game #2

Hello fellow bloggers! Friday night was a beautiful night for high school football =the SBEC Trojans vs the JCS Eagles in Jackson, TN. There was not a cloud in the sky all day, and the temperature was in the mid 70s by the end of the game. The humidity was like gone! It was great. Unfortunately, the trojans lost 35-23, but it was still a great time. Here are a few pics of the game!





I didn't manage to get a picture of me and Ben, will definitely get one next week when we play ECS, both mine and Ben's alma mater. On another note, I am starting school tomorrow :( so my life will be a little busier once again. I have thoroughly enjoyed these past 2 1/2 weeks off! Anyways, ya'll have a good week!

friday night lights

Football season officially started last night as the SBEC Trojans took on the TRA Rebels last night! It was my first game at SBEC, and I had no idea what to expect. But, it really was so great! I had such a fun time watching the game with family and meeting new friends. And we came out with a win! Congrats Trojans! 1-0! Looking forward to a great season!

mallory and andrew's wedding festivities

Last night two of our good friends, Mallory and Andrew, got married! Mallory and Ben are both only children, and they were like brother and sister growing up. And Ben lived with Andrew and Chuck for a few years right before we got married. So, needless to say, it was very special to be a part of their special day!

a few of my favorite things.....

As the fall season is approaching, I thought I would take the time to mention a few of my favorite things about this wonderful season.

1. I love friday night football games! This year will be a little different in that I will be at SBEC on friday nights, but I am looking forward to all that high school football on a fall friday night brings!

2. I love going to Memphis football games with family and friends! Gotta say, I do miss the Big Orange and the Power T, but going to Memphis games are great fun as well! And after being a graduate of Memphis, I have to cheer for them!!!

3. I love the leaves changing colors.

4. I love the smell of pumpkin spice candles, pumpkin spice lattes from starbucks, and pumpkin bread in the oven!


5. I love wearing jeans and cowboy boots.


6. I love going to the local craft fairs and festivals.


Just a few things I am looking forward to in the upcoming weeks!
