ahhh weekend

Ohhh the weekend! This one is definitely needed :-D

I am headed home to see my mama in the good ol' bcs. I'm pretty sure Halloween is her favorite holiday so it is a must that I be there, so I'm excited. PLUS I haven't been home in almost 2 months so it's time. She's already called to ask about snack choices, I love my mom!

My favorite Halloween ritual is to carve pumpkins. Andy and I have done it the past couple of years and I'm excited for it this weekend again. I just would like to point out that my pumpkins are always better than his.

Hope all you lovelies have a wonderful "holiday" weekend as well. Keep it classy with those costumes ;-D

Look for fun pictures from our weekend on Monday.

**Also stay tuned for a potentially LARGE announcement coming soon**

Battle of the Piney Woods

I was just going through my pictures from this Saturday and it reminded me again, of how much fun we had down in Houston at Reliant Stadium for the Battle of the Piney Woods Game. It's one of the biggest rivalry games in Texas for SHSU vs. SFA.

Andy and me started our day at the Honda of Houston store off 290! Of course we had to fit dirtbikes into our football packed day, just so he could remind me which was the better sport! It was neat for me to see the massive store... it made him want a red bike.

We then headed to tailgate for a bit before we had to head up to the Tejas Suite where my office was throwing a pre-game party before the game. This was the neatest part. With our all-access passes we were able to go "behind the scenes" at Reliant. Not everyday to you get to do that. Andy liked the player weight training room the best. I liked walking out the tunnel onto the field!

ARAMARK (our catering company on campus) rented a suite in the stadium to hosts friends and what not during the game. We were so lucky enough to be guests in their suite. We had great seats, great food, and great drinks... we truly felt so special. It was the best way to watch the game for sure. Can't wait for next year!

Here are some pictures from our *fab* day:

This was during our pre-game party. Notice the perfect GO Bearkat Attire!

This was from our seats in the suite, it was the PERFECT way to watch the game.

I guess it should be said that the Bearkats did lose the game, but only by 3 points. They played with their hearts for sure and it showed! Our guys have made such a HUGE improvement since last year with the help of a new coach. Even though we did lose it did not put a damper on the fun.

We will Axe those Jacks next year.

It's a Bloggy Blog World Out There

Hellllo!

I love blogs. I love to read blogs, I love to follow blogs, I love to write blogs, well, sort of. I let my first attempt at my bloggingness to be interrupted by my hectic schedule and rough Spring. Lots of things got in the way of really showing you guys what I'm made of. So here goes my second chance.

I realized that I literally go months without talking to some of my friends, MONTHS. How are they to know how I am doing? I *thankfully* am able to keep up with some of my them (shamefully) through their blogs. Shouldn't I show the same courtesy? Shouldn't there be a way that my mother KNOWS that I am alive and well even though she's called me 20 times (in an hour) and I haven't been able to get to my phone?

How neat is it to have an online journal and memory book? And not just one that I can enjoy but others (hopefully) can and will too.

My life as of late has been supercharged going 100 MPH in the fast lane of I-45, well, Sam Houston Ave really. I am in my 2ND year of grad school (finishing in August, THANK GOODNESS) and working about a bajillion hours a week planning events for the President at SHSU, the best job a girl could ask for. Those two things coupled with my attempt at a social life keeps me pretty busy. I hope to make a few "pit stops" (ok, getting corny I know, just deal with it, it's my intro blog) and fill you guys in on what's going on in my *fab* world. What I'm doing, what I'm loving at the moment, what I'm frustrated with, you know all those insider secrets you would only know if you were a little mini person sitting on my shoulder day to day.

Get ready, this will be fun.

Tomorrow is the President's annual Fall Festival at Gibbs Ranch, it's finally Fall, sort of. The 90 degree weather isn't making it so fallish, but I guess that's Texas for ya!

Blogfully,
