nashville!!! fall break!!

so last weekend we roadtriped it to nashville for fall break... it was sooo much fun!! rachel and karin's brother and sister just got married (rach's bro david and karin's sis heather) and had a baby and moved to nashville... so we went and stayed with them... it was the first time the girls had seen the baby. and amy's boyfriend chris just transferred to belmont so she stayed with him and friends all weekend and i stayed with them on friday night. it was an amazing time. i'll comment-tate as you go through the pictures... oh, and hopefully i'll get some more soon from tommy bailey... cuz, yeah... i totally got to hang out with him and his girlfriend emily this weekend and thad hawk... totally random but oh so much fun!!! i miss them and love them!!! so here we go... away with jane and joe! ;) he he.

ha ha!! friday night i went out on the town with chris and jimmy davis and amy... and this is chris and amy talking... i thought it was hillarious! still do, just so you know. :)

awe, i love my amester!

this is us at sams. it was fun!

this is rachel's brother david and baby savannah sleeping!

here's mommy heather and rach brushing savannah's hair getting her all ready for church sunday... which... by the way... AAHH!!!
so we went to peoples church, apparently it's rebecca st. james' home church and i was all disappointed cuz she had led worship last weekend... but!!! i saw her!!! she walked past us like 4 times and then sat right behind her so the whole service i could see her out of the corner of my eye and hear her laughing and whatnot. i about wet my pants. :) no, i didn't say hi... rach wanted to ask her to lunch, but i was afraid to be giddy like a crazy fan. someday though, i shall meet her and we shall have a real conversation and it shall be hot! :)
i spent a lot of time by myself, just being still and quiet, exploring nashville, driving around, going to libraries and just being. it was so amazing. i hung out with the olson's and grilled out with their neighbors and played with the cute neighbor kids, cody, kirsten and riley. they were sooo much fun!! wish i could babysit them!! :) we went shopping with heather's friend at opryland mall, and then i hung out with tommy and emily and thad and thad's friend from work saturday night. it was an amazing weekend!!

on the way home we stopped at trevecca. i wanted rach to see the waterfall/lake/fountain i'd discovered and i purchased a trevecca nazarene university hoody... i have this goal in life to get a hooded sweatshirt from all the nazarene schools (maybe even brazil or korea!!) so far i have olivet, southern and trevecca. weird, huh? i don't have a mt. vernon one!! but i will soon, i have no doubt. :)

and this is a picture of the porch swing that i am oh so jealous of that is on trevecca's campus... they have several of them, just around. and i am going to email this photo to building and grounds... wouldn't that be totally hot if olivet got some porch swings?? oh to just swing!! :)


ah yes... the way home... ame took tons of pictures of us dancing tand doing motions to my little kiddy music. enjoy... and check out my hot sweatshirt!! :)
