Blog Catch-up

Somehow I managed to miss posting anything most of this month. I even skipped posting Halloween pictures. So, I am going to play a little catch-up and post some pictures and fill in some of the details from October and November.

Basically we have had a great fall! The weather has been great and the leaves have been beautiful. We have had lots of fun watching the leaves change colors and then fall off the trees. Many of the roads around Rock Hill are covered in leaves that blow all over the place when you drive through them. I had forgotten how much I love this time of year in this area.

For Halloween, Alex and Emily were my 2 favorite tigers! Alex was a Clemson Tiger Football Player, and Emily was our #1 Tiger Cheerleader! Emily loves her cheerleader outfit and asks frequently if she can wear her "tiga skut"...that's Emily speak for the skirt that goes with her cheerleader outfit.

This past Saturday Alex, Ryan, my sister, Brooke, and I all headed to Clemson for the Homecoming Ballgame. It hit me the middle of last week that this year was my 10 year College reunion. Yikes I feel old! The day was beautiful. It had rained much of last week and we were a little worried about the weather, but it ended up being a great, cool, crisp, football weather kind-of-day. And to top off the great day of walking all around Tiger Town, the Tigers pulled out a super win against Duke!

Now, I know that was brief, but I think I am caught up on most of the details from the past month. We are now very quickly headed for the holiday season! We had our first taste of Thanksgiving today at Alex's Thanksgiving Feast. Alex's class along with the other three 4K classes performed several songs and poems about Thanksgiving and then we got to eat a very yummy Thanksgiving meal with Alex! Ryan and I both enjoyed it and were very thankful we got to be there for Alex's program! This weekend is Emily's 2nd birthday. My baby is growing up! I will post pictures after the party!
