Tennessee

While visiting Venus and Rob in Dallas I mentioned that Steven and I wanted to plan a trip out to Nashville. Rob said he'd been and loved it and wanted to take Venus out there too. That conversation led to us planning a weekend couples trip! Everything came together quickly. We figured out a weekend that would work for everyone, booked an AirBn, and mapped out a few places we wanted to try! 

Steven and I both took Friday off and arrived early in the day. Our first stop was our AirBnB in Franklin, Tennessee. Throughout the entire drive from the airport to our AirBnB I just kept saying "Wow, it's so beautiful here!". It was so nice to see some fall foliage - especially when everything is still greenish in Houston! 

After dropping off our things at our adorable AirBnB, we called an Uber and headed to Downtown Franklin for Lunch at Puckett's Grocery and a little shopping! 

Downtown Franklin is so cute! It was truly a quaint area lined with tons of local shops, bars, and restaurants. We lazily walking down the street popping into every little shop that caught our attention. 

Saturday was our Nashville day! Venus and Rob arrived Friday night after Steven and I had already gone to sleep so it was nice to wake up and get to see them! We all got dressed and ready for a fun day of exploring. Our first stop of Biscuit Love in the Gulch. Our Uber driver warned us that Biscuit Love is very popular and we'd likely have a long wait time and he was right! We ended up waiting in line for about an hour but it was so worth it! Everything we ate was delicious! 

 After breakfast, we decided to walk over to the Country Music Hall of Fame. Honestly, I didn't know much about country music before our tour and I was so glad we went. Of course I had to get a pic of Taylor Swifts display because #TeamTayTay 

After the museum we were ready for some live music and drinks! We headed out to the ever so popular Broadway and spent time listening to a ton of great musicians at places like The George Jones, Ole Red, Tootsies, and Nudies. 

All of our friends who have been to Nashville told us we HAD TO get chicken at Hattie B's and they were RIGHT! It was the perfect ending to a wonderful day of exploring and a quick trip with the greatest friends!
