Nashville

Over Labor-Day weekend we took a short trip to Nashville. I fell in love! I don't know quite how to describe it other than to say it felt like coming home. I sincerely hope we get to live there one day. It's beautiful and green with rolling hills and a very rich history.

The Carnton House and Plantation in Franklin, TN - the house served as a civil war hospital. It is beautifully restored and has many visible blood stains from the surgeries performed there. I was fascinated with this little town. We enjoyed walking the historic district and visiting the shops downtown.
Replica of the Parthenon
The Grand Ole Opry Hotel - this is just one small shot of the indoor garden, it's amazing! 
I wish we could have spent more time there, but hopefully we will get the chance to go again soon!

Summer Fun

I can't believe how fast the past year has flow by. Here is a quick recap of our fun last summer.
Pirate Caleb- our local library had a summer reading program and the kids that participated got invited to a pirate party with Pirate food, supper cute.
