This past weekend went from bad to great! The Vols played the Gators (our long-time rival) Saturday afternoon in Gainesville, Florida. We lost and it was a very disappointing game :(
We decided not to dwell on the loss and went over to our friends Becca & Will's house that night for ice-cream and hanging up. It was great! They put Brayden, their sweet son, to bed right as we were getting there and we were able to enjoy a whole evening of eating ice-cream, watching more football, and chatting late into the night. I am so thankful for the sweet friends we are making and becoming closer to as the weeks go by!
Sunday afternoon I talked Alan into letting us take the boat out. We are going to be out-of-town the next 2 weekends and I'm not quite sure how many more warm days we will have left... so we did and it was wonderful. Some of our best conversations are while we are on the lake... I think it's because Alan is so content he is willing to talk about anything! We were able to discuss quite a lot about life in Knoxville since our move (which we are loving!) and also our trip to Saint Louis this coming weekend (which I am so excited about I can hardly stand it!)
Lastly, I will say that I'm not a music buff by any stretch; however, I would like to highly recommend the album Magnolia EP by Ellie Holcomb. Ellie went to college with me and is SO TALENTED!!! Acoustic guitar... songs based on the Psalms... it doesn't get much better than that! Ellie has been touring with her husband, Drew Holcomb and the Neighbors, (also awesome!) and just recently came out with her own album...which I love! Please check it out! Plus, if you "like" her on Facebook or tweet about her...you get a free download!
