A Visit with Granny & Nikia

While we were in Tennessee this last trip we decided to take granny and Nikia to The Hermitage and show them where we were planning to get married.  I think that they liked it :)  It was a beautiful day and our trip even included a free tour of the grounds.  We also met our DJ so that we could figure out exactly where they would set up and sign a contract.


This is the spot where we will be married.


Nice shade tree in the cocktail hour garden :)


Some fun pictures of the bride and groom around the property.






Nikia looking pretty :)



Inside the house on our tour.....shhhhhh don't tell them because we were not supposed to take pictures. 



Way to hot to be wearing such a thick dress.





Butterflies just seem to like him :)

CCCHS Graduation

Kurt and I took a special trip to Tennessee for memorial day weekend for multiple reason.  We were going to sign the contract for our wedding location, spend memorial day cooking out with my granny, and see my youngest cousins graduate.  It was a rushed weekend but it was fun.  We left PA and barely made it to the graduation but we got there just in time. I saw so many people I knew and being back at Austin Peay really reminded me how old I am that I graduated 10 years ago at the same place. The boys looked great in their Maroon Cap & Gown and we were both so proud of them.  Pictures Below:

Officially High School Graduates.  Somehow we missed them after the ceremony with all the people and commotion.  It was a great day!
