28-27 Baby!!!! WDE!!!!!

It's Great To Be An Auburn Tiger!!!!!!!

Yesterday was Iron Bowl 2010 in Tuscaloosa. Neither Rod or I had ever been to an Iron Bowl in Tuscaloosa so it was definitely a new experience for both of us. But I am extremely happy to report that at least our first trip there will always be memorable. This will definitely be a game that goes in the history books!!! After a lack luster start to the game (at least from the AU bench) we thought......"oh my, what have we gotten ourselves into. This is going to be, for lack of better words, HELL for the next few hours.

But our AUBURN TIGERS did NOT disappoint!!!!!!

I swear to you, the sky ALL DAY was grey and overcast with little drizzles everywhere. But when the 3rd quarter started and Auburn scored their 2nd touchdown of the game, this is what we looked up and saw. That beautiful Orange and Blue sky.........I guess to quote our Quarterback, " The Lord was blessin' today!" It truly gave us all chills.

Post game shot!!! I would have gotten a picture of the scoreboard but I swear to you they shut that thing off IMMEDIATELY after the time ticked off! HAHAHAHAHA!!! Kind of funny actually! Whatever, we know the final score!

28-27!!!!!
War Damn Eagle!!!!!!
See ya in Arizona!!!!
But first we will stop off in Atlanta ;)

Happy Thanksgiving Ya'll!!!!!

I hope this post finds all of you happy with tummies full on this Thanksgiving Day!! What a beautiful day it was here in Auburn. We spent the majority of our day at my mom and dad's house gorging ourselves with the annual Thanksgiving feast. YUMMO!!!!! Nothing is better than my mom and aunt's dressing ( a recipe they got from their mom, aka. Mimi). It is something I look forward to every year. I just wanted to share with you some of my many blessings.........................

My older brother, Brad and my sweet husband, Rod.

My two handsome boys and one of my sweet nieces!

A fabo sister-in-law that I also call one of my "best"friends.

A daddy (aka, Papa) that I love oh so much.
Have I ever mentioned how much of a daddy's girl I am????

A wonderful aunt (aka, Nettie) and loving mother (aka, Nina)
Can you tell they are sisters????


And don't forget this munchkin!!!! Baby Bradley (aka, BB or Beebs), another one of my nieces.

We missed my other cousins and their children this year but what a blessing they are to me as well!

HAPPY THANKSGIVING YA'LL!!!!!!

Thankful..............

For wonderful schools with wonderful teachers!!!!! This past week both boys had Thanksgiving events planned. Nathan's 1st grade class did a Thanksgiving play. It was super cute and the kids did a great job. Nathan had a "major" speaking role where he told about the Mayflower and the journey the pilgrims went through.

Nina even dropped by as a surprise.

Wilson's sweet school had their annual Thanksgiving feast. The kids got to enjoy some of the traditional Thanksgiving yummys. Turkey (aka. chick-fil-a nuggets), green beans, corn on the cob, potatoes and pumpkin bread.

Sweet Cousins!

Me and my turkey!!!!

Wishing all of you a wonderful Thanksgiving. And oh yeah...................................................WAR DAMN EAGLE!!!!!!

Seeing Green

I would like to introduce you to the newest GREEN belt Karate Kid. Congratulations Nathan, we are oh so proud of you!!!!

Nathan and Matthew worked hard to get here!

Nate and Master Patrick

Oh yeah, this is what you have to do if you forget to say "YES SIR" --- I might start trying this at home with our yes mams ;0)

A Star Wars Kind of Halloween!!!!!

Happy Halloween Everyone!!!! I hope your spooky, fun filled evening was as great as ours was. After watching almost all of the Star Wars movies post surgeries this past year, Nathan was dying to dress up as Darth Vader.....so what better to dress Wilson as than Yoda!!!! :) I thought they ended up looking pretty cute myself.

Of course the night is always a bit chaotic....trying to get every one dressed, visiting all the aunts & uncles, cousins, and grandparents, and fitting in a "nutritious" dinner before all the candy consumption. All of this to be done BEFORE actual trick-or-treating gets started. Whew....I'm just tired remembering all of it.

All the cousins!!! Little Bo-Peep & her sheep (Stirling and Bradley), Yoda and Darth Vader (my boys) and Tom & Jerry (Sara and Megan). How cute are they?!?!?!?!?
Quick family pic before the fun begins!

And just because I know you all need a good laugh, here is a picture of Rod and I before the annual adult Halloween party that some couples here in Auburn host every year. If you know anything about the reality TV show Jersey Shore then you will appreciate this. Drum Roll please.....................................................................................................................................introducing Snookie and Pauly D!!!!!

I love Halloween but I LOVE to see it go even more!!!! It's just one of those holidays that exhausts me. :) Now bring on the Turkey and Dressing!!!!!!
