Project 52 Date Nights - Wedding. PFunky Griddle. RiverWalk.

This weekend was another whirlwind of traveling - this time to Cedars of Lebanon {in middle Tennessee} for a cousin's wedding on Saturday. I believe that all married couples should attend at least one wedding each year, if for no other reason than as a reminder of why you got married. It was a sweet wedding and nice to catch up with family. 
  
We also managed to meet up with some friends {from this weekend wedding} on Sunday morning for breakfast at the Pfunky Griddle in Nashville. It was my friend's pick, so Daniel and I were unsure of what to expect. The restaurant had tables with griddles built into the middle and you get to make your own pancakes right there at the table. Pretty cool experience. It was nice to do with a group. This would make a fun "at home" date - just set up a griddle on the table and make your pancakes while you visit.

Sunday afternoon we headed to Chattanooga. Daniel took me to the town he works in {in Alabama} where I proceeded to have a moment of serious panic and culture shock. I really want to live in the same place as him. I am just having a hard time wrap my mind around moving to a rural area. I am hanging on to the possibility that we will live in Chattanooga, but if we end up moving to rural America... well, that will take some getting used to.

Monday, we spent the morning just hanging out. We looked at some potential neighborhoods and wondered downtown to the Riverwalk. We walked several miles - including across the Walnut Street Bridge {which spans 0.5 miles}. We had Sophie {as there were no signs posted regarding dogs}. We did find it odd that we didn't see any dogs. And when we reached Coolidge Park, we were informed that no dogs were permitted {oops}. Oh well. Sophie liked it and we didn't get into trouble. They really should post signs.

I drove back to Charlotte Monday afternoon/evening and made it home by 10:30PM. It was a good weekend, though exhausting. We are definitely ready to live in the same town again.

  1. When I read Chattanooga I have to add ChooChoo in my head - would find it very difficult to live there for that reason - fickle me? never!

    I love the idea of going to another couples wedding to remember the beginings of a marriage - may have to gatecrash someones. Sounds like you had a fun weekend xo
