Ice Cream

Josh and I ran into Cool Springs the other night to get some supplies to fix the noisy fans in our upstairs bathrooms. The fan in the kids bath doesn't work at all, and the fan in the Master bath sounds like a shrieking banshee fighting with a wounded seal before it finally decides to actually turn on. It is horrible.

After looking both at Lowe's and the Depot, we were unable to find new fans to fit, but were able to find one Josh could dismantle and re-figure to fix the  noisy fan.

On our way home, I decided that ice cream sounded good. (note*** this is unusual for me, Josh is the ice cream guy....)
Josh said, "sure, do you want to stop at Baskin Robbins or the store?"  Well, I had a hankering for something like a peanut buster parfait, so I voted Dairy Queen. Well, the closest ( and only) DQ was in Nashville, 20 minutes away from where we were. *sigh*

So we decided to go back home and get the kids and go to "Sweet Ce Ce's" frozen yogurt in Downtown Franklin.
I had heard this was the 'place to go', but I kind of poo poo'ed it thinking it is just another yogurt place, what's the big deal?! Well... it is well worth the trip- the yogurt was very tasty, with many fun flavors to choose from- blackberry pie, cupcake batter, chocolate malt, carrot cake, and 60+ other rotating gourmet flavors.

Well, we walked in, and were greeted by a number of people, not to mention there was a gentleman playing LIVE music-- and he was really good!
He was full of fun, and had all the kids engaged, teaching them how to beat box  ( boots and cats, boots and cats... really fast) and how to scratch ( say Eric really fast over and over again)

Much to our surprise ( these things still blow us away- getting used to being in the Bible belt ) He was openly talking about his relationship with Jesus Christ, and all of his songs were Christian songs! Rowan leaned over and said, "Um, Mom.. I think he might be a Christian...."

He is from Ohio originally, and waiting for his big break here in Nashville.
Check him out--

We were so thankful that the Lord had orchestrated this fun, spontaneous outing, on a Tuesday night-- what a blessing! He plays Tuesdays, Saturdays and Sundays- we will be back!
