WHAT A GAME!

My beloved Clemson Tigers nearly gave me a heart attack last week, but in true Tiger fashion they made the game very eventful and WON to clinch the ACC Atlantic Champions Title! Woohoo!


Leave it to Clemson to win on a last second field goal...


But I got to see these lovely ladies! We missed you Jacqueline!


And let the celebration begin!


There are no words to express my happiness at this moment...


Looking forward to Charlotte on Dec. 3rd! It's going to be a tough game, where we will need to play our best, but I'm hoping I will be celebrating again and reporting that we are ACC Champions....



Lawn and Garden Shower

A few weekends ago we had some sweet friends and family give us a wonderful lawn and garden shower. It was perfect! The food was delicious, the company was fun, and the decor was too cute!


It's still a little weird seeing our new monogram, but exciting also!










Amy made the trip!



Our wonderful hostesses!




Sadly, I didn't take many pictures. I'm finding it's hard to take as many pictures as I would like when the party is for us. Regardless, we had a fabulous night! Thanks Brad, Madison, Seth, and Heather for thinking of us!



Fall Treat

With a little inspiration from Pinterest, I made a little treat for my parent volunteers and third grade team a few weeks ago.

I did sneak a taste, and it was quite yummy!

A bad case of the Mondays...

Normally I don't mind Mondays, in fact I normally feel very productive on Mondays. It's a time to start fresh, have a plan or list that hasn't been altered yet, and feel rejuvenated. Well, today that was just not the case.

I didn't sleep well because I woke up in the middle of the night with a horrible sore throat. It seriously felt like a ping pong ball was stuck in there. Then, I somehow managed to forget to wash my hair in the shower and didn't notice until after I dried it. But I knew I had to make the best of it because 22 smiling faces were going to be in my care very soon. So, I put on a positive attitude, rockin' the ponytail, and made it to school. I honestly was having an okay day until about 10:30 and then my world around me collapsed. Okay, maybe I'm being a little dramatic, but the day just kept getting worse. It didn't all happen at once. Just little things throughout the day kept happening. And to top it off I spent two hours at the CVS Minute Clinic waiting to see if my self diagnosis of strep throat was correct. Boy do I know my body...it wasn't totally strep, but she got a faint line on the strep test so I think had I waited it would have been full blown strep. Honestly I was kinda glad because after my time there I wanted to make my trip worth the while.



So with some medicine in me and some sleep tonight, I'm hoping my week will improve. Attitude is everything right?

Let the Wedding Festivities Begin...

Better late than never, right? Too much fun not to share.




A few weeks ago my parents dear friends gave us our first shower/party. From the company to the food to the decore, it was absolutly PERFECT! They were all so sweet to think of us and do something so wonderful for me and Josh. It was wonderful to get to see all our family and friends and kick off the celebration! So, in no particular order I will let the pictures do the talking.
Brooks totally surprised me and made it into town for the party!!



















It all started with Mrs. Heady on the far left who set us up.
























































What a wonderful way to start off the wedding festivities!
