CRIMSON TIDE! (+ grandma)

My grandma took a trip to Gulf Shores, and Athens is right on the way! She made a special stop just for me. They took me out to Logan's, and I showed them the preschool/church/apartment. They also answered all of my life's questions because they are so experienced and wise. Okay, just kidding:) We did have some good talk/laugh time though.

Then, it was super bowl time!!! Oh wait.....no one in AL cares about NFL football, but EVERYONE is OBSESSED with college ball, and what do you know: Alabama won the national championship! Although I don't really have a passion for football, I rooted for AL since I'm living here:) Did I mention there were wings? That made it all worth it. Heehee.

I was about the only one without a red shirt on (and Mark who is an Auburn fan:) 

 

I made the fruit plate (with Jessica's help:) *sidenote: pineapples are EXTREMELY difficult to cut

 

Watchin' the game

Oh yes, and there was other very exciting news: Jessica and Bamber learned/tried to play chess. It was quite humorous....and interesting (especially when I put a mento into my coke-try it sometime:)

I got my cake and ate it too

Over Christmas break, I headed back to IN. In two weeks, I made a million plans with a million friends and family. As I was driving back to AL, I realized something: perhaps the closest I'll ever come to understanding God's love comes when I feel love from and toward others. He must have made it that way for a reason: to unite us. As this new chapter begins, may we remember Who we breathe for: CHRIST ALONE. Happy New Year!

Okay, prepare yourself for TONS of pictures because I'm a bum and did absolutely NO blogging while I was in IN, so now I have an overload of pics......kind of like when you put off doing laundry and then you have to do like 20 loads in the same day....or when you put off Christmas shopping and then you have to do it all in one day....or...well, you get the picture (pun intended):
