Happy Birthday America!!!

Mike's friends Dave and Justin came in for the 4th weekend!! We all went down town Friday and Saturday night. As usual we went to one of our favorites WannaBe's and between the whole crew we sang LOTS of songs. I believe this picture is when they sang "Don't stop BELIEVING!" We are not always that good, but we sure put on a great stage performance. For example: notice my hubby in the upper right hand corner (air guitar). Mike and I sang of course "JACKSON". Some of the others were Save a horse ride a cowboy, Pickin wildflowers, and the list goes on. It's never a dull moment with these guys!! This was from Saturday night at Second Fiddle. We HEART Nashville!!!

My Post wedding Hair

I have had lots of people ask about my post wedding haircut, so here it is! Mike and I went to visit his parents Father's Day weekend. This was a picture taken at MiNu. It is one of my favorite places to eat in Washington DC. It is located in the Georgetown area and it's a very different restaurant. They have belly dancers that go around performing for each table. There is also a bird cage you can eat in. (sounds strange, but it's really neat) Anyways now back to my new haircut. As many of you know I was not expecting Mike to propose when he did and was supposed to chop my hair off the very next weekend. I told him after the proposal that I was so glad he did it before I cut my hair and of course he didn't get why. So needless to say I was soooo ready to cut my hair off after the wedding. I cut it off 3 days after the honeymoon. Mike likes it both ways, but I think he likes it better short because it doesn't take me as long to get ready. If you are in the Nashville area and need a place to go here is my salon: http://rodneymitchellsalon.com/. I have been to both in the past, but since moving back to Nashville I have only been going to Jenni in the village. She is GREAT!! This is Jenni and I on my wedding day. She of course did my hair and Jana did my makeup. Thank you ladies!!!

Real Estate Curse >:o(

Mike and I have been looking for our first home for several months. We really wanted to be outside of Nashville or in Franklin. That was until we found this house plan in Murfreesboro. The location of this subdivision is 5 minutes from the interstate and it's a really nice area. It is a European cottage style. I LOVE cottages!! If you have ever been to Murfreesboro you know that the worst thing about it is the TRAFFIC, so location to the interstate is worth lots. We put a contract down on this house and lot, well what do you know the owner of the lot sold it days before without telling the agent or builder. ahhhhhh we have had the craziest things happen in this whole adventure. I want to give up, but you really can't with this one. We are going back today to see if we can find another lot we like or can live with because this will not be our home forever. Say a prayer folks!
