Is it fall yet?


For the record I want everyone to know I have finally figured out this blogging thing.  I know I was new to it months ago, but I have finally figured out how to add backgrounds and pictures!  Wow... who thought it could be so tough.  I like to think of myself as technically savvy, but now with this!  Hopefully I can learn some more fun tricks as I continue to play with this!  

What a pretty last few days we have had.  The only thing I am confused about is... is it still  summer or is it fall?  I mean don't get me wrong, I love beautiful sunny days, but warm weather in the middle of October?   You have got to be kidding me!  I guess that is North Carolina for you!  You never know what you will get.  I guess I should be glad because even though I am so tired of wearing the same outfits over and over, I can still wear flip flops!  That makes me very happy!  I guess it is also a plus because though it may feel like summer we were still able to decorate for fall!  I just hope the weather will cool off so my poor little mums don't die!

Are you ready for some football?


This summer Preston and I made the decision to purchase two season tickets to the Carolina football games. For the last four seasons I have gone with Preston (who has been a season ticket holder for the past I don't know... umpteen years) and literally "bummed" a ticket off of a family friend. Well we both got kinda tired of that I thought that since we are now a self sufficient family of two we could afford to make the purchase. I am so glad we did!

Today is game #3 at home and we are really excited. We have made a new game plan for todays game and I hope it will be successful. In the past we have "tailgated" at a bar on Franklin street, but that doesn't seem to be going as planned as our parking is never guaranteed. Together with my brother in law (who goes with us to the games) we decided to start our own tailgate with a few of our friends from high school! I am mostly excited because I get to cook for my boys and show off our cute Carolina tailgate things we got as wedding gifts! :) I'll let you know how it pans out!

Here's to Tar Heel football and fun tailgating!
