 
 

The pool room's walls and ceiling were covered entirely in fabric. Elvis's taste was definitely over-the-top.
The family room had a waterfall built into the wall.
This was Lisa Marie's swing set. It was located outside Vernon Presley's (Elvis's dad) office.
 
 
I'm wearing headphones in some of the pics- there was audio commentary that accompanied the tour.

Same make & model as the one at the farm!
Elvis was such a cheater 

The letter Elvis wrote President Nixon suggesting that he would love to be hired on to work as an agent in his war on drugs campaign. Pretty ironic....
