Nashville Trip!

I had a great time in Nashville a couple of weekends ago! I landed at about 11:00am and Mariellen picked me up and of course we headed straight for some lunch! We ate at Nero's (yum) and did some shopping at one of my favorite spots in Nashville. I had an encounter with denim leggings for the first time at Francesca's. Well really Mariellen tried them on, I just watched. I was filling a little sluggish from stuffing myself minutes earlier at lunch! I still haven't decided what I think about them...alternative to skinny jeans? I don't know.

We then went to Murfreesboro so I could see her house for the first time, I should have taken a picture. It's beautiful, complete with two white rocking chairs and an American flag out front! :) I did get to meet Mike's and Mari's new puppy Ringo...and say hello to my old roommate Sidney-pup. For dinner we met up with Erin and ate some super yummy sushi and caught up on life.

Myself, Mariellen and Erin at Lime trying some yummy drinks after dinner! My sangria was awesome! That is on my list of things to make some day....with all the yummy fruit floating in it!

On Saturday Mariellen and I met up with Ashley at went to Arrington Vineyard which is owned by Kix Brooks. It was fun, we did a tasting (which involved a chocolate truffle that was made with the raspberry wine) and sat and enjoyed the sunshine. I loved their reisling and the KB special wine....of coure b/c it was the most expensive...dangit. :) They also had a live band playing which made it even more fun!! Mike then took Mariellen and I out for a great dinner that night!!

I had so much fun visiting, and sure wish my "mari, mari, mari" lived in the same place as me!
