Tryptophanning Turkey & Tearful Tigers.

Oh, what a great holiday weekend it was.

During the holidays, Cameron and I are always driving around the state of SC. On Thanksgiving, we drive about an hour and a half to spend the first half of the day near Bamberg, SC with his (huge) family. Around 2pm, we drive about an hour to Summerville to spend the second half of the day with my family. Lots of food. Lots of family.

His parents, us, his brother and new(!) sister-in-law

On to Summerville..
My sister and Cameron.
Me with my cousin, Sam.

We went home around 6pm, which felt like 10pm, layed on couch and watched Life as We Know It. I thought it was really cute and I'm pretty sure Cameron even liked it.

Friday I didn't hit up any crazy Black Friday sales. Nope. This girl had to work..but only until 1pm so it wasn't that bad.  Oh, I did get some sweet Black Friday deals at the grocery store. That's how I roll. Get it? Roll..grocery store... Moving on..

Saturday was the BIG GAME DAY! We packed up the car around noon, made a pit stop at Publix for beer, chicken and ice (typical tailgate necessities) and were finally on our way! It was a great day - the weather was just right, I was with some of my favorite people and oh yeah, WE WON!


The Gamecocks.

A rare sighting - Spurrier smiling.
Great job, Gamecocks!!

PS - I got an early Christmas present from my parents last night - an Iphone! Tell me all of your favorite apps please!

3 Peat!




Cameron and I are headed up to Columbia this afternoon for the biggest game of the year! Gamecocks vs. Tigers

If you've been following my blog for a while, you will know that I am a South Carolina grad and Cameron is a Clemson grad. And we are diehard fans of our schools, which makes it very interesting come football season.

Although Clemson has a higher all-time winning record, South Carolina has won that past two years and is looking to make it a 3 peat this year! It would be huge.

What's funny is Cameron's brother and his wife are also a house divided, but the other way around. Gil is the Carolina fan and Nancy is the Clemson fan. So I just may be sitting with Gil during the game and Cameron just may be sitting with Nancy.

So, starting at 7:45pm, if you don't mind, cheer for the Gamecocks!!
