Nashville

 October 16th is our anniversary.  We celebrated this past weekend with a trip to Nashville.  We dropped the girls off with Steve's parents in the Memphis area.  They had a cute cake to welcome the girls.  We are so thankful the girls were able to stay with them!  They were in good hands and the girls loved being with them.

 We stayed at the Gatlord Hotel and Resort.  SOOOOOOO NICE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!  We had the biggest hotel room I have ever stayed in.  This picture does not do it justice.

 We went to the Grand Ole Opry.  We had never been.  It was such an enjoyable show!  I saw a bit nervous during the show becasue they call people up to play games between acts.  I would have been sooooooo chawed.  A lady was called up on stage to play a game called "Dance or Dare."  Steve and I were laughing SOOOOOO hard thinking about me being up there.  She took the dare and had to dance to the song, "country girl shake it for me now shake it for me for me now shake it for me."   Luke Bryan sings that.  Steve said if I had been up there, he would have been GONE when I came back to my seat.  Haha!

 Jim Ed Brown was one of the hosts.  I knew him from somewhere....a commercial?  a show?  a movie?  Looked very very familiar to me.

 Do you watch the ABC show "Nashville?"  Here is Will.  The crowd went CRAZY for him!!!!!

 We really enjoyed Joey and Rory.  They were on "Can you Duet?' and made it big!  I LOVED  Gwen Sebastian.  She went really far on "The Voice" and was so good!!!!!

 After the show!

 Sunday we went to downtown Nashville and went to the Johnny Cash museum.  I LOVE his music!!!!!!

 Then we ate at Joe's Crab Shack and went to the Country Music Hall of Fame.  It was wonderful!!!!  The thing I liked the most was seeing the Hee Haw Set and their outfits.  I watched that show as a little girl.  I also enjoyed the Reba McEntire exhibit and the Carrie Underwood exhibit.  Very interesting!

 One of my all time favorite country singers:  Travis Tritt.  I have seen him in concert three times!

I took this picture of the longest hallways in the world.

I am so very thankful for Steve!  I loved that we were able to have a little get-away!!!!!
