Well, this is getting ridiculous.
Fayetteville has had days of snow, ice, and slippery roads.
Even more is supposedly on the way.
Some snow fun, plus some, in photos…
Sadie had a BIRTHDAY!
She turned four.
More Razorback basketball.
A night of champagne & cupcakes.
I can’t believe it’s almost been one year since our first C and C!
Cheers!
(and go away, snow)
It was a day that we counted down to for months.
It was a game that we should have won.
Sadly, it was a game that we lost.
Despite the immense disappointment
the excitement that surrounded the game
was incredible.
Here’s the fun we had
supporting our Hogs.
Win or lose.
The excitement invaded the whole weekend.
With friends in from out of town
and a party at Jill & Ben’s.
Ashlee & Seth (with Hogs Guy mustache creepiness)
Jonathan
Brains & GL
Cathy
Cathy & Ben
Paul
Dustin
Maxine’s Bar.
And on to the game!
Woke up bright & early
to eat sausage balls
and tailgate.
With Hogs Guy.
Meet Hogs Guy.
And his intense love for the Arkansas Razorbacks.
Showing off his (Razorback) belt buckle.
Oh.
He was everywhere.
Good friends were
everywhere too.
Looking back.
Despite the loss,
the times were good.
Kids even played beer pong.
And we even got a glimpse of
Ryan Mallett.
Todd & most of my friends
went to the game.
But a few of us girls
walked over to Smoke & Barrel
to eat our cupcakes, drink a beer, & watch it on the big screen.
If only
we had won.
That’s the only way
the day could have
been any better.
Fall.
It’s my favorite time of the year.
Hoodies.
Cool, clear skies.
Extra hot Chai with whip cream.
And football.
Here’s how I’ve spent
my September so far…
Farmers Market
on the town square.
Tailgating.
I love that we can walk to the stadium from our house.
Yet another show from our Memphis pal,
Cory Branan.
Grilling out, friends,
and a Bichon invasion.
A quick work trip to Dallas.
My pretty morning view from the Fairmont.
More Razorback football.
Yesterday’s win puts Arkansas at
# 10 the in the AP poll!
That’s the real football.
I’ve been spending my time with
fantasy football too.
Todd and I played each other in week one.
Despite the slow start,
The Cuddly Kittens kicked some Butt.
This week looks to be even better.
The Arkansas Razorbacks are set to play Alabama
(the number one team in the country) at home.
Bright and early the next morning
I fly to Washington D.C. for work,
with a friend in tow.
Thankfully, I’m able to stay an extra day
to play a tourist in my old town.
Pictures to follow…
I went to my very first Razorback football game on Saturday! We bought tickets at the very last minute but somehow ended up on the third row from the field. Todd and I had to walk to the stadium as soon as I got off work, so I didn’t have time to change out of my black shirt and gold dangly earrings. I was kinda disappointed that I didn’t plan ahead and wear a red shirt like every other person in the stands. However, I was ultra disappointed to see that when we got to our seats and looked out in the field that the rivalry team’s colors are, of course, BLACK and GOLD. Boo.
Hog wild:
Walked past a baton twirling show at the pep rally the night before:
My new friend Jessica who just moved here from Milwaukee.
BB at a party last night
Walking and picturing.
Then there’s me.
Now it’s Sunday… my one day off of school and work. School by the way is going great. It’s already a lot of work, but most of my classes are at least interesting. Oh and in other news, my mom and step-dad just bought a house in Memphis (they’ve decided to leave DC). It’s a big, yet cozy, old house over by Rhodes, but the best part is that it comes w/ a hot tub inside a screened-in porch. All in all I’m just excited to have my mom in my home town again.
