So 2013 is obviously not the year for the blog. It's ok! I think the blog understands. </div>

Sometimes things in life just get like this.... </div>

....and if you tried to add one more thing like blogging, things could get out of hand. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
(As a side note, I want to meet the man that figured out how to tie all those tires in that truck. I feel like he would be the kind of guy who would be good at figuring out a rubix cube, and those people intrigue me.)</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
Anyways, I decided on Tuesday that I was going have a goal this month of posting every day in May. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
There is nothing I like more than to make goals I could never possible achieve. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
I do think the theme is catchy so maybe there is some hope. However, I did forget about the whole thing until about an 10pm last night and now it's May 2nd, so things are already starting out kind of dicey. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
But it's ok, we're going for it! </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">

I decided I'd begin with a catch-up of sorts, compliments of all the random, blurry pictures on my iPhone. </div>

When we last met, I had just had my appendix out. I am all healed up now and have successfully started my life appendix-free. Life feels about the same, except I now have significantly less money.</div>

Soon after my surgery, I hit the road for a weekend in Columbus. I sponsored my sister-in-law on a retreat called Walk to Emmaus, and went up on Thursday to see her off. There should be laws against one couple having so much cuteness. </div>

Since I would also be picking her back up on Sunday, I ended up just staying in Columbus and had the absolute sweetest weekend with my brother. It was so fun for us to have a brother/sister weekend just the two of us. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">

It actually is one of my favorite weekends of all time for so many reasons, including the fact that he likes to make midnight runs to the grocery store for brownies. </div>

On the way home from Columbus, I came up on a license check. The officer looked at mine for a long time, and I figured he was just thinking GOOD GRIEF THAT IS AN UGLY PICTURE. I placed no blame on him for his valid feelings and waited patiently. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
But, it turns out he was looking at the expiration date and reminded me that it was about expire. Hallelujah! I have waited so long for this day. I don't know how Honey Boo Boo's mom got pictured on my license, but I was glad to see her go.</div>

Wedding TRAVESTY: I did not get a piece of wedding cake. Saving grace: Marsha had cupcakes at the house. After downing a #1 Combo from Wendy's at 11pm, I ate one of the cupcakes and the icing off of another. I will always remember the experience fondly. </div>

We had a nice relaxing time doing nothing, riding the golf cart around the island, soaking up some beach time, and eating. What I have just described are the pillars of maintaining a happy life. We realized we were pretty much created to live at Fripp.<br />

Thankfully I found some that did not glow in the dark. And since I had not bough new tennis shoes since the 8th grade, my feet are especially happy. I try not to buy more than one pair over the course of a 16 year period. <br />

I really liked this doctor for reasons not limited to the fact that his first name was Jean-Claude. Doesn't that just sound like the kind of bad-A guy you want slicing you open?<br />
<br />
He's actually a mellow, calm doctor and made me feel at so ease that night of surgery. I also really liked my anesthesiologist, who <i>really</i> put me at ease if you know what I mean. I loved him as well, for obvious reasons. (I got nothing but love for the dealer of the drugs.)<br />
<br />
Dr. Jean-Claude took a look at me on Friday and said everything seemed great recovery-wise. I was ordered take it easy and not to pick up anything over 10lbs. He also restricted me from swimming in ponds until my incisions heal. <br />
<br />
Apparently I look more south-Georgian than I actually am. <br />
<br />
I got out and about a little that day and had lunch with Moesha. Then it was home to meet up with my aunt Deanna and her little sidekick Jayce who had come into town to prove that laughter is the best medicine.<br />
<br />
Even though I was still walking around old lady style, the show had to go on. Daddy was in a play and Mama, Marsha, and I went to see him Friday night! He did great as always!<br />
<br />
Plus, I had on real pants! It was a big night for both of us.<br />
<br />
Awesome iPhone shot of the marquee. I blame the drugs.<br />

Jacye was so excited to see Uncle Alan perform. Uncle Alan is like, the man. Jayce also was mesmerized by the orchestra and sat like a little angel the whole service. His hat made the men jealous and the ladies swoon.<br />

After church we had lunch, took naps, and then went for an afternoon dip in the pond. :-)<br />

