Life Recap

I haven't really posted much lately. I figured my little peck of readers might enjoy reading what's going on in my life these days.

First and foremost.... how about them Gamecocks?! In case you didn't know, my Carolina Gamecocks rolled right over the #1 ranked. Alabama Tide. I ventured to Columbia this past weekend to be with Brian for his birthday (It was the 6th, but we celebrated this weekend.). I luckily got a ticket to the game. We tailgated on Saturday of course, making our usual 'rounds to see all of our friends. We headed into the game and that was it! I've never seen Williams Brice so loud or so packed. It was something I had never witnessed in all of my 4 years at Carolina. Of course we were sitting in the student section; it's one of the best ways to experience a Carolina ball game. We cheered and screamed and danced our hearts out to a 35-21 win over 'Bama. Gamecock nation couldn't have been more proud! And not to mention, we are now ranked #10 overall & #1 in the SEC East. Excuse me for bragging a little bit, but I am one proud girl! Not to mention that Florida lost and so did Clemson. I don't like either one. But that's neither here nor there.

Sunday I trekked back to Charleston to make in time for a cookout at my boss' house. My whole department and the 2 deputy office managers were there. We ate and talked and had a good time. I was tired after such a long weekend so I headed home to crash afterwards.

Tomorrow marks my 3 months with MSC! YAHOOOOO! Tomorrow also marks the start of my. very. own. health insurance. Yes, I am EXCITED about HEALTH INSURANCE. I've always been covered under my mom; however having my own makes it so much cooler in my eyes. I'm growing up...errr...uhh?! It has its goods and bads.

Anyways, I will be headed out to Wild Dunes for the weekend to stay with Brian and his family this weekend. They always make a trip to the beach around Brian's birthday because he loves to fish and shrimp and now really is the perfect time. I'm excited. I'm an outdoors girl and love fishing. I get a bit competitive with Brian. Oops! :)

I hope y'all had a wonderful weekend and good start to the week.


P.S. Please pray for my friend. She goes to find out the sex of her baby a week from today. We are so very excited for her and her hubby and the bundle of joy that God has decided to bless them with. She is the first of our friends to be pregnant, and I couldn't be more tickled!

F.A.L.L.

Fall is here! Thank goodness. The temperature here has dropped dramatically. The mornings are cooler and the afternoons in the low 70's. That's what I'm talking about! Today I actually broke out my fall boots, tights, and cute lightweight scarf to wear to work. It was so nice. When I think of fall I think of many of my favorite things.

1. Pumpkins
2. Changing leaves
3. Scarves
4. Fall clothes (duh!)
5. Oyster roasts
6. Fires
7. Duck boots
8. Football season [SEC all the way ;)]
9. Dark nail polishes (...think plum, garnet, brown, etc)
10. Chili & cornbread
11. Boots

What are some of y'alls favorite Fall things?
