Maybe just maybe I am not the only one

So its been a awhile since I wrote anything but life has a funny way of getting in the way of my accomplishing all the stuff I want.

Mostly just keeping everyone happy seems to be the greatest challenge lately. I feel like a big failure in this regard and for a long time I thought that I was the only one but today I read a blog that I swear all you have to do is insert my name and that just about covers it.

I make a point check this blog everyday and usually it makes me laugh but today it actually made me feel better and not so alone in this mess that is parenthood.

Here is the link to the blog.

Our First Little League Game

What an experience it was. Just getting ready was a production the pants to small the shirt to big and the yellow socks all I can say is WOW. Her hat and jersey have her name and number on them. The smile on her face says it all. 

She had a blast. Got to hit twice let the coach pitch to her before deciding to use the tee and really hustled after the ball when it was hit to her(sometimes even when it wasn't). She ran the bases and smiled all the way around.  When she crosses home plate she jumps up and down and giggles it is the.cutest.thing.ever.

Its Fall (sort of) and Football has started

There is a chill in the air(kind of) a crispness in the morning that says cooler temps are on the way(I hope) ESPN on the tv and on the computer and JW is gone every Saturday since he has to work on the Saturdays that he is not in Athens at a game.







We are an SEC family and that means that our entire lives revolve around football. We schedule everything around it birthday partys and weekends away(these really dont happen).

Its not just UGA's schedule for us we have to consider South Carolina's(the real USC) as well. There arent that many Saturdays that have a bye week for one and an away game for the other.

We have even had friends schedule their stuff around Georgia's  schedule so that we will show up. With both girls birthdays falling during football season we have decided that we will only have one party till they are old enough to tell us that they want their own partys. Its just easier that way.

 Football its what is on the tv in the living room all day on Saturday when JW is home and sometimes even when he is not.

Its serious around here. The girls have been able to say Go Dawgs since they started talking can sing Glory and give a serious bark. They know Uga, Hairy Dog and even Cocky on sight.

We have refrained teaching them Go Cocks for obvious reasons. They know that orange is not a good color and have embraced the UGA way of life they even have a movie about it and watch it at least once a week.

We really need to get the one for USC as well its time we diversified the training.

So from this house to everyone else Go Cocks and Go Dawgs heres to a great football season.
