Carolina/Clemson Day!

On Saturday November 27...the CAROLINA GAMECOCKS took on the clemsux tigers. *hehe* Anyways...I don't do Clemson. In other words...I hate going up there. Yes, more than likely it is b/c I have BAD memories of them beating us more often than not up there...and let's be honest who really likes all that damn orange. Yuck. Seriously though...Clemson does have a beautiful campus, but if you don't know anyone that lives there it is hard to go up for a game unless you drive home that same night...there aren't a whole ton of hotels. With this being a night game, it just didn't seem feasible to make the trip to Clemson, which it never really does anymore...we always find some place to throw a big party now when we play AT Clemson. It is just SO much easier. This year, our wonderful friends Jennifer and Jeb, invited us to Jeb's cabin at Lake Wateree. We had 17 people crammed in, *not ONE Clemson fan might I add, which is rare in this small state.* We had an absolute friggin blast. It was perfect, and it sure didn't hurt that Carolina whipped up on them Tigers this year, making it TWO times in a row now! Yay!

We all headed up there early afternoon to begin our day of football. It was the perfect amount of time for all of us girls to get all of our gabbing in before the BIG game started. We had food galore, and Jennifer cooked us some amazing chili for dinner. It really was a wonderful way to end the Thanksgiving holiday weekend.

The lake at sunset was so pretty!

Game time!

Boys, it was freezing!

ALL the girls, go cocks!

Jamie (far left) looks like he is trying to hug it out with Mikey, ha. *PS... all those orange cups, survivor flip cup!!! Girls won! Holla!

...and his shirt said "Forget the rock, rub the cock." Highly inappropriate? Yes. Wildly hilarious? Yes. (Clemson rubs "howards rock" a rock before they run down the hill every game.) **Mikey did NOT purchase this shirt, it was given to him!

Such a fun night of celebrating my GAMECOCKS with my favorite people!

What's in a name?

I tell ya, the name game is HARD. Really hard. I never thought that I'd be 27 years old and pregnant and not know what I wanted to name my child. I *think* we have come up with the one , but I'm not quite ready to put it out for the world to see...you know, don't want to many people rushing to get monogrammed bubbles. Ha! Jokes! Anyways...so I can look back and remember what all we went thru to come up with a name in 20 years I am going to lay it all out there. I'll start with saying I want a family name to be somewhere in my children's names. It doesn't have to be a first name, but some name in the child's name I want to be from a family member/family. We'll start with boys names, because they got taken off the table when we found out it was a GIRL..this will be short. Mikey's middle name is Thomas...his grandfather's name is Thomas. So...we always said Thomas would be in our son's name. I always thought it would be cool to do a Tho...

Takeover Tuesday

Surprise Caro, guess who hacked into your blog! I know what you are saying to yourself...I can’t believe it’s taken this long for me to mess with you on here. For those of you who haven’t figured it out yet, this obviously is not your sweet Caroline, this is her wonderful, sarcastic, fun loving, baby daddy (or is it babies’ daddy now?), also known as her husband. (Caro at her finest, throwing me a great 25th birthday celebration) Where do I begin…. I guess we can talk about how this marital bliss came to be before we talk about the author of this blog and how amazing she. Caroline has been the love of my life for as long as I can remember, we were actually first grade boyfriend and girlfriend if you can believe it. After first grade, there was the great divide, as both of us went to different schools the following year. Finally, after 10 agonizing, lonely years we were reunited at a house party our senior year in high school. I, naturally, had always kept an eye on her throughou...

25 weeks....yesterday!

Holy moly!!!! Baby Girl is doing some maaaayjah GROWING:) How far along? 25 weeks. Size of the baby? 13.5 inches and a pound and a half, grow baby girl, grow! Also known as an “average rutabaga”…um, okay. I’ll take Baby Center’s word for it. Maternity Clothes? Same as last week. My wardrobe is shrinking! I have bought several maternity tops, but most of them still look way too big. Still haven’t made the transition to maternity pants even though the bella band aggravates me sometimes. It’s the worst with my work pants, it constantly rolls down. I need to just suck it up and make the switch. Stretch Marks? None have appeared yet, still using the Palmer’s and Bio Oil a few times a week. Movement? Same. It’s so crazy how hard my belly gets at night, it is like she is all knotted up in one place. And the BELLY gets insanely BIG at night! Sleep? Eh…it’s been okay lately. I toss and turn a bunch. Food Cravings? Nothing crazy yet. I have been eating lots of peanu...

Sweet Caroline
