Cousin time and a BIG WIN!

My SIL, Ashley, and her girls, Taylor and Anna, came to spend the weekend in Greenville last weekend. They stayed over at MaSha's house and we luckily got to have lots of quality time with these three pretty girls. 

Friday evening of last week, our family went over to MaSha's to visit and hang out with all the girls. We had a great time and the boys fell asleep on the way home.

On Saturday, we all met up for lunch at Brixx, then came back to our house for the afternoon. The Clemson game came on at 3:30 so we had tailgate food and fun times. Taylor and Anna are THE best. They played with the boys all afternoon and kept them totally entertained. The girls were so patient and sweet and the little guys completely love them! The adults got to watch the game almost undisturbed while all the kids played together. It was fabulous. I think Taylor and Anna need to move in with us. ;)

Ashley and the girls are always such a total joy to have around. The boys look up to their sweet cousins and family time is at the top of our list of most important things. Thanks to Ashley, Taylor and Anna for coming to visit and for being such awesome visitors and playmates. We love you all so much!

I also need to note that the Tigers are 9-0 and currently ranked #1 in the country. NUMBER ONE. Yes, you read that correctly. This is such a special season and although we have several more weeks before we find out if we get to go to the Playoffs, this is incredible! We just have to keep on winning. We haven't been #1 in my lifetime. It feels great and I'm eating it up. This Saturday, we beat Florida State and locked up the Atlantic division in the ACC. We are going to the ACC Championship Game in Charlotte to play against the winner of the Coastal Division. This is all too much info for most of you probably, but we are just so excited! Each Saturday morning when I go in to the boy's room to get them up for the day, I play Tiger Rag (the Clemson fight song) on my phone and they love it. They will ask me to play it "Again! Again!", which I do. It's become a fun little tradition this season. And they look great in orange, which they wear on Fridays (solid orange day) and of course on Saturdays when we have a game! GO TIGERS!!!!
