The two sisters

The oldest, B, and her husband recently made the move out West from the Carolinas. They are getting accustomed to life in the country and becoming a student once again for the mister. The youngest, A, and her husband made a short move within the Carolinas for the mister to once again, become a student.

When we both found ourselves in similar situations - moving and the misters going back to school - but far apart from one another, we thought a blog would be a great way to still do something together and for family and friends to keep up with us. Follow us as we share our love for cooking, the great outdoors, and home.

Pigskin

As I stepped outside this morning to water my herbs (let's just say they aren't doing awesome), it felt like fall. More importantly, it felt like FOOTBALL! I can't believe it is that time of year already. Where did 2010 go?

Back to the more important subject, college football. The Gamecocks kick off the season tonight with a Thursday home game. I'm a little nervous as I'm not quite sure how Wes will handle the situation. Even though we aren't going, he is down on campus today for classes and will be surrounded by the overly excited (which I don't blame them) fans and let's just say we love our Tigers around this house. While I'm not into the whole bashing the rival because I find it rather annoying when others do and let's be honest, Gamecocks nor Tigers have any right being boastful, I can't pull for the Gamecocks either. Although, I'm sure that time will come when we pull for the Gamecocks as long as they aren't playing Clemson. That time will probably come sooner than I imagine since I saw USC folders sitting on a certain someone's desk, purchased by a certain someone. I was shocked.



No matter the team, college football is magical. It does something to you. It rattles something inside of you and makes the days feel different. And nothing, nothing, does it more than seeing those Tigers run down the hill! 1-2-3-4, 1-2-3-4, C-L-E-M-S-O-N, fight tigers, fight tigers, fight, fight, FIGHT. (just couldn't resist)



And just for fun, a throwback


Make us proud boys!
