So I know my last 2 posts were slightly out-of-order in the "catching-up" story of my life, but please forgive me. I want to share what life in Italy has been for me since I arrived on October 20th and since Joey returned on November 22nd, so I will post pictures in the following post. Before I start the pictures of life in Italy I want to share some pictures of the weeks before I left Birmingham.
At the end of August I went to Nashville to celebrate my roommate from college, "sister," and one of my 2 very best friends' birthdays...Annelise! (I call her Anny) Several of her Nashville friends, her boyfriend Brian, Melissa, and I all had a super fun dinner on Saturday night and then danced the night away in a reserved room at a pretty interesting club. It was a lot of fun! On Sunday after lounging the day away we indulged by going to eat our most favorite & worst enemy food: mexican. Ha! Then we went to the Bridgestone Arena to see Ray LaMontagne & David Gray in concert. It was my present to Anny, but who am I kidding it was also a present for me! We both LOVE Ray and David, and we have been listening to them since day 1 of college! It was an amazing show with incredible tickets!! Another bonus to the awesome weekend was getting to see one of my closest friends and most favorite people, the lovely Sarah. I am so blessed to have amazing friends! Here are a few pictures from this weekend!
A few weeks before I was to move to Italy my wonderful GROUP of best friend's from college threw me a going away party at the lovely Elise's house. I have never felt so loved. Almost every single one of the women I cherish came into town to spend time with me. It was so much fun!
Having my girls all come together to see me was so special, and it was topped off by the fact that Casey flew into Birmingham to spend 2 nights with my family and attend an art show the weekend before I left. I miss everyone so much and can't wait to see everyone again soon! I will end this post with some pictures of the art show, my last night at home, and some hugs from my sweet nieces. Ciao!
