"Stunned Rebels"

I think that was one of the quotes from the Clarion Ledger today.  They hit the nail on the head.  After halftime, we decided we would watch us score one more touchdown and then go back to the grove. Needless to say, we didn't make it back to the grove until 6:30.  I don't think it EVER crossed our minds that we would be in DOUBLE overtime with Jacksonville State!!!  Surprisingly, Josh and Kirk behaved themselves pretty well, considering.  We had one hat throwing incident and a few expletives, but other than that we were good! Josh says he was just so "numb" he couldn't react.  He did tell me after the game that we "are not going to New Orleans anymore for the Tulane game."  Luckily he changed his mind.  This morning he said we really can only go up from here.  I think that's about right! Oh well, we are still (unrealistically) optimistic!  And, somehow we still love the Rebels.  The obnoxious state fan fb statuses on the other hand...... I am not going to say one word until after the Egg Bowl! 

 We did have such a fun weekend despite the football game.  Kirk and Caroline stayed with us, and we had a great time being low key!  Friday night, we cooked out with Jenny, Sparkles, and Carolina.  We moved our table to our back porch bc the weather was so wonderful.   We are going to do that more often- great idea, Caroline!  

Josh's parents came today and went to church and took us to lunch.  We haven't seen them in forever, so it was fun to catch up.  We even got to go look at some cars this afternoon!  Josh has realized that his car is on the downhill slope, and after 15 years it's time for a new one.  

 Ok, off to dinner and a movie!  I am SO happy for a three day weekend. :)

 Happy Labor Day!  

Our little setup
Kirk and Sparky provided us some HILARIOUS youtube entertainment

Finally,  a pic in front our home! Not the best, but oh well!

Those smiles didn't last much longer :(
