#ThrowbackThursday


These pictures popped up in my Timehop app today and since I've been missing my sister, I thought it would make for a  good post!


This time last year was the week after my first music festival, Music Midtown. I had no idea what I was getting into and I loved every minute of it! The second day it rained almost all day, we trudged through mud, wiped our ranch fingers on trees from lunch, and it was AWESOME! I had such a great time and made memories that will last a lifetime! 

Seeing Weezer in the pouring rain was a stand out memory....but the below is one for the record books..obviously! haha...

Looking for the bright stars


So Saturday (9/20/14) heaven got another little puppy angel. Snowflake was only with us for a short time; a mere 5 1/2 years. I feel extremely blessed to have had her with me for that amount of time, though it was much shorter than I ever would have imagined. 

She was with me as I laughed, cried, thought my life was over, and when I realized it had just begun.

Before she got sick, I spent more time with her than any other human. She always slept by my side (or under my pillow) and I never had to be alone if she was in the house, including sitting right under my feet as I cooked in the kitchen. I am a firm believer in everything happening for a reason, and I have no doubt that the season of my life she was a part of is when I probably needed her the most. 


 She may have been a very spoiled little princess (hey, she was the first granddog after all!), she was never short on love. Her grandpappi's were probably her favorite. When I would drive to their house all I had to do was pull in the driveway and she knew exactly where we were; she'd start barking like crazy until I got her into the house. She also loved her auntie and sister Cocobutt; the 4 of us often spent fun times either playing wrestle mania or water park adventures. I could go on and on about all the people that played a role in her life..but I will just stick with pictures...they speak louder anyway (If I left you out, I'm sorry..there were WAY MORE than I realized I had!)


I'm not sure she ever met a person she didn't love and her ability to warm up to people so quickly is what will stick with me. We can all learn a little from that!


Though my heart is breaking at the thought of not hearing her little bark when I come into the house, I am happy that she is finally out of her misery. She got sick last November and the poor thing had been in and out of the vet at least every month, if not every few weeks, since then. She took it like a champ though, even if she was quite the little princess.

Last Fling Before the Ring


 Last night we went out to celebrate little Cayce's upcoming wedding. We bounced all over downtown Nashville and had a blast spending time with each other. Hard to believe this girl is getting married!

Every End is a New Beginning

I officially signed off the papers today to close on the house that I have lived in almost 3 years.


Here's to new adventures and beginnings!

Live on the Green

So I've only lived in Nashville my entire life, and never knew there were free concerts downtown in the summer! ...That or I just never bothered. Looking into it. This year I took gander and really wanted to go, but had no one to go with. I was complaining to my other half in the library last Friday about my dilemma when she said that her son and friends were going and he would take me. The rest is history!
Last night I went downtown and got to see Johnny Swim and Cage the Elephant at Live on the Green with these 2 strapping (very) young gentlemen! It was a fun time, though I am kinda bummed that I only discovered this awesome gem the closing weekend! Next summer I gotta get on the boat sooner!



"They think they know my thoughts, but they don't know in the least.
If they listened to the words they'd find the message that's beneath.
But it goes in one ear and right out the other..."

Be Nice...or not?

Today is actually "Be Nice" day in Williamson County, so I woke up and put on my "Be Nice" shirt, got ready as normal, and went to my car to leave.....only to find out that my car had been broken into. This has never happened to me before and I didn't know what to do. It appeared that they only emptied the center console and glove compartment onto the seats, but upon further inspection I've discovered my GPS is missing (which was old anyway). Only thing that freaks me out about that is all the addresses that were saved in it. So here I am, going to be late to school, as I wait for the police to come file a report.


At least they left the #GlitterGlasses. If only I could see what they saw last night...

You Only Live Once, that's the motto **** YOLO


So last night my BFF and I went to the Drake vs. Lil' Wayne concert in South downtown Atlanta. What a show!! We have loved Drake since he was Jimmy on Degrassi and were actually supposed to see him in concert last November before my doggy got sick, so somehow at the last minute this mini trip worked out! The show was quite entertaining between the dialogue between the 2 rappers and singing along to songs we have only heard at a distance. Either way, we both agreed that it was so worth it and Britt was even able to knock this one off her bucket list! 

Thanks Bert-a-bee for taking me out!