<br />
Then, somewhere in the back of my mind, I had this faint memory of already having done that once before. <br />
<br />
Guys - what in the world? I guess I took a blog break?!<br />
<br />
Things have been pretty run-of-the-mill around here, really. Still working hard and playing hard. I'm afraid the lack of blogging has not been in place of lots of fun events and no time to document. I fear it may be that I am getting <i>less</i> fun and more boring and losing the ability to write long stories about un-entertaining things. <br />
<br />
That being said, there have definitely been good times and there is much left undocumented (a little thing called Christmas, for example), but we're going to start off with more recent events.<br />
<br />
I guess my body thought if it rebelled a little bit, it could get some facetime on the blog. So last Sunday morning, I woke up with intense stomach pains that lasted all that day - to the point that I didn't even want to open my computer to catch up on any shows (obviously, very serious). The pain was unrelenting and unlike anything I'd experienced, and it lasted all Sunday night and into Monday.<br />
<br />
On Monday I thought it had eased off a little and debated going to the doctor. But, upon WebMD's advice to "seek professional help immediately" (after I entered in that the pain was in the right lower abdomen), I decided perhaps a doctor's visit was in order. <br />
<br />
That visit led to me the hospital for a CT scan which then led to the diagnosis of a burst appendix, which then led me to an emergency Appendectomy at 7:30pm Monday night.<br />
<br />
Just another manic Monday.<br />

This was right after they wheeled me to my room, post-surgery. I was greeted by Mama and Daddy of course, and also Marsha and Sean. Moesha snapped a few pictures which are a little rough and in black and white because...yikes. I am holding my dad's phone because he decided it was a good time to try and figure out why his phone won't send emails (???).<br />
<br />
Parents. We just have to love them.<br />

I also found out that while they went in for my appendix, they also found a baby in there!<br />

Because the surgery was so late at night, I stayed over in the hospital (on the pediatric floor, hence the baby cage). Nurse Debbie did a great job and I was very well taken care of. The surgery had gone off without a hitch, and by the next morning I was walking around (albeit like an old lady) and even felt like eating a little something for the first time in 2 days. <br />

I had to document this heavenly moment.<br />
<br />
Poor Becca is the queen of surgery, having had her gallbladder removed earlier in the year and now her tonils (plus surgery on her nose at the same time to fix a deviated septum).<br />
<br />
I wouldn't have survived all that, I'm just letting you know.<br />
<br />
I couldn't let her have all the fun so I had my appendix out, however, that is where it ends. I'm not following in her footsteps. But I will always be the first to rejoice when someone can eat sandwiches again!<br />
<br />
She also brought me flowers because it is her love language.<br />

I think I failed to post Daddy's videos for the past couple of weeks. THE SHAME. I will likely go back and post all the week's videos that I missed, but like our men in blue - I am forging ahead.<br />

This week, our boys are way way way up there in North Dakota taking on North Dakota State in the semi-finals. Excitement! STRESS! Excitement!<br />
<br />
I don't have a lot of words for what you are about to see. Just know that the further we get into the playoffs, the crazier my father becomes.<br />

November's visit was all about this... <br />

But last weekend's trip was for an entirely different purpose. I handed in my blue and white pom poms for these babies...<br />
<br />

<a href="http://www.marshahaganphotography.blogspot.com/">Marsha</a> and I had the honor of taking wedding pictures for a dear friend from Statesboro who now lives in Athens. Road trips with Moesha are always fun, and this one was extra special as it landed us in the city where this cute blonde girl (pictured here in the middle of a Kerr Brothers sandwich) can be found during the school year. <br />

Marlee attends the University of Georgia, and we went down Thursday night to get some extra time with our fave little bulldawg. Mar Mar is a ZTA at UGA so as an added bonus, Marsha and I were thrilled to be offered the guest room at the ZTA House for our first night in Athens!<br />
<br />

Marsh has stayed at the ZTA house before, but this was my first time and it did not disappoint! As a ZTA guest, you will be greeted with a house full of sweet girls, a wonderful and hospitable House Mom (Hey Ms. Becky!), delicious meals, and even a snack closet like this one at your disposal.<br />
<br />

Needless to say, Ms. Becky and the staff take <i>very</i> good care of these Zeta ladies.<br />

<br />
In conclusion, Hotel ZTA is definitely the way to go. :-)<br />
<br />
One of the many perks of our stay was seeing the house decorated so beautifully for Christmas! We were in awe! I took a bunch of pictures and told Ms. Becky I would post them and share the ZTA Christmas love. <br />
<br />
The whole thing was straight out of some Sorority House edition of Southern Living. It all started at the front door. <br />

Clearly, this is the most beautifully decorated house in the history of sororities! Ms. Becky and her team did such a great job! <br />

She enlisted a few folks to help make her dreams come true. Her friend Jenaynay was there to offer assistance, of course, and then there was Aunt Tricia.<br />

They conned her into cleaning off the counter for them. "Do we just put soap on the counter and then put the flour ON the soap?" they asked. (Bahahaha - sucka)<br />
<br />
Tricia cleaned the counter like a boss and then helped them find the rolling pin and get the counter prepped with flour.<br />

