Nashville

This past weekend, James and I met our friends Lindsey and David in Nashville for the weekend. Lindsey & David are good friends of ours from college. They moved up to Indianapolis after they got married, when David's job took them there. We are still dying to go to Indy one weekend, but Nashville is actually the halfway point between Atlanta and Indianapolis, so we decided to meet there for the weekend. Rachel and her husband Brad were supposed to join in on the weekend fun, but unfortunately they could make it! We missed The Davidsons, but we definitely enjoyed our stay in Nashville. We ended up staying right downtown within walking distance of everything, which was really nice!


Both couples arrived in Nashville on Friday night, around 7:30 and we were famished, so we headed to a Mexican place that our concierge recommended. Queso and Margs? Yes please! After dinner we headed straight out to they honkey-tonks... yes, thats right... honkey-tonks. Since I had never been to Nashville before, I literally laughed out loud when someone suggested we go to the honkey-tonks. But I definitely enjoy country music, so I was down for a little boot scootin' boogie.

On Saturday, we had a lazy morning and then headed to lunch at Puckett's, which was just a few blocks away from our hotel. A friend green tomato BLT and diet coke definitely hit the spot. After lunch, we did a little sightseeing.

The rest of the day and night on Saturday we found ourselves back in the honkey-tonks, taking in all of the live music.









We had a blast in Nashville, and are getting ready to pack our bags again to head out of town again this weekend. We are headed up to Big Canoe for an Ostenson Family weekend trip!
