We have had a ridiculous amount of rain here over the past four days! It's ridiculous.
About a month ago we were asked by our neighbors to participate in a garage sale - we were PUMPED! Casey and Brad brought over a TRUCK load of stuff and we set it up in our garage on Friday night...while it was raining. Saturday morning we woke up to drizzly rain, but decided to persevere and make the yard sale work! We did surprisingly well - mainly due to the Sapps having so much stuff in our garage, it made it look like we had a LOT to choose from. We wrapped up the sale and took a great post-yard sale nap (aren't those THE best?!)

Saturday night we had big plans with the Parsons which started with a FABULOUSly cooked meal of shrimp and grits cooked by none other than Mr Parsons himself!! It was fantastic -and I learned a fun fact that the shrimp and grits thing is definitely a southern thing. My cousin's husband from Michigan has never heard of it nor has he ever had it...sad, but true.
After a wonderful dinner, we headed to Bongo Java Coffeehouse in the Belmont area in Nashville. This was by far the COOLEST coffeehouse I've been to. Seriously - very cool. They are a fair-traded coffeehouse, offering franchising opportunities worldwide. To add to their uniqueness, they have an upstairs theater where they host a variety of talented individuals. This weekend we were fortunate to hear several comedians, including many of the guys that Brent has gotten to know through his Zanie's experiences.
The headliner was Nate Bargatze who has been featured on Conan O'Brien. Check out this short video for a look into his FABULOUS humor! I loved it!


Needless to say we had an eventful weekend. Sorry there aren't any more fun pics, but believe me, it was great!