This little hunk of love spent his Thanksgiving in Florida with his other side of the family, but it turns out the Boro is right between Atlanta (his home) and Florida (his holiday destination).<br />
<br />
This geographical scenario is definitely to our benefit because it means the little guy stopped in on his way down to Florida at the beginning of the week AND on his way back home at the end of the week. <br />
<br />
Every week should be book-ended by Jayce. <br />
<br />
There wasn't a whole lot of time to do much with this smart little character, but I think we all know when you are 2 - there are few things more fun than bathtime. So a rub-a-dub dubbing he went!<br />

Jayce is not only adorable, but always thinking about his sugar-addict family members. He made these with his Gam-ma in FL and brought some to share with his fan club. <br />

If you are thinking it is just too cute to eat, you obviously don't know us at all. You will find nary a person in this house who spares sugar for any reason. <br />
<br />
But it really was cute. Just like it's little baker. <br />

Debbie, in particular, can be easily won over with anything even remotely cake-like. Although I am pretty sure Jayce is in no immediate danger of needing to earn his love. (Nephew obsession is a real thing, y'all.)<br />
<br />

While Jayce and Deb bonded over sugar, Jayce and Alan also shared a personal moment when Big Alan did a torch-like pass of his coveted karaoke microphone. <br />
<br />

He wants to be just like Uncle Alan. One day when he's grown with children of his own, I feel sure he will come home at Christmastime with a "present for the family." Just like Alan did with that karaoke machine all those many years ago. <br />
<br />
Thanks again, Daddy, for that selfless gift. <br />

<br />
It turns out that my boss is really into letting us off early from time to time, and she <i>really</i> enjoys doing so on the day before holidays. She was out on Wednesday, but emailed us that morning to let us know we had to leave at noon to "start our holiday early."<br />
<br />
I am very big on respecting and following authority figures, so I complied without hesitation. <br />
<br />
Getting off early gave me time to run a few errands, pick up some lunch, and head out to the Hagans for some fun.<br />
<br />
The normal Hagan gang was there but with the additions of Justin who has been in town for the week and BeccaBrown who was stopping by to play before she headed to ATL for the holiday. <br />
<br />
Ever since Marlee got home last week for Thanksgiving Break, this has been a familiar scene.<br />
<br />

<br />
Those who settle Catan together, stay together. <br />
<br />
We also found a box Valentine's Day Funfetti cookies to make! (Holiday spirit and what not.) <br />
<br />

<br />
Later that evening I left the Hagans and headed to the Tysons to await the arrival of Matthew and Larsen. They were joining our Holiday Gang which consisted of Big Al, Deb, DD (Deb's sister), and Ashley (Alan's brother).<br />
<br />
While we waited, this happened.<br />
<br />

<br />
Cream cheese, cheddar cheese, mayo, bacon. So much to be thankful for.<br />
<br />
Matthew and Larsen arrived safely and we all hung around the kitchen talking until it was time to go to bed.<br />
<br />
The next morning, Thanksgiving was in full swing and I found these ladies involved in a very pinteresting activity.<br />

In our family, the boys reign in the kitchen. My dad had taken care of the bulk of the menu, but Matthew decided to throw a dessert into the mix.<br />

Orginally we were going to do a Thanksgiving late lunch, but we switched our eat-time around to a dinner time hour. Matthew, Daddy, and Ashley struck up an afternoon golf game which made them very happy. <br />

This also made Larsen, Mama, DD, and I happy because it gave us time (pre-food coma) to catch a movie (a long-standing Tyson holiday tradition).<br />

As always, my compliments to the most amazing chef I know. I have no idea how he does it, but I vow to live my life reaping the benefits every time he does. :-)<br />

During the holidays, there is so much to be grateful for.<br />
<br />
The time off of work is great. <br />
<br />
The food is great.<br />
<br />

But, of course, the best part is always the people.<br />

Due to our many visitors, we currently have a daybed set up in the dinning room. Matthew found this to be particularly convenient at the conclusion of his meal.<br />

After dinner we cleaned up, the sistas took a trip to the red box, and then we had a visit from Jeffrey (our fave Texan)! The rest of the night was spent being thankful for memories of field trips/country music videos gone by, you tube videos, and intense laughter.<br />
<br />
And eventually....we were all like this.<br />

I could post after post about what I'm thankful for this year. Family, friends, health, my job, and a million things in between. <br />
<br />
I think my mama summed it up perfectly in her blessing this year. And she said it best when she concluded with these sweet words to the One that gave it all...<br />
<br />
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: large;">"Dear Lord, this table overflows with thy abundant blessing. Let us always be aware that all gifts come from you, and may we serve your Heavenly will in everything we do."</span></div>

