dresses, raincoats, & dawgs...

it's Saturday in Athens! We walked 1.7 miles in a torrential downpour to cheer on our Bulldogs! It was an exciting game, even though the score shouldn't have been so close against Arizona State! We won with Green's field goal block and Walsh's field goal with 2 seconds left on the clock! A great day to live in Athens! Still ringing water out of my dress.

my AWK photo assignment...

...downtown Athens... friends helping me search for shots for class... 
awk. 
"Hi can I take your picture for class?"
"Sorry if this is awkward... no can I get all your information so I can ID you on my photo?"
our attempt at chasing down some backpackers... they ran away!

This Love is Crazy.

"I knew God wanted all of me, yet I feared what complete surrender to Him would mean. Trying harder doesn't work for me. Slowly I've learned to pray for God's help, and He has become my greatest love and desire."

I finished reading Crazy Love on the bus this morning. It's been my bus read for the last few weeks. I can't express how much this book has convicted, challenged and encouraged me to really live my faith. 

Where do you want to be when He comes back? What do you want to be doing? Really... 

I want to live like the obsessed, not lukewarm.

A great book:

:fearless:

sang some T.Swift on my drive home Saturday night... thought it was appropriate with all the rain we've been getting in GA! 

There's somethin' 'bout the way the street looks when it's just rained
There's a glow off the pavement, you walk me to the car
And you know I wanna ask you to dance right there
In the middle of the parking lot, yeah

We're drivin' down the road, I wonder if you know
I'm tryin' so hard not to get caught up now
But you're just so cool, run your hands through your hair
Absent-mindedly makin' me fall

And I don't know how it gets better than this
You take my hand and drag me headfirst, fearless
And I don't know why but with you I dance
In a storm in my best dress, fearless

So baby drive slow 'til we run out of road
In this one horse town, I wanna stay right here
In this passenger seat, you put your eyes on me
In this moment, now capture it, remember it

'Cause I don't know how it gets better than this
You take my hand and drag me headfirst, fearless
And I don't know why but with you I'd dance
In a storm in my best dress, fearless

IT'S SATURDAY, SATURDAY, SATURDAY!!!

Our Dawgs are finally back and playing between the hedges! Saturday night under the lights... with 90,000 of our closest friends! 

The day started with game day business at CFA Beechwood, record breaking hour! I worked drivethru play with a ref jersey on (one response: "Who are you? Are from Hibbett Sports? Why are you taking our order?). 

Putting on some red and black dresses... we were ready to walk to campus from MC's house! It was nice that everything was chill... no rushing! 

Myers to North Campus we saw friends and tailgates. Oh so many people. We camped out a tailgate on North for a little while. Three of us went walking to see someone else and I ran into some favorites! The boys are back in town! One found me a hot daag and then we had to say goodbye and left them to watch the game on a TV. :( Sorry friends!

The new ticket system wasn't terrible, we sat in the student section with the band. We did have to get to the stadium supper early. 

KICKOFF TIME! The GameCocks scored way to early... head in hands... "Not again guys..." Then 100 yard kickoff return for touchdown by Georgia's Brandon Boykin!! A little bit later when Boykin got an interception we said, "Ok now they've hit the on switch!" :) We didn't play without mistakes and actually fell in the polls, but it was an exciting football game that wasn't over until the last few seconds of the game!

One of my pet peeves is when fans leave before the end of ball game! This one was too close for people to leave... love it! Saturday in Athens!!
