We drove to Nashville in a flash; checked into our hotel and wasted no time. We dashed over to Toy R Us to get the party started.
Yes, we understand that nearly every store we went to we could go to at home...but we go on this trip to do the majority of our shopping in two/three days, with no children, no husbands, no interuptions and no schedule. It's divine!
We spent our entire Saturday at the mall...so fun, but completely exhausting! My dad, who lives nearby, came to have lunch with the four of us. We enjoyed his company! Tara hasn't spent any time around my dad and I together...and she couldn't get over how similar our personalities are. Kept her laughing...
Three amigas...guess Tara was indisposed.
I decided early Saturday that I'd capture 'funnies' with my camera...here are a few of our finds.
The shoes themselves are not so funny...the funny part was the 30-something aunt trying them on to see if they would fit a teenage niece.
We had a crazy waiter at Chilis...he kept Tara's Dr. Pepper separate by putting 6 straws in it...so of course we made her drink through all of them.
Saturday night, we decided that we'd go to a movie. None of us have read Twilight, but that's what we agreed to see. We were not disappointed...and we'd all like to go see it again. Three of us bought the book the next day...I got mine with a gift card, and Debbie is going to mooch a book off the first one done reading. She did purchase the soundtrack, so that was cool to listen to on the way home.
Anywho...here is a picture of our stash...we got a lot accomplished!! The luggage is under there somehere!
I love traveling period, but I really enjoy getting away with just the girls every now and then (thanks, honey!). If this is not something you do, I highly recommend it!

Looks like it was a really fun trip. And I'm glad to hear that I'm not the last person on the earth to have not read Twilight yet. Love the funnies.
It looks like the best trip! And, I can't believe the looks of the car at the end!
