back to blogging

I'm finally back to blogging!

Nathan and I just returned today from our trip to Ohio for his brother's high school graduation. We had a really great time, full of relaxing and spending time with his wonderful family. A few highlights of the trip:

• going to Toledo and hanging out by Lake Erie
• visiting the Toledo Zoo (the otters were adorable)
• listening to a lot of Stevie Wonder, The National, Michael Jackson, and Elton John
• surprise birthday gifts from the Drydens
• going to the neighborhood pool
• playing basketball with Nathan and his awesome little brother Isaac
• throwing a 200-person party for Jared's graduation
• staying up late chatting with Nathan's parents
• watching Disney's Robin Hood
• spending 8 hours in the car with Nathan each way

Now that we're back in Nashville, it's time to settle into a normal routine..... except for today, of course, cause it's my 21st birthday! Tonight I'm going out to dinner at Margot Cafe & having a fancy drink with my meal. I'm so excited! I wish all of my friends were in town, though (such as Stephanie & Sarah!!!).

I'm happy to be back home with my darling kittens and my fabulous roommate. This place definitely feels like home. Here are a few pictures of my apartment! Come visit this summer.... the pool is open finally. =)

The dining room... which is quickly becoming my favorite room
