Tell All Tuesday...













Hey yall :)
Grab your coffee and have a seat-
It's tell all Tuesday!
I hope you all had a great weekend.
I was in Trenton, NJ for their Jazz Festival.















Getting to Jersey was an ordeal because they were
having bad weather and my plane was delayed
for 2 hours. I had to fly into Newark and then
drive an hour and change to get to Trenton.
(Well I didn't drive but you know what I mean) :)
















(Hangin' out in Jersey)

















It was raining cats and dogs for 2 days and then
like magic- on the day of the festival it just STOPPED.
It was so sunny and pretty I couldn't believe it.
But it was soooo HUMID!! Ugh! All my curls went flat!
















The line-up was pretty nice.
Besides their local talent, the bill featured:
KEM, Brian Culbertson, Jeffrey Osborne and Pieces of a dream.


Here are some pics of me and some the band backstage.















(Me, Joey and Kevin)

















(Me and Frankie)
















(Darrell, Kevin and CeCe)

On Sunday I got up to take a walk around
and happened to turn down a street with some
little girls jumping double dutch.
I LOVE ME SOME DOUBLE DUTCH!!!
And I can STILL jump like crazy!!















I told them I would turn for them if they let
me jump... Yall know the jumpin' rules!

They were really surprised that I could jump so well-
so they ran inside to get another cousin to see such mastery!















And a fun time was had by all! :)

















"1...2...3... HAVE A NICE TRIP!!!"
they all yelled in unison as I walked down
the street back towards my hotel...

    I never had the skills. :( I think it was because my feet were so big!

    My girlfriend and I were supposed to go to the Trenton Jazz Fest. We had to cancel at the last minute. Too bad for us, I wish I could have seen you perform. Maybe next time you are on the east coast somewhere between DC and NY.

    My neices had me jumping double dutch last summer. I had the nerve to be jumping in my bare feet! That was so much FUN.

    Aren't those pictures of those little girls divine?

    You LOOK like you can double dutch good. You look like the girl that did the pop ups, and all that.

    Were you, yo?

    PS: I love that black dress - Or, is it a long shirt?

    Those who cannot double dutch, roller skate... :)

    Sadly, I grew up with my two female cousins, so I have been forced to turn double dutch a lot growing up. Just turn, never jump.

    I'm with everyone else. I think your Sunday was better than your Saturday (not that Saturday was bad by any stretch of the imagination).

    The festival lineup sounded great. I heart Kem. His cd is great.

    I love doubledutch but haven't jumped since High SChool. Sounds like you still have the skills!

    I remember we used to have one hand on our hip and accuse folks of "you're doublehanded" when we didn't like how they turned. LOL

    It's WONDERFUL when you see little girls being just that, LITTLE GIRLS. So often now we seem them tryin to be grown, swearing, acting a fool and whatnot. I'm glad to hear you had a good time and a safe trip. Sounds like it was a great show.
