Vacation oh nine!

It seems like we were gone forever! Whit, Liv & I left last Saturday to go visit Ashley, Jon, Brook and Chad! It was such a fun road trip!! We laughed a lot, stopped every hour, slept in ghetto places, went on random adventures, got lost, met cool people, walked all over Louisville and Nashville, saw Chad's show, played some corn hole, and went to lots of coffee shops! It doesn't get any better than that :)


Stop#1-Tallanasty!

After years, we finally got to visit Ash in Tallahassee! It was so good to see her! We didn't have much time to spend there but made the best of the time we did have! That night we went out for sushi and then walked around downtown and then got coffee at a really cute coffee shop. Am I wrong or is Tallahassee filled with creepers?...Haha, ran into an abundance of them! We stayed with Ash that night at her apartment. Liv and I got to sleep in the abandoned room that only had a mattress in it... No sheets and no bed frame and the floor was covered with tumbleweeds of hairr from the chick that used to live there....sickkkk! I am a clean freak, so this was a stretch for me. I just had to keep reminding myself to get over it! I thoroughly enjoyed using my beach towel as a bed sheet that night...it was hilarious!

Stop#2-Louisville, Kentucky!

My good friends Brooke & Jon Malko just moved up there, so we went to visit them for a few days! There place is so cute and we had such a good time with them! It was so good to see them. I miss them living down here so much! This is the 3rd time I've been able to go visit there, and I love it more everytime! I love all the architecture of the buildings and the character of the city! Not like Florida at all! Liv and Whit loved it! We spent most of our time on bardstown road! Lots of cute shops! We were pretty much the only people that showered on a daily basis on that road! Hippies!

Stop#3- Nashville, Tennessee!

We went to Nashville to see our good friend Chad! His band, Yellow Cavalier, was having their 1st show at exit/in, and we wanted to be their to support them! It was an awesome venue! The other bands that played that night were more indie/rock and with Yellow Cavalier being mostly pop you can see that there would be some talk... It was pretty funny. When they were setting everything up people started talking. They were asking us why the guys were just standing there not holding any instruments. We were so nervous for them! When they started I looked back and all the scene kids looked memorized! It was one of the funniest things I've seen in a long time. They were in shock, but they so liked it! I was really impressed with how well they did. Their performance was better than all the other bands there that night!! So proud of them! Get it boooiiiisss! :)

I loved Nashville! It was my first time there. It was a lot different than I expected. It was more spread out! Wish we could of spent more time there!!

This was just a summary of everything. Got to do ALOT! :) We has such a good time! One thing I noticed while we were away was that when your on a trip you're always looking for the most exciting ways to spend your time, are always flexible and carefree and make the best with what you have...you live creatively! It's so easy to live a routine life and be a routine Christian. I have fallen into it many times, but it will get the best of you! Live creatively! Be creative in the way you show your love for Christ! Live with passion and excitement for what's to come. We have so much more purpose in Christ than to miss out on an incredible journey and an opportunity to reach others!!! ♥
