so, I performed on the stage of the grand ole opry.

so fellows, this past month has been an oblivion of frantic yet beautiful new experiences.

on the 12th of july  my violin and i took a flight to Nashville, Tennessee, where I attended the 10th anniversary of the Fine Arts Summer Academy.

and there, we performed on the stage of the Grand Ole Opry.

(true story.)

I explored the backstage dressing rooms and corridors of legend, and was generally in awe of the glamour of it all. the life of a musician is far from glitzy, but we occasionally get to experience the most exciting things, you know.

so after an exhausting yet rewarding two weeks spent in rehearsals, lessons, and practice sessions, I’ve traveled up to North Carolina with some of my dearest friends for some time off.

yay for time off.

hails, emmers, your truly, and taylee. we rock the hats.

le cute bakery and coffee shop is cute.

dress // target
vest // thrifted
belt // i have no idea
boots // dillards

as a Texan, my love of evergreens and tall trees will forever be in my heart.

(gorgeous girl.)

so that’s what I’ve been up to, and that’s what’s going on. what’s new with you?

(ps- its august tomorrow. we’ve broken out the christmas music.)

yours always,

-katy
