Here are a few highlights of the last month or so around Nashville. A couple weeks ago we loaded up the car and headed to the beautiful beaches of South Carolina! Tim had a long weekend so we decided to spend one last summer hurrah out of town. And how convenient, the family of one of Tim's classmates owns a condo right on the beach!! Beautiful!
We spent lots of time relaxing on the patio overlooking the ocean and did some exploring of historic Charleston! We took a horse carriage tour through downtown and learned a lot about the area.
We have been celebrating the season with some fun activities: Oktoberfest, pumpkin carving and a costume party!
Octoberfest was a blast! They closed off about 5 square blocks of Germantown and the streets were lined with vendors. At several points along the walking route were stages with some great musical talent! We walked through the streets while drinking our massive beers and listening to great music. The beer, music, and food were all wonderful! Many of the proceeds of the event went to restoring some of the historical churches in the neighborhood.
Going to the Pumpkin patch is definitely one our favorite fall activities. It was great fun to see all the little kids (and big kids, like us) running around looking for the perfect pumpkin! We picked ours out and headed home for some carving!
Last night we went to a friends Halloween costume party! It was great to see all our friends all dressed up as fun characters! Here are our costumes:
Happy Halloween!
