Dallas

Do I usually look like a chipmunk / woodchuck / groundhog when I smile?  Sheesh, I gotta practice in front of a mirror....  I guess people aren't going to be looking at me when there are such cute kids in the photos! 

We visited my brother and sister-in-law's house in Dallas on our way back west.  The first photo is Chris and I with Owen and Eli, the cutest little diaper clad twins I can imagine.  The second (bucktoothed) photo is me and baby Garrett, who I met for the first time! Oh man, what a thunder-chunk.  SO adorable!

1.1 & 1.2 Nashville

Now that I'm back in school full swing, I'm finally posting the rest of our road trip photos! 

On the first day of the new year, Chris and I drove to beautiful Nashville.  I knew we would havea  great time there, but it definitely exceeded our expectations. What a great city!  People were very friendly, it seemed really safe, and boy howdy was the music great. 

We went to Robert's Western World to see a few bands and grab dinner.  A lot of bars and music venues are concentrated on one strip in downtown.  I love the neon signs!
