The Infamous Starbucks

So, I'm pretty sure I've said it before, but my grandparents live in the boondocks. 

Literally.

They live on top of Lookout Mountain in a secluded area.

The only stoplight is 10 miles away and their nearest neighbor is probably 3 miles.

It's legit. 

Anyways, like I said friday, there are plenty of tourist attractions on the Tennessee side of the mountain (about 45 minutes away). We always laugh at this sign that's posted:

Yeah, you see that?

Starbucks is a tourist attraction.

It has it's own sign, for goodness sakes!

So, we can't be that much in the boondocks if there is a Starbucks, right?

So after we visited Rock City, we decided to hit up the infamous Starbucks.

Because, I mean, how could we miss it?!?!?!

Of course, we had to have our picture taken in front of it!

The boys ordered Mocha Cookie Crumble and Strawberries and Creme "Milkshakes" 

I think they thoroughly enjoyed them. 

Mocha Light Frapp for me :)

I love this picture. No not because of me, but of what's captured behind me.

Doesn't it look like Sweet Matthew is contemplating what he's reading in the New York Times?

;)

I'd say our trip to the Infamous Starbucks was a success. 

If We Were to Meet for Coffee (even though I don't drink it)

If we were to meet at Starbucks....

I'd order a Grande Skinny Vanilla Steamer

because they are the best...

I'd first tell you that I wasn't feeling too well,

 my regular migraines are making an appearance daily. 

I'd tell you that its due to lack of sleep, or not enough water,

but that is not true.

you see, Stress is the culprit. Caught red-handed.

I'd tell you I'm stressed because of school.

My mom wants me to take an online class during summer, and this scares me. 

I dont know why, because I know I can do it, 

but I'm dragging my feet on enrolling

If we were having coffee, I'd tell you how sick I am of having to live in a house that is on the market.

I'd complain about having to make my bed every morning, and to always clean up.

I'd laugh because I am upset about such small things. 

I'd feel guilty about complaining when I have such a blessed life.

I'd tell you about my summer,

how it's coming so soon.

I'd tell you that I am going to my grandparents for its entirety. 

I would grin from ear to ear because my best friend will visit. 

(we haven't seen each other in a year!)

I'd share my latest crafts, and ideas. I'd confess to how many hours I spend pinning. 

I'd ask you if you do the same. 

Lastly, I'd tell you that, while it may seem I am a mess, (most of the time I am), 

I know that God has a plan. 

and every day that passes, I know I am one step closer. 

If we were to meet for coffee, What would you tell me?
