Ballard=Trouble! I had to get these great bar stools for the new place too! 

Square dancing at the farm

Ok...so I do realize that you probably wanted house pics more than anything, and I have some...but Luke and I are heading down on the 5th of November, and I plan to get pics of every room and do before then after shots as we go about fixing things up and making it our real home away from our rental home. So just hold on for now and I'll post some after that weekend. Here is a sneak peak at one of our amazing views.

Past Months

So much has been going on lately. So much in fact that I haven't even had time to blog about it. This blog is going to be pretty boring since I'm not able to post all the pics I want to. However, I'll do a picture only blog to follow this up.
Luke and I finished up the month of September in Raleigh celebrating the wedding of Luke's buddy Chad. It was beautiful and such a fun town to visit if you haven't before.
We've spent a lot of fall weeekends at the family farm. The second ever annual barn dance was held on October 8th, and was a HUGE success again this year.
Finally Luke and I made it back to the Plains for the Auburn vs. Florida game. Both teams looked pretty sorry, but I was SO EXCITED for another WIN. The future is looking bright AU peeps.
This weekend we have another wedding(go figure), but it's close to home, so we can't complain.
In other super HUGE news...I cut 5 inches of my hair, and Luke and I bought our first house. Yes I do think not posting the pics is pretty evil, but I'll try and do that this weekend.
So...I just wanted to give everyone a quick update and promise that I haven't forgotten my long lost blog friends.
Be BACK SOON!

Clemson Tailgate

So...I'm sad about the Tigers ending their amazing streak of wins, but so proud to be an AUBURN TIGER! I really am so impressed with our young new talent already playing this year, and very hopeful for the future of AU football. Our defense needs some serious work (MR. Roof I'm talking to YOU), but I think we'll be just fine. WAR EAGLE PEOPLE!
This weekend Luke and I drove up to Clemson for the tigers to take on the tigers. My cousin Tyler is a coach this year for Clemson, so we were a tailgate divided. My Aunt Shellie and cousin Sarah drove all the way from Oklahoma to see Tyler and tailgate with us. Here are some pictures of the fabulous day. I wish I could have gotten some up close photos of all the yummy food and what not, but I just flat out forgot. Oh...Lisa and I were on TV too!! The CBS Bham news crew came around and asked us for an interview about our tailgate. Let me know if you live in Bham and saw us yesterday.

Dirt Road Anthem

This weekend we hit the dirt roads of Alabama with new and old friends. We spent a full day wondering trails and traversing some crazy terrain. I'm not going to lie and say it was all peaches. I definitely got pretty scared a time or twelve, but I was with an excellent group of (basically professional) 4-wheelers (one being my husband). We did have a large group and a paramedic with us, so I felt pretty safe even with the seriously steep mountains. It was a full day of mud sling fun and beautiful views. I took a ton of pictures that you can check out on my FB page.
I also wanted to say that I start my new job with Lockheed Martin on September 12th. I can't wait to finally get there and get to work. It's been a long process with all of the background checking and pre work requirements. Once I start I'm not sure when or how often I'll be able to blog, but I'll try and keep up. Happy Monday Everyone...I'm sure I might soon realize once I start working again, that there is no such thing as Happy Monday, but for now there is!!

Glad I had on snake boots!

The group!

So BUSY

Things have been downright crazy lately. Luke and I left for Savannah last Thursday night after work for a day of house hunting in Savannah. Just to clarify...we are just looking for a home base (not moving there at this point in our life)
After a day of house hunting Luke left to join in a bachelor party for an Auburn friend. Saturday evening I picked up Luke for his 10 year high school reunion. Crazy huh!! It was fun, and apparently Luke hasn't changed a bit.

The only picture we snagged on our way to the reunion

Sunday I headed to Sumter, SC to help my friend Anna Mo. with wedding stuff. We were VERY successful on Monday finding THE DRESS, and narrowed down the selections of venues to three. She's getting married next June in Columbia, SC. I would LOVE to post a pic of how beautiful her dress is, but you know that's against the rules.
So...I'm finally home yesterday after a pit stop and lunch with my family in Augusta. Today's mission is to finish up the rehearsal dinner slideshow I'm in charge of for my friends Jamie and Scott's wedding this weekend. I'm super excited and will hopefully have tons of pictures to show later.
One last thing I guess I should throw out...Today I accepted an offer from Lockheed Martin! http://www.lockheedmartin.com I'm officially back in the supply chain world. They said it will take a full month to complete my background check and all that jazz (military freight), but this time next month I'll be a full time working lady again. I'm pretty excited!

Let Them Eat CAKE!

By them I mean me! I know it's not good for my body, but cake sure does feed the soul. This weekend my sister Katie dropped by for a visit. We laid by the pool, baked a cake from scratch that seriously dirtied every dish in my kitchen (so thankful to have a dishwasher), dined at a delish local Newnan joint, and just had some good 'ol fashion fun.

2 Years!

Today marks our 2 year wedding anniversary. Luke and I celebrated this past weekend, and I've decided to make this one HUGE blog post of pictures!
Have I ever mentioned I'm the luckiest girl in the world? Well...I'm pretty sure I am. I met the perfect guy, at the turns out perfect time, and fell perfectly in LOVE. As luck would have it; I met Luke two days before graduating from Auburn and moving to Atlanta. We were one of those love at first sight couples. The moment I walked into the room and saw him was the moment I HAD to have him (he says it was the same for him..Ha). I guess the rest is really history. Luke and I've had a wonderful history so far, and I know a great future to come. I really do love Luke more deeply and truly than the day I married him.

Toasting to Forever!

This weekend we went low key with our 2 year anniversary. We headed to the farm (where there is no cell service) to connect! We cooked great meals, laid out under the stars, wondered for hours through the woods on 4 wheelers, and had a blast. Saturday we headed to Auburn where it all began to eat lunch at one of my favorite places, and take in the ever changing Auburn before the crazy of football season starts.
