Nashville

We did it! We took our weekend and went away with out the boys. It was a really great time with the exception of this awful cold I have. The one part I was looking forward to the most was a good nights sleep because Thomas is not a sleeper and not having him around would mean two fantastic nights of sleep. WRONG!!! Not when you spend the entire two nights up coughing your lungs out.

A few of the fun things we did while we were in Nashville was visit the Country Music Hall of Fame, I love country music so this was great for me. Eric probably not so much be he loves history so I think he still enjoyed himself.

Also went to The Parthenon, Nashville's version of the Ancient Greece temple of the Roman Gods.

Finally, The Hermitage, the cotton plantation and home to Andrew Jackson our 9th President.

All very interesting and very cool things to see and do. I have a few pictures and more to share but my thoughts are not all together yet so I will share more about our trip later.

For now I am just happy to be home and feel like I have all my weekend chores to catch up on.

I hope you took some pictures of the parthenon. I'm wondering what it looks like! I'm glad you got away. Sorry about the lack of sleep. I hope you feel better soon!

How fun! Sorry you aren't feeling well, but how nice that at least you didn't have to deal with kids while you were sick!

Sounds like you had a good time! I don't think I am ready for a weekend away yet. Sad, I know! :)

I hope you feel better before you have to make that cake! I also hope it turns out fantastic!

As for itunes...I don't actually purchase music off of there, I don't want to pay money for music when I barely use my ipod now that I haven't been running. But with podcasts, they are free. So that is cool! :) Try it out sometime! :) It's totally worth it! Some of them are silly, so you have to try more than one if you don't like the first one!
