Anyone from Tennesse

Forgive me as I posted this a while back and can't remember if any of you are from TN.
We are moving sometime at the end of the year. We'll be around the Chattanooga area.

I guess we all didn't get enough of talking about our kids -- here we are the forum . People are going to get the wrong idea about Nashville and think there's really nothing to do here on a Saturday night!

Glad to see so many from there. According to DH's uncle who lives in Nashville, we'll only be about an hour and a half from Nashville.

Kelly, we have a UT cheerleader outfit for Gabby but I don't think Mera is going to let her wear it on our trip home. Evidently it's not "cute" enough even though she's a fan.

How funny Rob! We have the problem of my husband being a huge Bama fan. His entire family is from there. My whole family is from TN and bleed orange. So our oldest son as an infant could be seen wearing a UT outfit, Bama bib, UT passy, and bama socks all at the same time! He actually came home from the hospital (he was born in Knoxville just a couple of minutes from Neyland Stadium) in the 2nd quarter of the UT v AL game that year. We thought that was such a cool thing, but since we have had to schedule every birthday party around Tennessee football or no one would show up!
