Work+School+Church+Gator Football=My Life

So it's that time of year again.  Time for school to start, church activities to get busier, and most importantly, time for Gator Football!!!

I am taking a 4 credit hour class this semester on top of working 40 hours a week.  I'm also the head cook at church and am responsible for planning, cooking, and cleaning up after 2 meals each week, plus the tailgating festivities for home football games.  That in itself will keep me busy enough.  But, my most favorite part of the Fall is Gator Football.

I love me some Gators, but I love the opportunity to have my niece and nephew during the games even more.  Don't get me wrong, I thoroughly enjoy going to the games, but that's not always an option.  I have decided (ever since Jay was born and I got to keep him during that first football season) that I would gladly trade a place in The Swamp for having those kids hanging out with me!

I feel that I miss out so much on their lives since I live 3 hours away from them.  And although I make it home often to spend time with them, we bond so much more when the rest of the family is away cheering on the Gators. ;)  I have some fun stuff for Jay this season (including a Pillow Pet and some Toy Story 3 coloring books) and am looking forward to spending more time with Miss Lily.  Hopefully, we will even get to have Ethan over so all three kids can play together.  I promise to post pictures through out the season and who knows, I may even make it to a game or two.

Go Gators!!!
