Labor Day Weekend Fun

On Friday after school, we headed north to see the REBELS play!! I was also excited to see my family and spend time with them. Of course, little Annie was along for the trip. She was so excited to see her Ne-ne.

Annie normally is in her kennel in the backseat, but as you can tell she was not up for that on this trip. She stayed in my lap for the trip, which did not help me get my papers graded!!

Saturday morning, I woke up and headed to Memphis with Meme! We had to go to the Oak Court Mall to see the latest Alfred Dunner collection for fall. If you don't know what that is then you have obviously never shopped in the "older" section of Macy's :-) haha. We had a lot a great fun and I love helping Meme build her wardrobe. Afterwards, we headed to Marshall's (my favorite!) to find some bargains for me. I think we had a pretty successful day. I love getting to shop with me, not just for the clothes, but for the company!:-)

Later in the day, we headed to Oxford....

Yes- my parents (or grandparents, really) have a cat door! How funny is Annie? She always wants to follow us outside but can't fit through the door. Poor thing.

I was so nervous for the rebels. I love football and everything about Ole Miss. I so want Coach Freeze to be successful and bring our school back to life!

All ready for the white-out! Had to get there early for my BBQ nachos.(And cotton candy..I love food!)

Our view for the next couple of months!! Well- I won't actually be at every game. For example next week I plan to sit the UTEP game out. Of course we'll be at the Texas game and will be in New Orleans the next week for the Tulane game. Being away from home 4 weeks in a row totally stresses me out. It just doesn't mesh with my routine- ha! I was so excited to see the rebels play though! I thought they did such a good job.

I always get so sad on the way back to Jackson after a weekend at home. Not because I don't love our life here, but because I so badly miss being near family. Today has been good for me. I ran errands and did things around the house. And even though I know if we lived closer to home we could have spent the holiday with our family, I am trying to make the best of it-Breakfast for dinner!:-) Off to finish cooking...!
