This is what has taken me since just about right now to recover from! A smashing end to the Summer in Nashville with four of my sibs & an assortment of bonus friends. After being in an over-stimulated, like, high, (not literally, but you do you) for days, I've been so bummed this week. It really went by too fast.
FRIDAY and I am wearing the outfit from my latest outfit post! #accuracy
My guests arrived in a steady stream from Thursday evening until Saturday afternoon. We kicked off Friday with a little Happy Hour at my desk (yay for visits at work!) then eventually made our way to Pearl Diver. I know I haven't done a "Nashville beat" in a while but I am OBSESSED with this South Pacific themed tiki bar. This night ended with a karaoke double header, Nah! - Shania Twain by me, and Picture - Sheryl Crow & Kid Rock by Michael & I (& included other goodies in between.)
SATURDAY
I'm so neurotic that I really enjoy having an "itinerary" to share with my guests in town. Saturday started not so early with a "family run", Art made my dreams come true with homemade Crunchwraps (truly), then the ladies and I took care of grocery shopping for boat day + Labor Day. Sundar & Amber joined in the afternoon and the seven of us rendezvoused in my one bedroom apartment and waited out the thunderstorm. We danced, I gave Carina a bold eye look, it was great. THEN we headed to Live on the Green where we had VIP tickets (theeee move) to see Jimmy Eat World which was very special as family.
SUNDAY
This day was five minutes long but is that always the case when you're on a boat? We rented a double-decker pontoon (we're a Centerhill Lake family) and it was T H E most perfect lake day in the whole world. I mean, a Tennessee bluebird day. This delightful rainbow float brought to you by the Walgreens Summer clearance section. Special shout-out to Christine "Pappu" for joining us! This day concluded with Edley's BBQ & the new episode of Insecure and I was literally rocking until I went to sleep.
MONDAY
Just a good old-fashioned American grill & chill, interspersed with me attempting to convince everyone NOT to fly back to California. Not even the assorted meat pack from Porter Road Butcher could do the job.
I hope you all had a great short week! I don't know how I managed to be traveling or hosting every weekend in August, but I am looking forward to sleeping and getting my life together this weekend, starting with my closet {obviously}. TTYS
a note - #GalinasGiantFlop2018 was a nod to the most epic belly flop that Galina had last time we rented a boat a few years ago.
