Smile
Check out these snazzy photos... My dad (the photographer) and mom (his assistant) helped us out when they came to town by shooting some pics at a sweet downtown Anderson location. We had fun - and Marc smiled the whole time! Best part - when my mom spied on another couple who had a 'real photographer' so we could steal their poses! Now time to update some picture frames around the house!

Happy Happy Happy
We had a wonderful Thanksgiving weekend! The house was cozy, and full of family. We had a great turkey dinner, followed by hours of crazy games and Duck Dynasty! On Saturday we all went to our first Clemson vs South Carolina game. Even though we didn't get the outcome we wanted- we still had a blast. It was such a great atmosphere and good way to end the 2012 season. We gave Kelli and Kyle the Clemson tour complete with a stop at the Esso, and The Rock. My parents got to meet lots of people from work at Dr. B's tailgate - and eat lots of yummy food!
The next month is going to fly by... we are headed to Allentown for Cookie Weekend, and then we will be off to Ft. Lauderdale for Christmas. I am spending the afternoon recovering from the festivities, cleaning the house, doing orange laundry, and catching up on Christmas Movies!

Holiday ADD
The Holidays are approaching fast. And by fast, I mean very fast. I still have Halloween decorations out, and I am debating just skipping the Thanksgiving ones, and getting straight to Christmas. I have a million to do lists. We are hosting family for Thanksgiving and attending football games. Both which take a lot of planning and prep time. Throw in a few Christmas Pinterest projects and things are getting crazy.
I have a fear that when it is time for turkey and stuffing, the tree will be up instead, and Santa will have arrived already. That's how fast my head is spinning.
Might I add ... if you haven't already started the 57 things you 'pinned' for Christmas, Holidays, and homemade gifts - you should just wait till next year. Save your sanity. And stay way from Pinterest because you are probably like me and don't have time for any more projects.
Trust me... your family has survived this long with out Pinterest. They will be OK with regular cinnamon rolls- they don't have to be the shape of a Christmas tree. French Toast doesn't have to taste like pumpkin. You don't have to win the award for most creative Elf on a Shelf. Your traditional Christmas photo is just fine. You don't need Picasso to paint your nails. One holiday outfit per kid is still acceptable. Walmart wrapping paper is fine considering small children are going to rip it apart and not appreciate your creative one letter brown paper packaging.
ps. i am not a bahumbug .. just realizing whatever you do for the holidays is perfect for your family.
pps. i made these before Pinterest ever existed. SO these may be found around my holiday igloo... aka cheese ball. How cute are they :)
