Status Update

            I have been MIA from the blogging world for a little while. Tests and homework started piling up a little bit and unfortunately that normally means putting the blog on the back burner for a few days/weeks until things settle down. However my life has been short of boring lately. Some highlights of the past few weeks.
   
       1. Cole and I were able to attend a good friends wedding last weekend! We are so happy we were able to make it, and celebrate such a big day with him. He's been one of Cole's good friends since high school so it's pretty crazy to see him get married.

     
      2. We went to the South Carolina State Fair for the day Monday. We met my mom for lunch when we got to Columbia. Spent the afternoon walking around the fair. Then Monday evening we had a photo-shoot with our wedding photographer, Kaity Williamson of Very Important Date Photography, at the fair. I was sort of skeptical of the fair setting to begin with, but after we warmed up and joked around with her while she posed us and took picture after picture of us I was beyond excited to see the photos! Kaity even posted sneak peeks on facebook that night and I must say I am obsessed. I cannot wait to see the rest. I feel like a kid waiting for Christmas! 

        3. My middle niece turned 2! I can't believe how quickly they are growing up. It breaks my heart that I wasn't able to be there to celebrate with her. However from the sounds of it she had a great day and got to enjoy some quality time with Grandma Debbo (My mom...the oldest niece dubbed her with that name and it has stuck). 

       4. We went to a corn maze! Nothing makes it feel more like Fall than going to a corn maze...even if it is hot as Hades. The day we went it ended up being in the 80's. We went on a double date with one of Cole's work friends and his wife. It really was a good time, I think we are planning to go back when it feel more like Fall, at least when it's cool enough to not be sweating all the way through the maze. 
 
        5. I decorated our house for Fall! It is my first year having a place without a roommate so I was excited to actually be able to decorate the whole place. I love when people go all out and decorate everything, however with me still being in school we just can't afford that...or so I thought. We ended up going to the dollar store and getting most of our decorations there! I was super surprised that they actually had decent decorations that weren't gaudy. So we decorated our mantle, our kitchen table and our porch for around $15! 

This weekend is another huge game weekend here in Clemson. ESPN Gameday is coming back to Clemson! We are playing FSU in Death Valley at night! It is just a recipe for awesomeness! I seriously cannot wait. 

What have ya'll been up to lately?
