What a great weekend I have had.
1. Right now, I am watching the South Carolina Super Bowl, USC versus Clemson. It is our state’s equivalent of the Super Bowl.
2. Guess what we just won! Yea. Our fifth consecutive win over our biggest rival. Before the game we were ranked No. 10 in the US and Clemson ranked No. 6.
3. Earlier Saturday, we celebrated our little grandson’s first birthday. Notice his father, and our son, Eric is wearing a USC Gamecock sweatshirt. He really had a great day today too. His son is one, and his favorite team won the biggest game of the year.
4. I want to thank Angie from Sew Crafty blog who let me know that I am the winner of the Happy Cyber Monday giveaway. I am doing the happy dance tonight. I now have the money to buy hubby a wonderful present.
5. Now, it is Sunday morning, and we are rushing to get ready to go to church to worship. Our church is miles away, but my husband’s son is the pastor. I am proud of his accomplishments.
6. We have a great Christmas season to look forward to. Here is my new Christmas tree awaiting ornaments:
Winning prizes and winning football games…hard to beat that kind of week! looks like your making a very nice transition from Thanksgiving into the Christmas season!
nice tree.
I know the games are great. I am amazed our Gamecocks won by such a good margin. It was a nail-biter right until the last quarter of the game.
What a cute one year old that grandbaby of yours is! And the cake! Awesome. Who made it?
Congrats on the win of the giveaway. It’s always fun to win something like that.
I have very little done or even planned for this Advent season. Ah well. It will get done.
Have a lovely afternoon!
My daughter-in-law ordered it from a local cake decorator. She said she found the actual idea on Pinterest and gave it to the decorator. It was a fun party.
Your grandson is adorable & I love that cake. Gotta love college football, especially all the rivalry games this past weekend!
I really like the cute monkey cake!
I loved it a lot too that is why I featured it. Thanks.
Awwww I love the cake and the smile from Seth – SOOOO adorable 😀
Happy weekend, and glad you’ve been having such a wonderful time. Looking forward to hearing how you might ‘pay it forward’. I’ve been thinking the same but different kinds of thoughts 🙂
I have been thinking about the Philippines a lot lately. We have at least one family on this hop and one on Two Shoes Tuesday from the Philippines. What can we do for these bloggers? They are already have my prayers. 😉
What a cute cake–and of course, your grandson is adorable, too!
thanks so much Kristi. Family makes life so special.
