Salt Water Saturday: Game Day In Tuscaloosa




Happy Fall, Y'all! 


Today we make the four hour drive to Tuscaloosa, AL for the first SEC home game of the season. In a nationwide broadcast on CBS Sports, the Alabama vs. Arkansas game promises to be an exciting afternoon of football. 
Tradition runs deep in Tuscaloosa - winning and partying
Game day hosts Adam and Andrew, not only do these boys know how to have a great time - they also taught us how to make jalapeno vodka! Mixed with orange juice, this makes a nice change over a traditional screwdriver. 


These pictures were from Labor Day weekend and our first home game of 2011 - Alabama vs. Kent State. My BFF Priscilla went with me and we had a blast! Here's hoping today's game (and the outcome) is just as fun! 

Pictures as everyone made their way into stadium
We were too busy posing for this picture and missed an opportunity to have one with Alabama's Athletic Director, Mal Moore. Oops. 


Are you attending a college football game this weekend? If so, have a marvelous time and I hope your team wins (unless it's Arkansas today, LOL).


Roll Tide!

    Take good care,

My Visit With Caroline Grace Jewelry

Image
Happy Tuesday, Shopaholics! Thanks so much for all your kind words and comments after my last blog post. Admittedly I was feeling a wee bit sorry for myself and a little unloved. You know I'm not normally one to be "down" on anything - least of all myself! Your support means the world to me, and I really appreciate you all caring about my life - even when I'm not shopping. LOL Do you remember me being excited about getting tickets to the Bon Jovi concert here at the beach? I managed to talk my friend Lucy over at Caroline Grace Jewelry into coming down for the concert and to spend the weekend.  It was the first time we'd met in person, although we were already big buddies on Twitter, Facebook, etc. DH was calling her a "computer friend"; so thankfully she came down and proved to him she was a "real friend". We started the weekend by getting fresh pedicures on Friday morning: Then, we went down to the public beach for the concert. We tai

Birthday Celebration: Lilly Pulitzer Giveaway from The Pink Pelican

Image
Today I will celebrate my birthday. I'm a little bit sad to report, the DH is out of town and won't be able to come home for the festivities. Not that it's a big deal or anything (not a milestone birthday or anything), but I am a LEO and y'all know it's true - Leos love their birthday. I'm no exception! Tonight I will celebrate with my sister and BFF by going out to dinner, and tomorrow with birthday cake and gifts with my parents, nephews and friends. I'm so thankful for it all, but I'm going to miss my sweetie. :-(  My friends at The Pink Pelican in Huntsville have generously offered a giveaway to commemorate the day!  Most of you know, they are one of my favorite Lilly Pulitzer Via shops and I buy lots of my Lilly from Angie and The Pelican Crew! I love knowing that I am supporting a small, female owned business. In today's economy, I think that is very important. If you are considering any purchases from the new Lilly Pulitzer Fall 2011 line

Testing The Waters

***Y'all who were reading before - you know I am HONEST to a fault. This post contains my honest feelings and is not censored. If you came here today to get cheered up or motivated, I apologize in advance. You might want to tune in another day!*** A big hello to you all! Wow - I can't believe it has been four years since I was involved in blogging. I have often wondered "is it time to revive the blog" over this time...and after some encouragement from long time readers and friends, I have decided to test the waters!  It feels so strange - I don't even know if folks read blogs anymore! I know that most blogging happens on platforms such as Instagram, which in my mind is for pictures more than content. And heck let's face it, most days I don't even put on makeup or fix my hair, so that will NOT work for this chick. HA! If you're still around and want to read my ramblings, this is the place for you. 😀 The last time I blogged I was so focused on
