Football, Football, and Bear!

As I always claim it is, life has been busy busy the past few weeks. Will and I have decided that we live for the weekends of nothing and those week nights where we can finally get to the couch by 9:00 and watch a movie. We always try to stop and enjoy life but sometimes it’s hard not to get wrapped up in the hustle bustle! Will has actually spent a lot of time out of town for work. It's bittersweet for me-- of course, I miss him, but I get to spend that time with my mom- which is always a blast for me. We get to sneak in all of the little shopping trips that we miss out on when the boys are in town. Don't get me wrong, I hate it when Will is away, but mother-daughter time is the best!

We have spent the past two weekends enjoying football! Will is lucky to be with someone who loves football because he is SUCH a fanatic. Some of my favorite days are the lazy, cold ones spent watching football and grilling out. Last weekend, we drove to Athens for the UGA/Alabama (BALCKOUT!) game. Although Georgia lost (miserably), we had a blast and as we always do, we walked away saying “we need to do that more often!” It was great to see little sissy--I can’t believe Mackenzie is already a Junior. Time flies. I have so much fun when I am with her. We literally make eachother laugh until our stomaches hurt.

We were up at 5am to leave for Athens , per the boys request. Yes, Ashton and I are troopers. We did it with a smile! I have been so lucky that Will and my brother get along so well. They really are like brothers. And Ashton and I have becomes so close. I am so glad that Branden found her! The four of us are pretty much inseparable, but I wouldn't have it any other way!! Here are some pictures from the Athens trip…

Will and I, along with 2 other couples (Branden and Ashton- of course, and Kelby and Bennett) made plans to rent another cabin in Blue Ridge in 3 weeks. I am SUPER excited-- Blue Ridge is one of my favorite places. Georgia is beautiful in the Fall, and being in the mountains at the end of October is even more beautiful! We cannot wait!

And last but certainly just as important, and because I’m sure many are wondering… Bear is doing great! She is getting so big, which makes me kind of sad. Will and I absolutely love having her around. She is so sweet and lovable...and spoiled…

This weekend... full of time with Will and Bear, just as the doctor ordered!!!! I love my little fam.
