Nashvegas: Happy Birthday Auntie Shana!!

This weekend we travelled south to Nashville for a weekend celebrating Auntie Shana's 35th Birthday. We had such a good time - Lyla loves hanging out with the girls. She pushed herself to new limits all weekend - not wanting to stop for naps or much sleeping - she didn't want to miss a thing.

The weekend started with hanging out at Aunt Shana's and Uncle Robbie's. We loved checking out their new patio and garden and enjoyed dancing to a little Michael Jackson in Shana's living room:




















On Saturday afternoon, we went to the Frist Center for the Visual Arts for the Golden Age of Couture exhibit. After lunch, we had a great time looking through the exhibit, although Lyla Q. slept for most of it in her stroller.
































On Saturday night, we had dinner at Rosepepper's in Shana's & Robbie's neighborhood. We had a great dinner and at Aunt Shana's request (actually, demand would probably be a more descriptive word), no one sang Happy Birthday in public.






































After dinner, we had Betty Boop birthday cake compliments of a fabulous pastry chef Mandy has befriended. We all enjoyed Mandy's account of the great deal got on the cake - I only wish I could post video of it on our blog. :)




































































This morning, we had a fabulous (and I mean FABULOUS) breakfast at Monell's. We loved the family style breakfast and there was absolutely no breakfast food this place didn't serve. It was heaven!! We were also able to meet up with my friend Jonna, who has a baby of her own coming in February! :)


















We had a great weekend and feel so blessed to have such wonderful family surrounding us. Happy Birthday, Aunt Shana! We love you!!
