Media guide

Recently, we had pictures taken for the Basketball media guide. We didn't find out until a few days before the pictures were to happen, so I had very limited time to make three Clemson dresses. My idea for these dresses were to have the fabric match, but have each girl wear a different style. They loved it! Whew! I spent three days making three dresses...they would have worn them regardless of whether they liked them;) This whole photo session took roughly 5 minutes...in and out. Not too bad...

I think we started off strong and then it all went downhill from there for the girls.

What??! Smile?! Nope, deer in headlight look is so in style...

aaaaaand, we are through...

Well, At least we got some Clemson pictures. We will probably be the only family in the media guide who looks a little tired of smiling;) Oh well...

Clemson Football

Ove the past few weekends, we've been able to enjoy some Clemson football games/tailgating as a family. We were so excited for the season to start, and boy did the tigers start off with a bang! What a great first 3 wins we've had! And we have definitely enjoyed the celebrating. I've compiled a bunch of iPhone pictures that were taken around football game weekends:) 

Watching the parade the night before THE big game against Georgia. The girls LOOOVED the parade:)

All decked out and ready to tailgate and see ESPN:)

This is the best we can get...they were ready for some football!

Everyone out showing our tiger pride to ESPN

I think this suits MC...wild child

We rode the bus back from Clemson and the girls thought that was the best part of their day;)

sitting proud:)

Andy and I came back later that night to see the Clemson-Georgia game...and man was it a game!!!

Our tickets are almost right at the field, so we got to see all the hype before they left to go run down the hill

GAME TIME!

The next weekend we were back into game-mode and ready to cheer our tigers on to another win:)

Me and my girls!

giving daddy some love:)

MC had the best ride around:)

We can't wait to go to another game to cheer on our Tigers! The season has started out wonderful and we look forward to keeping the wins rolling in:)
GO TIGERS!

Ballet

The girls have been talking about ballet, ballerinas, dancing, and twirling F-O-R-E-V-E-R. We finally found a class that fit into our family schedule and signed the girls up. After the extreme excitement of getting our ballet clothes (and tap shoes), the day finally came when they could actually put on their ballet leotards, tights and shoes. Oh my goodness, you would have thought they had just been invited by Cinderella to her castle for a ball...the excitement was through the roof! Now, Alley is the oldest by a year and also the tallest by a head, but since she's never taken ballet before (and I needed them in the same class), they let her be apart of the 3-4 year old class. Let me tell you how cute and wild those girls are!! Here are some pictures I was able to take on the first day last week.

My girls happily volunteered to be the first in every single thing they did:)

the young ones watching and waiting for their turn next year. The only way to keep these two girls in their strollers was to feed them huge bags of goldfish and give them stickers:) I am still finding stickers all over everything;)

taking directions...or if you're Kendall, watching yourself in the mirror and doing your own thing;)

Overall the girls absolutely love ballet and tap! I am glad we were able to get them in the same class and that they are both doing well. I can't wait to see what the next few months will be like...I'm already having a hard time getting their leotards off them and washed...I'm off to the consignment shop to buy out all their leotards;)
