Go Tigers!

Well, I didn't cheer for them but at least two people I know did. Last weekend, we went to the Orange and White Clemson Spring Game. It was a fun, family football game. Since the game was free and low key (no real opponents) it was a great way to introduce Josh to football.

We left Saturday afternoon for Pendelton, SC to visit Jason's anut and uncle. I had hope the kids would take naps in the car, but this didn't happen so we decided to take Arlene up on her offer and keep Rachel. It was nice having special time with Josh. I enjoy special outings with each kid ever now and then so that we or I can focus just on them and make them feel extra special. Rachel and I have had some fun coffee dates but not as many with Josh.

We didn't stay for the whole game but stayed long enough for Josh to enjoy it, practice holding hands and smiling to people, meet the tiger, and more. I thought for a minute or two during the game that Josh was going to fall asleep on me, but curiosity kept him awake.




The rest of the weekend was great! We enjoyed visiting the cows on their farm, spending time with cousins, eating great food, and lastly the short drive home. This trip made me wish we lived closer to grandparents. A 1.5 hour drive verses a 3.5 drive would be nice, but then again it could be worse. All in all, it was great to get away!
