Birthday!

Happy Birthday to me today!

although I am sitting at my desk this morning :(

We had a great weekend in Columbia!

Sure am glad I pretended to be a Gamecock fan!



back to work and my pumpkin spice latte.

Thursday Randoms

Thank goodness it is Thursday.

This will be my last random post of the week --

headed to Columbia for a work conference tomorrow morning.

and then...

staying for the weekend!!!

bestie Paige lives in Cola town

and she has graciously gifted us with tickets

to the biggest game of the year.

#5 University of Georgia

vs.

#6 University of South Carolina

I could not be more excited!!!!

You see, I was raised to bark and yell sic 'em.

I have always been a Georgia fan

but since meeting Coleman

things have gotten a little complicated. 

That man bleeds garnet and black

a "gamechicken" through and through. 

So, of course I love Carolina too and I root for them both equally

but there comes one day a year when they play each other 

in the South Carolina/Georgia Border Battle. 

and we get to go!!!! 

big deal for us. 

I will be wearing garnet and black 

to please my future husband 

and our gracious weekend hosts. 

Paige's daddy would probably die if he saw any red at his tailgate. 

and I guess...

I will just be cheering the whole game through, 

whenever anyone does anything?

We will see how this goes.

so in the meantime, 

go SEC?

Have a great weekend y'all!

p.s.- Save the Dates are arriving in peoples' mailboxes as we speak!

p.p.s- my birthday is Monday!

 Yesterday,

Coleman's actual day of birth, I accompanied him to the Dove Field.

I really like to go just to take pictures.

and to spend time with my main man in his favorite environment on his birthday!

 How cute are they???

Proud birthday boy with his dog and their dove limit.

I think Coleman put it best himself.

"I had a pretty good birthday. Carolina won. Clemson lost. And I shot a limit of doves."

Sounds like a pretty great weekend.

Happy Monday, y'all.

TGIF

I am so happy the weekend is here:

a weekend full of my favorite guy, Coleman.

We have marriage counseling tonight and tomorrow morning until after lunch.

Although I must say, I am very nervous,

I will be happy to be getting this done.

And, I am sure it will do great things for us!

Coleman's birthday is Sunday!

We will be celebrating with friends and family at our house tomorrow afternoon.

Carolina has a big match-up this weekend vs. Missouri,

so I have decided to host a birthday cookout watch party for my main man.

The dude with our sweet pups.

Hamburgers,

Those of you who know me welll

know that I LOVE birthdays,

and C's is at the top of my list.

I love having a special reason to shower him with attention all week weekend long!

Hope y'all have a great one!
