Mirror

Friday evening, Jude, John Patrick and I packed up and headed to Mirror on 12th Avenue, in our neighborhood, for dinner. We arrived relatively early, which was nice, because John Patrick was able to walk around the restaurant without disturbing anyone. He was excited to see Stephanie, who bartends at Mirror. He has excellent taste in bartenders even at a young age, because she's probably the best bartender in Nashville. We sat close to the bar, so he could wave to her and watch her work.

Jude's parents were on the way into town from Knoxville and they were able to join us for dinner. While they ate, John Patrick insisted on walking up and down the stairs leading out to the patio seating area. He did great and it was fun to have him out and about. On the way home, we stopped by Hal and Kim's house. They were having people over and we visited for a few minutes, spending most of our time admiring their amazing back yard.