Every four years, our Eagles take on the Dawgs at Sanford Stadium. <br />
<br />
8 years ago, I cheered on the Eagles as young and spry college student at GSU. That year I loaded up my car and headed to Athens with these fun, spirited people:<br />

I took Friday off of work and Al, Deb, and I hit the familiar road to Athens around lunch. If only I could record what happens on a Tyson road trip...I'd be rich and could take my private jet right into Athens-Clark County airport for all future match-ups.<br />
<br />
Once we made it to Athens, my parents took to the downtown streets. I took to a different street...the one that leads to Target. I had some time to kill before meeting up with my very favorite thing I got out of my two years in Athens...my girl MEG! What a hottie. <br />
<br />

This girl and I clicked instantly back in 2006 and thank goodness we did so we could live through the next two years of education with some sliver of sanity. We kept the sanity alive by being SO completely hilarious together. We were like our own little stand-up show in the University of Georgia School of Social Work (or so we've been told).<br />
<br />
Megan picked me up, and after she extracted herself from my dead-grip hug ("I can't let go"), we took on the night 2007-style with Mexican food, lots of good conversation, a trip to Old Navy, and a night filled with laughing at ourselves and each other. I miss that girl!<br />
<br />
Saturday morning we were up and going early in order to tailgate for the 1:30 game!<br />
<br />
The weather was so incredibly perfect - sunny and chilly. Perfect football weather and perfect weather for walking through Athens to the tailgate. <br />
<br />

I was walking with Alicia, Matt, and Tom - and our route took us right by the stadium. <br />

Old roomies posing! Alicia and I were roommates for one year at GSU, and then we both came to UGA at the same time and got to be roommates again for those two years.<br />

It wasn't windy or anything. <br />
<br />
We made it to Myers Quad and the fun began! Lots of red, but sprinkles of blue representing. <br />

They gave me life and a love for those Georgia Southern Eagles. Their work here is done. <br />

We may have been miles and miles away from Paulson Stadium...but looking down at this, it sure felt like home. <br />

All the girls. You may notice a sprinkling of red and black amongst the vibrant, beautiful blue, white, and gold. It's okay. We're all friends here. <br />

Pretty soon it was time to make the hike back to the stadium! <br />
<br />
Obviously, our hearts belong completely to Paulson, but as my dad said - "You just about can't beat Sanford Stadium." In other words - we don't like you right now, Bulldawgs, but your little set-up here sure is purdy! <br />

I got to sit in my favorite stadium scenario. (In between my parents and behind Connie and Tom.)<br />
<br />
Conster had the pom flying high as the Eagles ran out. <br />

<br />
The game obviously had highs and lows and we watched and cheered and yelled and high-fived and yelled some more. <br />
<br />
Big Al watched intently as the Eagles did something great and amazing and beyond the expectations of all those in red and black.<br />

In the end, the Dawgs put a pretty good hurt on us, but as usual GSU showed up, made big and exciting plays, and have a lot to be proud of as they took on the number 4 team in the country. <br />

<br />
Right before the BIG App State game started this past Saturday, a fellow fan who sits next to us in the stands asked my dad how he was feeling.<br />
<br />
Big Al left little to the imagination when he shared this response:<br />
<br />
"I'm as nervous a dog trying to crap a peach seed."<br />
<br />
I think we all had some nerves/anxiety going into the game. Matthew decided to take it out on his homemade honey mustard.<br />
<br />

<br />
I remember the day I figured out that Honey Mustard was just honey and mustard mixed. It wasn't this past Saturday, but it wasn't as long ago as it should be. <br />
<br />
Depsite the nerves, it was exciting to pack up the food and drink and hit the road to the tailgate.<br />
<br />

Behind those ice chests was a spread full of many food items. While the anticipation of their deliciousness was overwhelming, I did share with all who would listen (like 1 person) that I felt like they were not properly secured enough in the back. I was assured they were fine.<br />
<br />
I mean what do I know? I'm just a logical person trying to make it in this world.<br />
<br />

<br />
Despite my fears (moving vehicle, multiple liquids sloshing around), everything made it in one piece and my car did not have to suffer stains and such from what I believed to be certain spillage. <br />
<br />
Onward to the tailgate! Where food was out of control. We could have lived under that tent and been well-fed for at least 2 months. <br />

Some people said they were too nervous to eat. Hmmm, what's that like? I pondered it as I continued to graze upon the goodness. <br />
<br />
The gnome was there gaurding everything. He brought a special addition him to tailgate as well. A little something for the Mountaineers. <br />

