Halloween, a Win and Great Friends!

We had a great weekend here in Clemson! First, it was Clemson's Homecoming weekend and so I went to Tigerama with Kate and Z. We had a great time and it's fun event to kick off the weekend. This year some of the football team preformed to Thriller but remained it Spiller. The crowd went nuts! I also hosted the Tiger Cub Birthday Party on Saturday morning before the game. All you need to know is that I had 250 lil kids and their parents attend the party, enough said!

Our good friends and Colin's old roommate Wes and Kate came to stay with us this weekend. Thanks for coming! We don't get to see the Sweeten's enough and every time we do, its always a blast. We tailgated with Wes's parents before the game and then stood in the pouring rain on the field to watch the Tigers run down the hill. Our Halloween night wasn't very eventful but it was fun. We handed out candy to the little kids in the neighborhood and then went out for some Mexican food.

Wes and Kate have a puppy named Bear that they brought with them. Bella and Bear are officially boyfriend and girlfriend. It was love at first sight and Bella has been looking for Bear all day long!

Today was just a lazy Sunday. After a busy weekend Colin and I napped with all the animals and ran to Target. I better get rested up for a busy week filled with board meetings and hopefully a Tiger win over FSU!

Colin's Pumpkin Creations

Since we just bought our house and had been living in an apartment for 2 years, we didn't own ANY fall decorations. I haven't really had the time or money to purchase decorations this year so pumpkins it was. (I am waiting till everything goes 50% off after Halloween before I shop for next years decorations)

I'm very lucky to have such an artistic husband. We bought 4 pumpkins and only 3 are carved so far. Colin has carved all 3 because if I did one and sat it next to his, it would look like a 5 year old did it. I do want to add that these were all hand drawn, no stencils used!

Below are our only fall decorations but I brag on my husband because I think we will have the best pumpkins on the block this year! (I'm sorry the pictures aren't the best, I took them with my iPhone)

Happy almost Halloween!

I had people comment on Facebook that Colin should do a tiger so I thought I would add this picture of pumpkins he carved a few years back. Mine is in the middle...can't you tell :0)

You are never too old to dress up...

This year for Halloween we decided to get dressed up and go downtown!

Some of the girls that I work with went too! We decided to dress up as different types of music. I decided to be country music, Natalie was hip-hop and Kate was 80's music. We had a great time!

Colin met us out for awhile and came as Magnum PI. His mustache was very legit! The best part of the night was people watching! People get so creative with this costumes!! Some of my favorites included a girl that went as grapes and also a retired Hooters girl!

As I said earlier, I will be doing some backtracking on my blogging to get everyone up to date! Look a wedding post soon!
