Weekending it.

These are the famous arches at UGA

downtown Athens is amazing.








this place is dangerously good.

I know he's mine, but seriously, look at those eyes.
sweet tea and two chilli dogs later...
Enjoying a frosted orange....yuck..that dirty finger is black paint and not dirt, just in case you're wondering.
No problems getting the plates clean today!


Our oldest son had basketball practice this morning, so the rest of us enjoyed downtown Athens.
I'm not gonna lie, this is one of the most awesome college towns in the South.
We walked around on North campus and about made our kids barf while we told them how we met.
..for the one hundreth time.

When we picked Luke up from practice, we headed to eat at The Varsity.
This place is kind of a "monument" in Athens...the food is perfectly and deliciously greasy. 

They are known for their frosted orange's and their chilli cheese dogs.
I managed to get down two of those dogs.
I don't think I need to wonder why I can't ever lose those stubborn few pounds.
Two chilli cheese dogs...GEEZ LOUISE.

We're heading to watch the UGA/FL game with some friends...
I'm going to refrain from talking smack about the Florida Gators, but oh, how I hope we win!
GOOOOOOOOO DAWGS!!!

This is my idea of the perfect Fall day.
What is your weekend looking like?
