Knoxville Baby Shower

On November 1st my good friends Ann and Cyndie threw me a baby shower in Knoxville, TN. I have a very close group of girlfriends that I have met through the years while working in the design community. We have all seemed to bring in another friend or two so our once small circle has grown to about 20 girls! We have the best time together; yearly Girls Cabin Weekends and many happy hours! The one thing I miss now that I am living in Greenville are these girls! We use to hang out 3 times a week and I miss them soooo much. I am thankful I still call on Knoxville and get to see them at least every couple of months. I love you girls...thank you so much for throwing me such a wonderful shower!

Ann and Cyndie... the hostesses

Ann is a designer and Cyndie now sells tile with me. She once was a designer. They didn't leave out a detail at all. I loved all their unique touches.

We played the darn poopy diaper game again!

South Carolina Football!

It was 70 and beautiful last Saturday when Drew and I headed to Columbia to watch the Gamecocks battle the FL Gators. We had a great time despite the bad outcome.

It was wounded soldier day... the team's uniforms were done with camo!

Joel and Tracy... our good friends and seatmates!

Charleston...

Every Memorial Day Drew and I go with my rents to Wild Dunes for a week. Being that it is now November I thought it would be a treat to post the pictures from our last trip SIX months ago. Actually I finally downloaded pics from my "good camera".... None from the beach, most from Charleston!

Jeff and Caroline who will be moving after our 2010 trip :(

The cute rents

Me and hubs and the rest of our crazy fam have a....

DATE!!! No, not a fancy go out to dinner, drink wine, stay in a fabulous hotel kind of date. We have a birthday date for our sweet baby girl. December 27 she will be born! A mere 2 days after Jesus' birthday and my dad's and my late grandfathers. We are so blessed! Let the countdown begin.

Oh and being that her original due date was December 28, then moved to January 10 after a late term ultrasound. You GO BY THE FIRST ULTRASOUND PEOPLE!!! My guess you see is December 15. We shall see!

Oh my, oh my I am FINALLY going to be a MOM! WHOOO HOOOO!!!!! Oh and Drew will be a DAD and Jackson and Tyrone will have a little sister. :)

hmmmm? what is the world is this thing?

The Cawood Bowl!

Last weekend we headed to TN to find out who would have the lucky day in our family- Drew or myself??? TN vs SC.... The biggest game of the year in the Cawood house!!! Luckily for me the VOLS won!!!! 4-1 by the way for the four years we have been together...WHOO HOOO!!! We had a great time staying at my dads house in the mountains. Our good friends Jeff and Caroline stayed with us so they got to witness the Cawood rivalry as well. Thank goodness my dad and Sara are Vol fans so I wasn't too outnumbered. Rena and Seth met us for tailgating before. Great times were had by all... well until the Gamecocks lost and Drew had a few choice words to scream out as we were leaving the stadium. :)

Nationwide Golf Tourney

I have to give a shout out to the hubs! In this crazy economy he has continued to GROW his business by leaps and bounds. I cannot get over how successful his business has become in the short 4 years we have been together. Drew landed the Nationwide Golf Tournament for the next 3 years at Daniel Island, SC (my future home one day I hope :)). Drew worked about 30 people but I just took pictures of the cutest staff member in the EPI shirt! Congrats Drew! I am soooo proud of you!!!!
