Thanksgiving and Auburn

Hey everyone- Tiffany made it home this week from AIT school. It was so exciting to see her, especially for Emmalyn because she was only 9 weeks old when Tiff left. We had such a nice Thanksgiving with everyone at the house. It was our second time hosting it at our house...and I forgot how stressful it can be. Of course I wasn't worried about the food because I don't care about what I am eating, give me cereal and I would be just as happy. I guess that is what happens when you despise cooking. Although I did make two sweet potato casseroles and four layer dessert! I just focused all of my attention on the china table setting and the centerpieces - which were beautiful by the way! Oh and I ordered the turkey so it was all good! My family, grandparents, and Ron and Elizabeth with kids came over so it was 15 all together. We broke out my new game of Penny Can and had a blast.


One thing about holidays is trying to see everyone in one day. So around 2 we headed to Sylacauga to see Wilkins mom and family. Eating two big meals in one day is an art for those of you who don't know. The food was so good - it was even better the second time around and when I'm not the one making it. Emmalyn was so wiped out from all of the excitement and fun she passed out early. This was good preparation for Christmas- I think I am going to need a gym membership.

So after Thanksgiving the real stressful day came. Alabama vs. Auburn! Wilkins decided he didn't want anyone at the house to watch the game except me (Wilkins = Auburn fan, me = Alabama fan). Anyways, we spent most of the game on opposite sides of the couch. Wilkins spent the first half of the game playing penny can for a distraction then I spent the second half doing it! It was such a terrible game, for me! Wilkins is beyond excited and I guess the rest of us need to be too. So... Go Auburn beat South Carolina for the championship!!!


Oh and Emmalyn picked her side too! So unfair...but doesn't she look just too cute!!!
