Tailgating, Tons of People, and Too Few Touchdowns

Brandon and I went to the TN game today in Knoxville. It was a lot of fun but it definitely was a full day. I got up at 8 and got ready and met Brandon at 9. We ran a few errands and stopped at Hardee's to grab breakfast. We tail gated with some friends of Brandon's and we started that around 12:30. We headed over to the stadium around 2:15 and waded our way through people until about 3:30 when me and Brandon decided to go ahead and take our seats inside. Our seats were really good as you can see above. Thank the good Lord we were in the shade and didn't have to sit in the hot sun through the game. After the game, we went to Abuelo's at Turkey Creek and ate dinner. We had a good time but were very tired. Too bad we lost!

Showers of Blessings

I recently had my first wedding shower on my side of the family. My aunt Lisa had it at her house on the river and we had it on the dock. It turned out to be a nice day. It didn't start raining until it was over so that was good. We received lots of good stuff especially kitchen goodies. Here is everything I can remember...cookware, frying pan, utensil set, measuring cups, sheets, mattress pad, gift cards, two clocks, crock pot, flatware, blankets, cake platter, glasses and I am probably leaving some stuff out but that is what I can remember.

A house update:
My dad has graciously taken the rest of this week off to finish my kitchen floors at the house. He is restaining them a darker color. He has also done all of the majority of the work in the house that would have otherwise had to have been hired out. He is too talented and it gets him a lot of extra work :) Brandon has pressure washed the entire house and back deck. It looks so good :) Now we are working on staining the deck. Hopefully we will be able to finish it by this weekend.

Honeymoon update:
We finally booked a honeymoon. We decided to stay in Destin for the week after the wedding. It will be easier for us and we are excited about it.