We had some November babies at the tailgate! <br />

I get worse and worse about taking pictures at these things but when Larsen and Matthew are in attendance I try to snap a few more than usual. You can never have two many pictures of navy-clad Tysons scattered in frames around one's house. <br />

We were very honored to have some new faces at the tailgate last week! Lewis and Brad (on the ends beside Deb and Conster) are from LRG, which has recently partnered with GSU lisencing (Deb and Connie's stomping ground). These nice fellows were in town earlier in the week for business and stuck around for the game! <br />

<br />
Lewis, Deb, Dr. Core (VP of Business and Finance at GSU and the awesome boss of Deb and Con), Connie, and Brad.<br />
<br />
It just so happens that Brad played for App State in college. I know! What a brave man for coming! We didn't give him too much grief and he was a very good sport for the jabs he did have to endure. :-) <br />
<br />
Meeting the team proved to be as fun as always! <br />

This was Larsen's inagural team greeting. She didn't have any fun at all.<br />

<br />
After the team comes, you can find the true fans by looking for the slap-happy red hands.<br />
<br />

<br />
I made sure to ask Pepaw what it was like to look in the mirror after all these years and still see such a handsome man. <br />
<br />
He said it was nice and he enjoys it. <br />
<br />
My bud Alex Brown stopped by on his way into the staidum to say hey and shake Alan Tyson's hand.<br />
<br />

<br />
AB is on the very top of the list of biggest GSU fans alive. So you can imagine how well he and Alan Tyson get along. Alex came by to share his great love for the Daddy's App State video. <br />
<br />
He said when he saw it Friday morning, he got so pumped that he jumped out of bed and head-butted his dog. HAHAHA. I'll laugh about that for years to come.<br />
<br />
Since I heard my dad start talking about "the crowd" on TUESDAY, I knew the sight up a stadium filling up would make him so happy. <br />
<br />

The parents all smiles. I feel bad for those two now....knowing what they were about to endure. <br />

<br />
Connie and her ladies! They have not missed a game (home or away) in like 20 years. They also give out tootsie pops at stressful moments, so there are many reasons to love them. <br />
<br />

<br />
Pepaw gazing out onto the field, full of hope and ready to do "The Pepaw" (patent pending) during good times and give high fives after touchdowns and excting plays. <br />
<br />

<br />
I will admit that there were some times of happiness, but mostly heartache as the refs got CRAY complete CRAY on several game-changing plays, the Eags had some rough times, and we ultimately fell to App State 31-28. <br />
<br />
After the game we did manage a few smiles for the love of family...<br />
<br />
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjTkFplimf8IKqydzP6mC9ISfG08mffcmAFJhVnfmbx0I4tqZOczap1Y-5lji1F_dAzED7Xv6Zp_XLgBpto1R1Pr2wJkAi98FbTj-5JlkaEIvQFbRVFQhe5Tx28xrGt64YdV63NGMOb6-_c/s1600/P1120768.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="480" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjTkFplimf8IKqydzP6mC9ISfG08mffcmAFJhVnfmbx0I4tqZOczap1Y-5lji1F_dAzED7Xv6Zp_XLgBpto1R1Pr2wJkAi98FbTj-5JlkaEIvQFbRVFQhe5Tx28xrGt64YdV63NGMOb6-_c/s1600/P1120768.jpg" width="640" /></a><br />
<br />
The love was real. The smiles were fake.<br />
<br />
However, despite the loss, the Eagles still managed to pull out a share of the SoCon Championship! <br />
<br />
Here is what Big Al has to say about last week and what's in store for Saturday's Homecoming match-up!<br />

