natalie's artistic side

this past weekend was a whirlwind.  it all started Wednesday night with a bacherlorette party for my friend caroline phillips (now fortenberry).  thursday we had a bridesmaid dinner at sullivans.  sooo goooood.  friday was the rehearsal dinner.  after the dinner about 10 girls spent the night at my house in maryville before the big day.  it was so fun to spend the night with caroline one last time at my house.  we woke up the next day, ate breakfast, and started working!  we spent all day tying bows, arranging flowers, making centerpieces and fixing desserts.  it was quite a day.  after everything was ready to go we headed home to get ready for the ceremony.  the night was filled with laughter, tears, dessert and dancing!! 

after the wedding i came home to quickly book a hotel reservation for natalie and i before falling asleep.  when sunday morning came we were hitting the road to atlanta!!  nat has been wanting to go to atlanta all summer, so we decided to pack out bags and go.  this was a trip of firsts.  it was the first time i drove out of the state of tennessee and the first time i checked into a hotel by myself.  i feel like i am more grown up.  it was a fun trip.  we shopped for teacher clothes, and the best part about it was that it was tax free weekend!! woo hoo!!
