Family Time

It's finally here! 

Thanksgiving Break and all of its glory!

I'm so excited to spend time with my family this week.

Between work, school, and spending time with friends... I'm hardly ever home anymore.

Basically, I just love Athens so much I don't want to leave it too often. ;)

So we're heading down to South Georgia to visit with my Mama's side of the family for the next 5 days. 

AND exciting news,

We finally took an updated family portrait.

My parents are photographers.. but we hardly ever take the time to take pictures of our OWN family. 

So we did on North Campus at UGA last Sunday and I've been dying to post them. I just love North Campus in the fall.. the leaves are absolutely gorgeous, so I'm glad we were able to snag a portrait while they were so pretty. 

I'm definitely looking forward to having some time to blog over the break since I've become quite the slacker. I have a lot to catch you all up on! 

Wayne's World!! Party Onnnn!!!

Okay, so this is a movie I grew up watching.

[a little inappropriate for a 4yr old.. what were my parents thinking?]

and I pretty much quote it on the reg.

So I just have to know... are there any fellow Wayne's World lovers out there?

I've been watching youtube clips laughing my tail off! Garth makes me laugh so hard!

and this is definitely my favorite scene in the movie. Can't get enough.

Some clips from the whole movie:

   

I must say, they left some pretty significantly funny clips out of that compilation. ("Sucking my will to liiiive!")  But whaterrrr..

PLEASE tell me you've seen this movie.

and if SO.. what is YOUR favorite part?!

So over it.

School is sucking the life out of me. 

I don't have time to blog anymore... :(

and all I want to do in my free time is nap.

UGH! 

Where are you Thanksgiving Break?!?!?!?!

Only a few more weeks though.. I can make it! 

I miss reading your posts.. and I promise to back on my A-game during Thanksgiving! #cantwait

Here's some pictures from my weekend:

We watched the Alabama vs. LSU game and I got to see my sweet friend Taylor who I hadn't seen since my bday! :)

 

We hung out with the crazy boys.. 

And then we headed downtown to meet up with some of our friends!

 

Now time to get back to the books!

Hope you ladies are having a fantastic week!

I'm from GA.... G-A!!!

Game day in Jax...

and our DAWGS did us proud ;)

It took us a good hour to get to our parking spot. The streets were all blocked off and one-way.. and I thought we would never get there. But FINALLY we made it, and we got our tailgate ready!

No GA/FL is complete without a trip to the Party Bus!! 

Some people from our hometown converted an old tour bus into the "Party Bus" that they take down to Jacksonville every year. It's got a big dance floor on the roof you can climb up to, and they blare music so everyone is always dancing in the street!

 

 and we SCORED!!!

 dancing in the streets to some Georgia songs!

 on top of the party bus after the game!

 Wow, sorry for the picture overload.

But that's my weekend in a nut shell! 

It's just hard to get back in the schoolwork mindset now..

 

Hunker Down Hairy Dawg!

GA/FL weekend was AMAZING.

Our DAWGS won, we spent some wonderful time with friends, laughed too much, and danced our little behinds off. ;)

We stayed at my grandmother's on SSI, and that was the PLACE to be. 

So. Much. Fun. 

Picture overload so get ready. 

Friday we hit up Frat Beach, and I couldn't believe all of the people. It was nuts! Everyone was dressed in crazy clothes.. now I know to stop by a thrift store before next year.  

I love people watching.. so this was definitely the place to be. We saw Amy Winehouse:

 

After a few hours at the beach we headed back to my grandma's to get cleaned up before going out.

 

We hit up Bubba Garcia's and it was packed out.. I didn't manage to get any pictures from the night.. but we did hang out with some of the boys I went to high school with and it was loads of fun!

Stay tuned for tomorrow's post with my actual tailgate & game pictures! ;)
