The Barber's Virginia Adventures: Nashville trip and BYU Football game

October 30th we went to work for a half a day and I went to pick up Jason from work to go to the Reagan National Airport to fly to Nashville that night. We are excited to see old friends and be back in our old stomping grounds. The BYU football team is playing MTSU (which we graduated from there) so it should be a good game. Of course the weekend we came it decided to be freezing cold and have a freeze warning. We arrived and got a rental car and it was a cute blue Nissan. We stayed at the Sleep Inn in Murfreesboro, TN and it was nice.

Friday Halloween we went to visit with old professors of Jason's. It was nice to catch up and see the changes that MTSU campus has made. It was freezing cold that day and was sprinkling off and on. Friday evening we attended a fireside that the BYU football team put on at Central Middle school auditorium. It was a neat experience, we even made some of the pictures on the BYU facebook page which was funny. It was a nice night and neat to see how the football team is in person.

Saturday was game day. Lets go BYU. I have to admit we were a little torn but stayed true to BYU. It was another cold day. We got up and had lunch at White Castle burgers. It was so yummy. We missed them since we do not have one out here in Virginia. Some other person missed them to because he lives in Georgia and bought $126 worth of burgers to take back home. We got to campus early and went to the BYU tailgating party and froze a bit. It was fun to see all the BYU fans. At the game we saw our dear friends the Gilday's. It was fun to catch up at half time. BYU was winning and we were happy. It was a cold game to cheer at but we stayed till the end. It was alot fun. That evening we went to eat at a restaurant called Cheddars. It was so good.

Sunday we got up and checked out of the hotel and went to church with our old ward and caught up with a few people. That afternoon we drove up to Nashville and visited with Jason's old boss. It was nice to see everyone was doing well. We checked into our hotel in Nashville for the night and went to dinner with some old classmates of Jason's. Matt and Lauralee were so fun to catch up with. We went to a great Mexican restaurant, so good. It was fun for me to use my Spanish again. We filled up the car to get gas for the next morning since we had to leave for the airport at 4am. As we were coming back to the hotel, we got pulled over by the police. We got pulled over because the car lights were not on but the ones in the dashboard were on. It was a weird car.

Monday morning we headed to the airport and flew back home. It was a nice trip and the airplane was not full so we were able to have a row to ourselves. I sat by the window and Jason had the aisle. We held hands and had a great flight home. We were able to get our luggage fast and get to the car quickly. I dropped Jason off at work and went home to unpack, do laundry and go to my doctor appointment. I found out a few days prior to the trip that I was having surgery two days after we got home from vacation.
