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!!!!

Thank you to everyone who came! I had a blast and baby girl is going to be sooo SPOILED!!!!

We have baby bedding!

I have been stressing over our baby bedding and today I finally decided I needed to make a decsion and stick with it. This is what Ms. Cawood will be sleeping in.... see pic below. One difference- her monogram will be sCp. I am also doing the pink polka dots on the right and left instead of green. WHOOOO HOOOO!!! Thanks to my sweet Aunt Beth for buying this for our baby girl!!!!

bedding from: polkatotdesigns.com

And her room- pink of course with white bead board

It's a GIRL!!!!

Shall we CATCH up!

I know, I know. I have been MIA. I thought I would quit the blog for a while but you all voiced your opinions and I am now BACK! The true reason--- I am lazy and haven't been downloading pictures and I am super busy! Ya, ya.. we all are.

So Whitney came to visit during LABOR DAY! Um that was over a month a go. We had fun hanging on the lake, eating sushi (in our bathing suits), and going to the Clemson game. I so wish she would just move here!!! We had so much fun and acted like we were back in college. Why is it that some friends just cause you to think you are 21 again? My kidneys hurt after she left :)

We started out our Saturday by going to the ESSO club before the game. You have to... its tradition.

Then we ventured over to Brent and Whitney Comer's tailgate. I look like a whale in my pics with them so they are not being posted.

Oh and then we saw Drew! He was working and hadn't seen me sport the cowboy boots. Again... Whitney brought out old days for me. I use to wear them with tight jeans but this arrrss hasn't seen tight jeans in a long time! Drew about had a heart attack when he saw me in boots!
We got to our seats and Drew and Roger followed us....

Then we looked down and Drew was on the field. He never stays in one place long. (He has his head down, bottom middle screen. )

We ended our weekend with brunch downtown at Soby's. I had the best time ever. Thanks again Fatty! That is the awful name Whitney and I have called each other since high school.

The next weekend Drew and I headed to GA to root the SC Gamecocks on.

The next morning I was off to Miami. Those pics coming soon!
