Whadda Weekend

Wow. Last weekend was absolutely great.

After watching the Grizz lose to the Spurs in overtime on Wednesday, Peter and I decided we'd get tickets for Game 6 in the FedEx Forum. We were fortunate to get tickets before they sold out and witness first-hand the Grizzlies' first playoff series win. Believe Memphis.

Saturday we spent the afternoon with our church family at a Crawfish Boil. The party was planned for church members of all ages; a face-painter, moon-bounce and other entertainment were present for the kiddos. We were at the party until early evening when we headed over to Playhouse on the Square.

Saturday night we attended Playhouse on the Square's Annual Original Art Auction. A sweet artist friend of ours knew we were in the market for some new pieces, so she gave us her tickets to the event. We ending up getting two unique and original pieces {more on those later} for incredible prices while supporting local theater. Definitely a win for everyone!

Sunday, we moved all of our current artwork around in order to accommodate the new purchases. Finally, after three years of having nothing for the space, we were able to outfit the nook in our hallway with my great grandmother's work and a table we found at the World's Apart Outlet on Hollywood.

  

After such a wonderful weekend, I really didn't want to head back to Nashville. But my better sense prevailed and I am now in Nashville ready to kick off another, very accelerated, semester. Here goes nothing.
