GO UF!

Hello again!
So, I know I'm a little late but I finally changed my mantel to sport some Gator Fever!  Check out the great painting my S.I.L (sister-in-law) Melissa did for Bobby and I.  I just loved seeing us as Gators! Melissa also designed the paper behind the letter F. The hanging gator was cut from wood by one of my Papa's friends.  Last season he sent me a bunch of gators in different sizes to paint and sell at our tailgate! Pretty cool huh!?!  Anyhoo, hope you enjoy your Saturday and GO GATORS!!!

I Heart Oprah

Hey friends!

So today Oprah's Farewell Season premiered. In case you didn't all ready know, I'm a HUGE Oprah fan!  Today's episode was great! I was laughing and crying at the same time, literally! If you didn't watch the episode, Oprah hand picked her audience and dubbed them the Ultimate Fans. She also announced that she is taking the whole audience to Australia with John Travolta as the Pilot!!! WOW!  Well anyway, with the excitement of the show--and shows to come-- I was reminded of my favorite Oprah-ism. I decided to make a little badge to post on our blog, because that's where the name of our blog came from! So here it is... ( I picked up that cutie chalkboard from Shabby Blogs.)

I was also reminded of our recent trip to Chicago. While visiting Chicago, I was most excited to visit The Oprah Store and Harpo Studios. Here are a few pics from that day...

Bride To Be

Hey! Long time no see... 

I can't believe it's be so long since I've posted! (forgive me...) I've been so busy with school starting, football season and my Matron-of-Honor duties! Well, you might remember the Save-The-Dates I made with the help of my best friend and Bride-to-Be, Kelly. Well this weekend was her Bridal Shower. I put a lot of thought into how to decorate and make it look festive for Kelly.  Here are a few pics of what I came up with...
