Rob and I took a "mini-vacay" to Knoxville, TN this past weekend. It was a very short trip, but well worth it. Despite my best intentions, I did not take a single picture the entire weekend. Rats. We left on Friday afternoon and once we arrived in Knoxville, we stopped by the law firm where we used to work. It was great seeing some old friends (and employers, but I consider them friends too) for a little while. After our brief visit in the office, we checked into our hotel downtown and got ready for dinner. We dined at Naples the Italian restaurant where Rob proposed over four years ago. The restaurant has not changed one bit - thank goodness. I like it the way it is.
Later, we drove around UT's campus and the adorable neighborhood where I rented a condo while I was in school. It was so much fun seeing everything again. Even though we have been back to Knoxville since we've been married, this was the first time I really looked around and focused on how much I enjoyed that time in my life. On Saturday, we browsed the farmer's market and did a little shopping in Market Square. Later, we went by my parents' house to spend a few, short hours with them. Sunday included breakfast outside in Market Square and another quick drive through part of town before heading back to Nashville.
I didn't take any pictures of this weekend, but I thought I would post a picture of us from my college graduation day which took place in Knoxville over four years ago ...pre-wedding, pre-mortgage, pre-careers, pre-baby... you know, pre-responsibility!

Sounds like a neat & nostalgic weekend! :) I was reading what you're thankful for this week, and I laughed out loud at the olives! While I was pregnant, I ate olives on nearly EVERYTHING!!! And even more often on nothing! Olives with green bell peppers coming in a close second! :)
