nashville.Christmas.newstuff

nashville.

that is where i have spent the last two days with my mom. with my mom and in nashville. it just doesn't get much better that that.

we always find a cool place to eat, find unique little hodge podge stores and always talk, talk talk! i love being so close to such a big city. there is so much to do not to mention ample medical facilities that have been so good to granny and homer (my grandaddy) i love all of the suburbs around the ville and could explore for days and days. yesterday we went shopping and hit up three tjmaxxs, two ross's and a marshals. all super name brand discount stuff. i got lots of cool new kitchen stuff for the kitchen that i don't have...yet. mama and daddy gave me a hope chest for Christmas and lots of "stuff" to go in it...so much stuff it doesn't even begin to fit. i might have been bummed with just house stuff for my non existence house but they got me lots of other cool stuff too! they are so great and so good to me and dan! don't get me wrong i was very grateful but it was all stuff i couldn't play with. i love Christmas day because i love getting up to see what "santa" left under the tree and i love opening gifts but what is even more fun is carrying it all up to my room and playing with all of it for the nest 2-3 days. yeah, i know, how old am i? not too old to fully enjoy Christmas. i love all of my family being at my house and staying all day!

anyway i really don't want to have to buy EVERYTHING when i first move out. i know i will still need lots of stuff, but i feel good getting a jump start on it all. plus its fun to buy! buy! buy!

and a major plus we had the chance to go to "the factory." this place is so neat! it is an old factory from the 1920's and an entrepreneur has purchased the building and has placed all different kinds of neat little shops inside and it is so cutie. but the major plus was the way huge scrapbook store they had there! being in a very small town we only ever had two scrapbook stores and my favorite one just closed as the owner was moving out of town. i like variety. but this place was so cute and probably not as big as most are used to but it was HUGE to me! i spent way more money than i should have but i got some cool and different stuff. the name is creation station...ill have to bookmark this place in my mind for the next trip to the ville.

its late so im gone.

I so want to see Nashville. I've not been very many places, but that is one place on my list of things to see. So glad you had fun!
