12 Ladies Dancing

    I love the stage, as much as I love being on it myself I love seeing amazing singers, dancers and actors on stage even more.  There is something about the sparkly costumes, the false eyelashes, the wigs, the quick changes, the stage hands and the talent that feels magical.  Last night for a Christmas surprise Adam took me to the Radio City Rockettes Christmas Spectacular at the Grand Olde Opry, it was wonderful.  I am so impressed with their perfection, synchronization and stage presence, their legs that go on for miles and their wide warm smiles.  If I grew up a dancer I would for sure have dreamed of being a Rockette, heck, I am not a dancer and still dreaming of being a Rockette.  These lovely ladies have been toe tapping and high kicking since 1925, which is very impressive that still today that it is one of the most-watched live shows in the United States, with over 2 million viewers per year.  Anyone that has a chance to go out and catch this live, go see it, you wont be disappointed.

Home Sweet Home

Adam and I have been non stop traveling since we have been married and this week it is so nice to be home.  Don't get us wrong it has been wonderful seeing our family and friends along the way, but it sure is nice to sleep in our own bed.  Since we have been home we have gotten a chance to look at new homes for us to call our own.  House hunting is super fun but also stressful, confusing and a huge decision.  Right now we live in Franklin which was named in Southern Living's "Best Small Town" top ten list, Best Places to Live, CNN Money (August 2011), Top 5 Most Romantic Main Streets and Top 100 Places to Live, Relocate America (July 2011) .  So you can imagine how difficult it is to decide to move out of such a wonderful city, however Franklin being as amazing as it is houses in Franklin are very expensive and more of an investment Adam and I want to make right now.  We have been looking in a town 20 minutes south of Franklin called Spring Hill and have found a really nice house there.  Both Adam and I are still trying to decide if it is the right house and location for us and hopefully we can make a decision soon.  I'm usually the one to make a quick emotionally fueled decision and Adam is the calm, think about all the possibilities first decision maker so between the two of us I think we have the heart and the brain to make a good solid decision.  


Can you believe it is 2 weeks till Christmas!?!?!  Well actually it is 5 days for our Christmas with my parents and 12 days until our Christmas with Adams family.  It is so wonderful that we get to spend our first Christmas being married with our families even though they live far away from us.  Adam and I are truly blessed and thankful!
