Move in Weekend

In the airport trying to get a car big enough for our bags!

Jim and I took Grace to Belmont to move in and made a sightseeing trip out of it.  We arrived on Thursday nite and immediately went to Hattie B's for dinner!  Then we took a tour of the campus as it was the first time Jim had been there!   Then we took a drive down Honky Tonk row!

G's new earrings - "the path of life"

The next morning we toured Centennial Park and the Parthenon before we headed out to Biscuit Love for breakfast.  Then we shopped at Target.  Once shopping was done we went back to the hotel to rest up for the Grand Ole Opry that night.  As usual the Opry did not disappoint - it was a great show!

Belmont tour

 When we took Jim on the Belmont tour, we ran into this set up near the basketball stadium - so we decided to pose for pics!  No one was around so we had to set up the camera on a timer.

Biscuit with pineapple, pecans and cream cheese frosting - OMG!

What the heck!

Biscuit Love breakfast

After all our touring and shopping, it was move in day.  Move in was amazing!  We drove up and it was like locust stormed the car and emptied it of all our belongings.  Next thing we knew, we were in G's room and all her stuff was already there!

Her roommate, Addie, had just arrived and was waiting for us to help sort out where they wanted everything!

We spent about 2 hours setting them up and they ended up with an excellent set up!

This is us driving up to her dorm

I love this green sign

Once we were all moved in, there was a welcome session that was so impressive and was so welcoming for the students and the families.   It really made me feel good about her being there.  I think its a great fit!
