What a WEEK!!

So I picked up and left Kate and Steve for a week and headed to Nashville, Tennessee! What a fun and busy week to be there with the Crown Council! Such a rewarding week with all the events that took place. As you can see that is Garth BROOKS, pretty cool that I have a picture with him!! There was a private concert at the end of the week at The Grand Ole Opry. It was so cool to be there where so many famous people have been. And if you know me at all I am kind of a country music freak! I love it!





This was another night with a bunch of different singers like Dierks Bentley, Ronnie Dunn and Jessica Andrews!
Friday night was the awards night for all the Dentists and there teams. This night the African Childrens Choir sang and it was the best. Really emotional!

Annie, Rachel, Allyson, Dru and Me
The Crew missing Rach and Austin....
Good old Ronnie Dunn from Brooks and Dunn


The African Childrens choir eating dinner before they went on stage. It was such a privilege to meet all of them and hear about there background. They are between the age of 7 and 11 and all of them have lost one or both of there parents to poverty or Aids. It is so sad. They were so polite and thankful to be here in America.

All the kids and ME
The music director. She was so Beautiful.

By the way Kate did great! My mom came down and watched her and Steve was also here. She was really excited to see me and there has been no hard feeling thank goodness. I was sad to leave her but what a great break!! I missed you too STEVE!! So much it is good to be back!
