#Cowboy Boots #NashvilleCats

If you would have told me 2 weeks ago I would be buying a pair of cowboy boots I would have said, “No way, no not ever. ”

Even when they were the craze up north I had no desire to own a pair.img_5965            However, that all changed when we visited Nashville, Tennessee.

Nashville is the capital of the U.S. state of Tennessee and the county seat of Davidson County.  Nashville is the home of the Grand Ole Opry House, home of the famous “Grand Ole Opry” stage and radio show. The Country Music Hall of Fame and Museum and historic Ryman Auditorium,  featuring honky-tonks with live music and the Johnny Cash Museum.

To sum it up Nashville is the home of  Country Western Music and Western Boots;  better known as cowboy boots.   So falling in love with cowboy boots was inevitable and it was easy to see why.  So many styles to choose from.

My friend wanted a pair of boots with BLING!  She found a pair with just enough BLING, and style. Brand – CORRAL

I, who didn’t want a pair of cowboy boots, ended up with a more  rough rider look.  Brand – OLD GRINGO.

Boy did we love our cowboy boots.  fullsizerender-59

Here we are in our western boots. Heading to the Grand Ole’ Opry.  We sure blended in with all the Nashville Cats and I cannot tell you how many people stopped us to say, “Where did you get those boots.”

 It wasn’t easy to find the right pair of western boots.

Till we stumbled upon:

French’s Shoes & Boots

And the rest is Nashville history.

Waitress Musical #sugarbutterflour

When I asked my niece Sandra if she would like to come with me to see Waitress,  she screamed Oh yes,  I love Sara Bareilles music. Seems she was wanting to see the musical for some time. She was so right, the show was absolutely wonderful. Really a little slice of heaven and definitely one of my favorite shows!

image

WAITRESS tells the story of Jenna, Jessie Mueller, what a beautiful voice.  an expert pie maker in a small town, who dreams of a way out of her loveless marriage. A baking contest in a nearby county and the town’s new doctor ,Drew Gehling, who sounded to me like a mix of James Taylor and Kenny Loggins, very dreamy,  may offer her a chance at a new life, while her fellow waitresses,Jenna Ushkowitz and Keala Settle, offer their own recipes to happiness. But Jenna must find the courage and strength within herself to rebuild her life. This new American musical celebrates friendship, motherhood, and the magic of a well-made pie.

image

Based upon the 2007 motion picture written by Adrienne Shelly, Waitress is the first Broadway musical in history to have four women in the four top creative team spots, with a book by Jessie Nelson, a score by five-time Grammy Award-nominated singer-songwriter Sara Bareilles, choreography by Lorin Latarro and direction by Tony Award-winner Diane Paulus.

The music and songs are wonderful, the story had us laughing and crying and laughing again.  The cherry on top was meeting our friends and having them sit right behind us. Love when that happens.
