LB & I packed up our dirty clothes and headed home college style to Knoxville for her hometown baby shower and some R&R before "Nugget" arrives. Needless to say she scored big time at the
shower.
"Nugget" doesn't need anything until at least 6mths to 1T (whatever that means...lol)
We ate great food, I finished my book much to LB's delight. Apparently I'm funny even while reading. The 3pm nap became the standard afternoon reboot and we were spoiled rotten by friends and family. I really can't say enough about Camp Wells it is the premiere resort location in Eastern Tennessee. A small blue dot heaven in the middle of a red state.
We had breakfast at Cracker Barrel right before we left when we spied an electric car recharge station. Really? At the Cracker Barrel who knew? Some townies approached with great caution, "what the hell is that? is it part of the Obama-Care? Careful it'll suck out your life force." Hahahah!
LB was quite the star! She recorded a podcast, was interview by the UT Magazine and "auditioned" for the head of the theater department. One day on our way back to the homestead from the UT Campus we noticed this bit of graffiti. Baby Nugget already has a following!!
All in all we had a blast, and I now have 7 new friends on Facebook because I killed at the baby shower. Those ladies were Steel Magnolias on steroids and laughed like I had showed them the special road to joy. Truly a great feeling. A beautiful way to close the life before baby era!
