As I said yesterday, what a weekend! Robert so nicely let me have a night off to head to Nashville to see my friend Lyndsay and my wanna-be friend, Beyonce. It. was. awesome. While I was sad to be away from my boys, I thoroughly enjoyed the 24 hours in Nashvegas! π
Saying bye to my two cuties…
When I got to Nashville, Lyndsay and I went out to lunch and I sent this picture to Robert to let him know I had made it and was enjoying myself.
I guess Robert showed Maxwell the picture because when I called a bit later, Maxwell got on the phone and said “Where are you Momma? you havin’ some orange juice?” ha! Yes, Maxwell, some very good orange juice! π
We had a great day and then hung out at Lyndsay’s office before heading to the concert. Her office has the best location with a whole glass wall overlooking Broadway in downtown Nashville.
Loved getting to see some old friends!
I could have stood up there and people watched all night!
We headed over to the concert (just one block from her office) around 9:00. Ready for Queen Bey!
We had AWESOME seats. The show was incredible. I’m not a die-hard Beyonce fan or anything, but I was pretty star-struck. She can put on a great show. The dancing alone was worth it! I think my favorite number was the mashup of Single Ladies and the theme song to the Jeffersons! what?! So, so fun. I danced all night and loved every second!
The people watching at the concert was pretty awesome too. Especially these ladies…
God bless Beyonce and the USA! π
Meanwhile, back in AL… Robert’s family was actually having a little “Fam Jam” as they like to call it. Robert’s cousins from California were in town so the entire side of my mother-in-law’s family went to Montgomery for the night to see each other. Robert bravely took both boys down and enjoyed the zoo, swimming and a day of fun. Thankfully, the boys were super well behaved for him and both slept great. Major props to Dad for taking such good care of everyone!
As much fun as I had in Nashville, I couldn’t wait to get home to my boys! There’s nothing like going away to make you appreciate what you have. I think that means I need to go away more often, right?! Ha! Just kidding, Robert…well, until October! π
See you tomorrow!
