Mini Nashville Trip

Our friends Heather and Kyle told us they had never been to Nashville, so of course if David hears that a road trip is definite! So, we packed up and headed up to Nashville. David always has a hotel hook up, plus our McWane Center membership gets us in free to a science museum up there, so it is adding up to be a fun time already! The museum there isn't quite as nice as McWane, but SK still had a blast. I am learning the hard way that my "baby" is growing up. She is now much less scared to run off and try something new - with or without mommy right next to her. She even climbed up a huge play ground and slid down a slide that is like two stories up! Of course when her daddy saw she could do it he had too also. I tried to get their pictures coming out of the slide, but you can see I'm not the best photographer in the world.

For dinner we wanted to go to the Spaghetti Factory, but a two hour wait and to toddlers are NOT a great combination. So, we went a few doors down to a place called Dick's Last Resort. David went in San Antonio and has talked about it a TON ever since, so he twisted our arms into going. The theme there is all the waiters are rude (not sure how this became a successful business model, but so it is). The food was good and the wait staff wasn't super mean, just pretty funny. They make "hats" out of butcher paper with goofy sayings on them. Below are Kyle's (I got more action in prison) and Jackson's (Jailbait). I got a hat too, but somehow my picture got messed up and we don't have any proof - um I mean memories!

We also walked through the Opryland Hotel - it is SO pretty! David always says we could be in the middle of the dessert and I would run into someone I know, it happens almost everywhere we go. Well, this weekend couldn't be any different - we ran into my cousins who were up taking a weekend trip too! What's funny is we live in the same town as my cousin and never see her here, but we trek to Nashville and there she is with her whole family. :)