The fists of those with blue blood clinch instantly at the mention of it. <br />
<br />
App State is rolling into town. We aren't keen on App State, I will go ahead and tell you. Generally speaking, I am sweet person. Agreeable. Unoffensive. A peacemaker, even.<br />
<br />
But even I get riled up just thinking about this rivalry. It's all in clean, football fun - sure. But it is a deep-seated rivalry that can get ugly quick...and usually does.<br />
<br />
And with it being such a time as this, I decided that we need to spice things up a little bit this week with Alan's Gameday Video. <br />
<br />
"I have a vision," I said to him in his office last week while we were filming Chattanooga's video.<br />
<br />
"Oh yeah?" he asked.<br />
<br />
"I think we should do App State's video....(pause for dramatic effect).....at Paulson."<br />
<br />
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEi-iQFSeR-H-CNAVHK3ZlEGtU5_-XUPKtVLrnV775NjV71wkEd-oN5YgFNC2Xq-TFnW2WYGsghCfrSDfua67xU6rXSfumYGAJW_OYI_3Y6Nus_DYU5nabk70WxivNskEioPwcMxX-El5bnY/s1600/appa7.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="480" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEi-iQFSeR-H-CNAVHK3ZlEGtU5_-XUPKtVLrnV775NjV71wkEd-oN5YgFNC2Xq-TFnW2WYGsghCfrSDfua67xU6rXSfumYGAJW_OYI_3Y6Nus_DYU5nabk70WxivNskEioPwcMxX-El5bnY/s1600/appa7.jpg" width="640" /></a><br />
<br />
And so we did!<br />
<br />
Because of the ever-present scheduling conflicts between Alan and myself, we ended up having to meet at the prettiest little stadium in America on a blustery Wednesday morning. <br />
<br />
Lest you think I am the only creative partner working on this set-up, I will go ahead and say that Daddy had the vision of shooting in two seperate - but widely recognizable locations - within Our House. <br />
<br />
The first being the bleachers. <br />
<br />
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEij79pujt8lw_t1l4zohdH7x-D1ZUhEGa3M19YfxmExJkkFxHognpD9EgHpuhbxCwPqPJHC9my-rMbBz-d06okOp4mm7NuKMnl8qsbJnqkaTE9U36ns44uK9y28VtHUa66pFBL9RaWJuPDv/s1600/appa1.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="480" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEij79pujt8lw_t1l4zohdH7x-D1ZUhEGa3M19YfxmExJkkFxHognpD9EgHpuhbxCwPqPJHC9my-rMbBz-d06okOp4mm7NuKMnl8qsbJnqkaTE9U36ns44uK9y28VtHUa66pFBL9RaWJuPDv/s1600/appa1.jpg" width="640" /></a><br />
<br />
We got set up, positioned AT, did a run through or two, and started in with the first couple of takes. <br />
<br />
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg1ZS9CgCDO6Qvv_VDCws53lZVvf4Wx1QbxL-z29qwQdCD598KcbV_Xs0BVeVk9eiDzEUo1ZBlHB7Xg0juMz3bBkABsZF5m78JMpE7MirdsR9-hnk6TcBGSO1SNZV81yrWstyRWpuecD6lw/s1600/appa3.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="480" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg1ZS9CgCDO6Qvv_VDCws53lZVvf4Wx1QbxL-z29qwQdCD598KcbV_Xs0BVeVk9eiDzEUo1ZBlHB7Xg0juMz3bBkABsZF5m78JMpE7MirdsR9-hnk6TcBGSO1SNZV81yrWstyRWpuecD6lw/s1600/appa3.jpg" width="640" /></a><br />
<br />
This is when we were happy and smiling and full of hope that everything would go off without a hitch. <br />
<br />
It's a fantasy world, but it's our fantasy world and we like to live in it for about 2 or 3 minutes before the inevitable happens and our sanity is tested.<br />
<br />
The sanity-stealing culprits this week were:<br />
<br />
1. The wind<br />
<br />
It whipped furiously around us causing me to wish that I dress appropriately for weather and causing Alan to ask me 10 times whether the camera is going to pick up the wind.<br />
<br />
YES, man! And after "hit the red button to record," I am all out of camera expertise so we best let it die down a bit.<br />
<br />
2. Lawn Mower #1<br />
<br />
Before Big Al could utter his famous "Hi Folks" for the second time, a lawn care specialist appeared atop the hill.....and atop his very loud riding mower.<br />
<br />
This caused Alan to utter his second most famous phrase - "You have GOT to be kidding me!"<br />
<br />
If you study this picture closely you will see a little man in the distance on his way to ask a certain lawn mower if he would mind giving us about 30 minutes.<br />
<br />

<br />
The sweetest little yard man ever said yes. Thank you again, kind sir!<br />
<br />
3. Buses, motorcycles, and clanging flag poles.<br />
<br />
It's really loud outside in the morning time, guys.<br />
<br />
4. Lawn Mower #2<br />
<br />
Just as soon as LM#1 puttered off, another one showed up. Apparently the grass at Paulson is out of control. <br />
<br />
"You have got to be KIDDING me!" (Sometimes he changes the emphasized word.)<br />
<br />
(Thankfully LM#2 quickly left for the other side of the hill where his motor could not be heard. I know my mental stability was greatly obliged.)<br />
<br />
4. The Talent himself.<br />
<br />
I don't know how my dad does what he does. He writes these things and they are so creative and so funny. And he memorizes them! I can't even remember a phone number 2 minutes after I call it. So I give him big props and am always impressed.<br />
<br />
But the man is not a one hit wonder, people. It takes quite a few takes before it's all said and done.<br />
<br />
So - after you add in the wind, the cold, LM#1, buses, motorcycles, clanging flag poles, LM#2, quite a few outtakes, and one frozen daughter....it made for a cray cray morning. <br />
<br />
But eventually we got the first half completed!<br />
<br />

