our trip to Opryland 2008

Today we went to see the Christmas decorations and lights at the Opryland Hotel in Nashville, TN. It was sooooo awesome...this hotel is just unbelievable..there is something to look at every turn. I have never heard soooo much country/western music ever..hahahaha..it was fun...Connie and I ate at Applebee's...it was delicious...and of course...we had fun !!! When we finally arrived at the hotel, we had only been there a few minutes and guess who we saw ???? Robin Meade...she is the anchor woman for the Morning Express on Headline News...Clint and I watch her every morning before work..it was soooo cool and she was soooooooo nice..and sooo pretty..I know this may sound silly..but, it was pretty awesome ....and the hotel was excellent...another wonderful day trip with my friend connie...!!!!

we have 28 days till we leave for New York City...we are soooooo excited...I can not even begin to put into words what this feels like...it's excitement, nervousness, joy all rolled together..hahhaha..can you tell that we are excited ??? We are staying on Broadway...which is unbelievable to even think about...I am gonna take like a million pictures...On Friday when we arrive...is the concert and then we have all day Saturday to sight see and we also have some time Sunday before we head back home...My friends and I are already talking about our next trip...we wanna go to Canada...sounds cool eh ????? I heard that there was a Canadian Amputee Hockey team...is that not like the coolest thing ever..what a sense of purpose and pride...to make the team and be able to play...there is nothing like being a part of a team...I am gonna try to get more regular with my writing...its more for me...than anything else...just so I can document...put on paper...these important things that are going on....so, i don't forget...sooooo much has happened this year....with all of our travels and the wonderful people that I have the opportunity to meet...like my friend Patty...who went with me, macey and laura to Biloxi...on our buble escapades....she is just soooo awesome ....I hope she and her girls get to go to NYC...what a girls weekend !!!! okay...more later on...
