Blessed by Friends!

I can't believe that I have not blogged about my two previous weekends! They were so much fun and a true blessing! I must admit that I have the best friends in the world. Even if I did not see you in the past two weeks I still think that I am very blessed by the friends God has provided!



Weekend #1: Nashville!!!
I had been telling Leslie that I would come visit for her for a while but I had never been able to follow through on my plans. I was finally able to skip town from Starkville and head north. This was my first experience in 24 years of life to not have a spring break (I did not like it too much). But I did get one day off from rotations and class. Sarah Marie was also able to drive up and spend the weekend with us! Friday afternoon was spent shopping (not that I had any money) in downtown Franklin. My theme was- when I get money I will buy this for my house. That night was spent cooking dinner and drinking wine and catching up on life. Saturday morning we enjoyed breakfast at the Pancake Pantry and then did some window shopping. That night some friends of Leslies from church had a Gumbo Fest. Those boys sure know how to cook some gumbo. I must marry a man that cook at least cook I decided (hahaha!). Sunday we enjoyed a brisk walk around the neighborhood and lunch with Julieann and Ansley. Then I had to drive the 5 hours back to Starkville. It was so hard to leave. But I left encouraged and looking forward to my next visit to Nashville and with Sarah Marie and Leslie!



Weekend #2: Mary Martha came to Starkville
I always love visitors and I dont get them that often. Because I am not sure what the future holds and if I will be in Starkville for only 7 more weeks or possibly the next couple of years Mary Martha decided that she needed to hurry and get here. We had the most chill weekend ever! I made dinner on Friday night and we enjoyed some Bops custard. Then Leanne took us on a campus tour and we had to listen to the fight song at the Chapel at 10pm. Leanne is such a RoadRunner! Saturday we slept in and then ate at my favorite little place, Little Building Cafe. To be physically active we took a walk around campus and I pointed out a few of my favorite study spots and buildings. That night we enjoyed some wine and sitting on the couch reading. I dont think that you can get more relaxed than we were. But it was so much fun having Mary Martha here!

I am excited because Auburn is coming to Starkville this weekend for baseball! I plan to be at all three games! War Eagle!!!