I was happy despite my Rudolph nose, wind blown hair, and weird, frozen thumb. <br />
<br />
After Part One was wrapped, it was down to the field to shoot the next segment. <br />
<br />

Much like a team coming out of the locker room in the second half - Big Al was bringing out the big guns for Part Two. <br />
<br />
All with a little help from a friend....<br />

<br />
On the agenda:<br />
<br />
BA Football game (fun, but did not go as planned)<br />
Matthew in town (fun, but we missed Larsen!)<br />
GSU game (fun, but a nail biter)<br />
10 year high school reunion (fun, but say what old timer?)<br />
<br />
The BA game was a heartbreaker due to the other team scoring quite a few more points than our guys. But the Gators played hard, and I got the sweetest picture of the little Gator fan walking around with her great-grandaddy - so all was far from lost.<br />
<br />

After game huddle. I couldn't hear the coach, so I took pictures of my favorite gator.<br />

I finished the night off at El Sombrero with Marsha, Todd, and Tara. It was an interesting night of chips, salsa, and questions like: "If you could have an exotic animal for a week, what would it be?"<br />
<br />
Marsha - koala<br />
Jenna - elephant<br />
Todd - panda<br />
Tara - parrot<br />
<br />
You learn a lot about people when you ask ridiculous questions.<br />
<br />
I got home late, but Matthew was home and I joined him and Debbie in some late night laughing thanks to a familiar stand up DVD. When we find a good thing around here, we just keep on keeping on with it.<br />
<br />
Saturday morning we convened in the kitchen pre-game.<br />
<br />

I didn't get a good shot of the spread this time around, but here is some of the feast.<br />
<br />
Connie and I noted that there was a lot of meat represented at the tailgate on Saturday. Ribs, burgers, sausage, chicken, pigs in a blanket. And let's not forget the ever-present pork rinds. AT is in love with pork rinds this season.<br />

It was ATO reunion weekend, so Big Al had a bunch of his old buddies stop by! They were full of old college stories I am too young to hear.<br />

Speaking of reunions, my 10 year was later that night. I was so excited my sweet friend Joey (fellow 2002 grad and avid and loyal GSU fan) stopped by the tailgate! It was so fun catching with her and her husband. She lives in Nashville now but was in town for the big game and to reunite SHS style later that night.<br />

There was actually a lot of exciting things happening pre-game on Saturday. Our very own Conster spoke with The Big Guy about all the new happenings in GSU licensing. She was a pro and everyone wanted to either 1. buy GSU gear or 2. become a licensee after her talk.<br />
<br />

It was military appreciation day on Saturday. This meant that 1. the players wore really cool camoflouge jerseys and 2. people parachuted out of the sky bringing game ball, GSU flags, and such.<br />

It made me nervous, but it was extremely cool.<br />

Pepaw ready for the game to start so GSU could start scoring and he could start high-fiving and hugging the ladies.<br />

<br />
This game was quite intense. Between fumbles, crazy calls, and the guy behind us who kept making extremely rude comments about us standing up (???), I had to WWJD Big Al a couple times.<br />
<br />
But it was well in the end as the Eagles pulled out a sweet victory over Wofford.<br />
<br />

After the game, it was time to reunite!<br />
<br />
We really did have a good time getting together and had a really good turnout. There were a ton of people we wished had been able to come, but we had a great time laughing, catching up, avoiding people whose names we couldn't remember, and reminiscing about those crazy high school days.<br />
<br />
Some sweet friends.<br />
<br />

I was a permanent fixture in this girl's house for many many years.<br />

<br />
The reunion was at a local restaurant/bar and we hung out there for a good long while. Long enough to become extremely hungry and also long enough for kitchens all across town to shut down for the night.<br />
<br />
So what do a bunch of All-American teenagers do? Head to Steak and Shake at 1:00am for some burgers and fries! Favorite part of the night, by far.<br />
<br />

<br />
We had some special visitors in town!<br />
<br />
They got home right in time to catch Big Al's commercial running on TV Friday night. <br />

From youtube to the real tube, fellas.<br />
<br />
The next morning there was a familiar sight in our kitchen. <br />
<br />

<br />
We left the tailgate food prep to the boys and went to get pedicures. You really can't cheer on the Eagles if you are distracted by chipped toe nail polish and dry heels. <br />
<br />
I was pumped to see the Coke Diet was on sale. I hate over-paying for Coke Diet.<br />

At our last home game, it was literally so hot that we didn't go greet the team in fear of heat stroke. Glad it cooled down some so we could yell and slap and high five those boys.<br />

