Nashville!

Lance and I spent the last three days of 2014 in Nashville for the Music City Bowl - such a fun mini vacation for us! Thank you Mimi & Pop and Noonie & Papa J for keeping the littles! I know they had 
F U N!!

Nashville is such a fun city! I love their downtown.

I have to record this for posterity... 
Let it be known that on this day, the 30th of December two thousand fourteen, I, Jessica, was ready BEFORE my husband! hahahaha

A little shopping before the game - my kind of tailgating - ha!

Geaux Tigers! Even if LSU lost by a field goal in the very last seconds, it was still a great game. Perfect Christmas gift for Lance. LSU and Notre Dame are his #1 and #2 favorite teams.

Enjoying the Gaylord while licking our battle wounds...

My sweet friend Diane recommended the Pancake Pantry and oh my, it didn't disappoint! We tried to eat there Tuesday morning - game day - but this was the line! Like 50+ deep!

Since Lance doesn't like to wait in lines, we ended up at Bruegger's Bagels, which was yummy (Pastrami, Egg & Swiss on Pumpernickel...M'mmm), but it was not PANCAKES! We went back Wednesday morning a little earlier and we were able to go right in!

I ordered the pecan pancakes...YUM!

A quick stop at Huey's in Memphis for lunch and then we were on our way.  We made it home just in time to give these two cuties their wAcKY hATs and ring in the New Year!

Grace's was a pink bLinKIng cowgirl hat...

And Hudson's a wACkY "spaghetti noodle" one!

We had our very own video countdown, which consisted of the littles making "the ball" - a la Times Square - out of magnaforms and smashing it into the ground after their own 10 second countdown. Exciting stuff - ha!

We were so worn out from all the traveling, I fell asleep before midnight and woke up a few minutes after. Boo!

Here's to a great 2015!
