Nashville Day 3

We decided we needed to see SOMETHING besides the inside of bar so we walked near Music Row.

Then we happen to find ourselves back in another restaurant/bar....The singer from Tootsies the day before was playing at this place and remembered us!

Our friend Kruse was able to drive up from where he was working in Georgia to meet us for the night. He had met us in Chicago when we saw AC/DC and we have been talking about meeting up with him again and this worked out!

We got a tip from a friend who had been in Nashville last month to go to Bailey's to watch the Iowa game...and she wasn't kidding. They have reserved seating for Hawkeye fans, they do the I-O-W-A chant after they score and they had a raffle for different things. It was really cool!! And a lot of fun when your team wins and they weren't expected to!

We hadn't planned on really watching the whole game....but we did and it was worth it! After the game we went to more places, the view from the rooftops were awesome and the weather was perfect!

One of Steve's bosses daughters (did ya get that?) just moved to Nashville about 6 months ago, we had met her once before at a wedding this summer and exchanged contact info. We got a hold of her and she met us out for the Iowa game and then ended up hanging out all night with us! Meghan was fun and I'm glad we got to hang out with her and get to know her better!

Somehow we ended up at some bar dancing...and dancing and dancing. Meeting some new people and rocking out!

My hair only came down and out of my pony b/c I insisted that Kruse let me put his hair in a man-bun! It was a little short for a bun and he was not impressed with my need to 'do' his hair! 

We actually didn't stay out too late. We were somewhat responsible adults!! We did gain an hour of sleep with daylight savings time but we did have to get up about 7:30 and head to the airport. It was  great trip and we will definitely be going back! We were exhausted and ready to get home to our babies. Our flight left at 10:10 and we were at my parents house by 1:45! Short and sweet travel time!

My tips from this trip:

Fly Southwest...totally worth it. It was a 50 min flight to St Louis and a 50 min flight to Nashville!

Airbnb....don't count them out! So much cheaper than hotels!

Nashville....if you like live music, go! We loved this city and didn't see half of it!
