We were so lucky to have the Grandma, Grandpa and Isaac here in October for almost a whole week! We had so much fun hanging out and mostly just watching Zara do her thing, eating tons of yummy food, seeing a few sights here in Nashville, and watching many episodes of House Hunters International. Kasey and Collin even made it out for the weekend and we played a crazy game of wits and wagers :)
We had dinner at the Loveless Cafe and ate our weight in biscuits and jam. The boys took the motorcycle for a spin. Do you put that much butter in your biscuits....?
A little fall car ride through Edwin Warner Park to see the leaves.
We went and saw a Norman Rockwell at our local art museum and it was pretty great. We liked the art and Zara enjoyed eating the pamphlet about the art.
We spent an afternoon in a little town south of our house called Franklin and had fun just browsing through the stores and grabbing lunch.
Lunch at Merridee's for soup and sandwiches topped off with a smorgasbord of pies and desserty things.
Kasey and Collin! We went downtown to Jacks to get some BBQ and got caught in a crazy rainstorm. Every. single. time. my mom has been downtown it has down poured on us. Every time.
This sidewalk act on Broadway was pretty interesting, they had a lot going on.
We had to stop and get a treat at Starbucks at least one time.
Showing Grandpa all her toys. |
We took a tour of the Belle Meade Mansion and walked the grounds. Dad worked his sleepy magic on Zara, a fall time miracle!
Mom saying "Don't take Zara away from me!" |
Hanging out on the front porch, check out those shutters!
We walked around and saw the slave quarters and read about a few of the workers they kept at the house. Zara had so much fun with her Uncle Isaac.
On Halloween night the kiddos dressed up :) and we we and got some really really yummy pizza! Then we drove down a street that was all decked out for Halloween, it was a windy but warm night.
The pumpkins were amazing and there were tons of them. We decided that we think the neighborhood must have a pumpkin carving contest because some of them had ribbons.
We really enjoyed seeing everyone and making memories. :) see ya'll again soon!
