Piglet’s Deep and Purposeful Thoughts











{August 6, 2007}   Getting Settled!

Hi Ladies!

Well…it’s August and we have almost been here two months! Can you believe it!?! I sure can’t…time flies…whether you are having fun or not! To date we have done many exciting and new things here in Franklin, TN! I’ll give you some details…this past weekend we went to the Williamson County Fair…a small town old time fair! Carnival rides, the animal section and all of the fair goodies…the boys won prizes in the carni section…a panda for Brendan and a dalmation for my firefighter Logan! They are getting so big! We saw so many tractors and all of the vegetables, jams, etc. that won first prize were out…along with some vendors selling beautiful homemade goods…it was really cool! We have also been to the Nashville Zoo…it’s just a great zoo…lots of fun for the boys and for me too…it was so nice we bought a family pass so we can go a bunch! We have found a really nice park…Pinkerton Park…we love to go there…when it’s not so humid! There are lots of swings and other play equipment and the boys just love playing around! Not many people there, I guess everyone plays at home in their huge backyards! We know where Costco, Target, Wild Oats, and TJ Maxx are so we’re doing good in that area! I have been to the Mall, but I’m not much of a shopper anymore! I still need to find some more stores for the boys…we are growing like weeds and wearing out our clothes like crazy! We have a new favorite hamburger place…Steak N Shake…don’t laugh it’s really good! (Ann will attest to that! HA!) And we have found the best New York pizza place out here…real italians from Brooklyn, NY and they make AWESOME pizza…and I’m not kidding…I don’t kid about pizza! I’ve also found Michaels and Old Navy which is great too! There are some great antique stores out here too…and they have great old (really antique items) at great prices! It’s been kinda fun checking things out and finding out what’s new and where to find things! We found a great coffee place in downtown Franklin called Merridees! They make an awesome mocha…blows Starbucks away! And then there is the Puffy Muffin…a bakery that is just awesome! Best muffins I’ve ever had! There is an adorable post office…nice friendly people behind the counter and we found the library…it’s brand new and so awesome!

As for the house…well I have a ton of room, almost too much room…I’ve never had a house this big and after seeing our moving truck all I can tell you is I never want to fill this house…we have so much stuff…sometimes I just want to throw it all away! Yikes!

I know…I still need to post pictures of it all and I will I promise…hopefully before we move back! Ha!

My love to you all!

Donna
