I Heart Faces Challenge: Black

I took the kids down to an old grist mill near our home. Needless to say it wasn't the best trip of making pictures but at least I got this one and a few others. Now to find a time to make another trip and hopefully get some better ones.

The Big Game

Unless you have been living under a rock or don’t follow college football (which I can’t imagine not following college football), then you know that there is a big game this weekend. Big probably doesn’t describe what this game is - it’s #1 vs #2 - LSU vs Alabama.

Hubs has made sure that he opens that day and Red is getting excited. They are the only two Alabama fans in the house so far since the twins are too young to understand what is going on. You would think me being an Auburn fan that I would be wearing purple and gold on Saturday and yelling “Go Tigers’ all while downing a good bowl of gumbo. This is where things are different for me than most Auburn fans. See if Alabama loses, I will have two very, very unhappy campers in my house and if Alabama wins, I can only imagine how excited the two of them will be. It’s hard to pull against Hubs and Red’s team when it was Hubs who buys all my Auburn gear including championship gear this past season. Plus I don’t know who I dislike more Les Miles or Nick Saban so maybe the game will end in a tie and they both will lose. Yes i know this doesn’t happen anymore but it’s nice to think about.

So this Saturday while all a lot of Auburn fans will be wearing purple and gold, I believe I will be in my orange and blue celebrating an off weekend and eating some good gumbo. Maybe I may venture down to the Christmas Village during the game to do a little shopping.... no I don’t see that happen, this game is going to be good either way.