My father is obsessed with talking about "the crowd" at the game. He wants there to be 1.2 million people there. Not quite a mil, but there was a great crowd there on Saturday. Maybe like 900,000 or so. <br />

The game. Well the game was a nail biter of sorts and put me in that anxious world of turmoil. Back and forth, back and forth. Pepaw watches intently, willing our boys to get their acts together.<br />

Sunday we went to church with my parents and then laughed our way through lunch at RJ's.<br />
<br />
Matthew and Larsen had to get back on the road pretty quick but not before Matthew and Mama could watch trailers for all the new movies they want to see.<br />
<br />
My brother is my dad's replica in pretty much every way...but his love for movies comes from his mother. <br />

He also took that time to show my parents some youtube clips of a stand up comedian that had me crying I was crying so hard. And while the comic is beyond hilarious, I was mostly laughing at my brother who was laughing at my parents laughing at the clips. <br />

Lar captured us in the middle of the classic Tyson family "wave to them until they're completely out of sight" tradition. We have the Gramster to thank for that practice.<br />

It was more goodbyes that afternoon as we parted with Marlee. But not before a round of my new favorite game, Settlers of Catan. I don't why Marlee hasn't taught us this game sooner!<br />

But, we are dusting off our feathers and moving on to another day, people! <br />
<br />
This new day brings a new commercial and true to form, Big Al is pretty revved up about the whole thing. Losing does that to a crazy man, don't ya know? <br />
<br />
Looking forward to a fun game at Paulson on Saturday!<br />

Upon my arrival, I was greeted at the door by my brother and immediately proclaimed - "How fun is this?!?"<br />
<br />
Turns out it was even more fun than I could comprehend in that moment, seeing as just around the corner homemade pizzas were being made.<br />

....but I was pretty high on life sitting in the kitchen of the other two Tyson kids. Those guys know how to show a girl a good time.<br />
<br />
After we ate, we ventured out across town. We picked up a movie, went by my brother's work so I could see his massive office, and then ended the night with some sweetness. <br />

After we stuffed ourselves once again, we headed back to M&L's cute house and piled up on couches and recliners and laughed our way through some stand up comedy. I have to admit, theses big round cheeks of mine were sore from responding to so much humor in one night.<br />
<br />
Sunday morning I was excited to visit Matthew and Larsen's new church. I loved it! After church, it was off to Larsen's parent's house for some more home cooking.<br />

Ms. Kit made us a brunch fit for royalty.<br />

The meal was so good, and it was great seeing all the Accordino's again!<br />

Spending some one-on-two time with these guys was a great decision. I just wish it could happen more often. <br />

Between new babies, old friends, and sweet siblings - I think it's safe to say I packed in as much fun as one can in a 48 hour period. :-)<br />

Sweet Baby Andrew made his debut last Wednesday (9/12!), and on Saturday I hit the road to LG to love on my friends and get my hands on the babe.<br />

After rolling down some of my favorite Georgia backroads, I made it to Brittany and Earle's. The celebratory balloons guided me in. <br />

Here are 3 things you need to know about Baby Andrew. 1. His hair is SO soft. It's the softest thing I've ever felt. 2. At one point while I was holding him, he peaked open one eye at me and smiled. This is the true story of when we fell in love. 3. I love him.<br />

Meredith is also pregnant! Here she is pictured feeding Andrew's future best buddy or future wife. She is such a good mama already - she made sure her little peanut got a sampling of all of the delicious goodies people brought by. <br />
<br />
Andrew also got to hang with another best bud that day. Lacy and CJ were over with their cute little guy. Lacy is awesome and is also Andrew's pediatrician! I call that: the perfect scenario. <br />

I have been <em>vastly</em> blessed by these sweet friends God has placed in my life. We have had SO much fun over the years and have so many great memories....<br />

<br />
My co-worker and I were talking about how it's kind of hard to play the Citadel and be the obnoxious fans we love to be. You want to talk adequate amounts of smack, but then you also want to show proper appreciation for these guys' service and training as cadets. <br />
<br />
Oh, the inner struggle. <br />
<br />
Thankfully, it seems Al found a way to fight through it. :-)<br />

College football has finally come back to us! This means for the next few months our voices with be louder, our enthusiasm will grow wider, our bonds will forge deeper, and our pants will fit tighter. <br />

We headed out to Paulson on Saturday to eat, drink, and cheer on the Eagles!<br />
<br />
It was so fun to be back out there even though it turned out to be the hottest day in the history of America. I did not see that coming and kept asking, "Is it this hot during the day and I just don't know it because I'm inside?!?"<br />
<br />
I needed answers. I needed to make sense of it all.<br />
<br />
The sweating was widespread, but as usual - so was the merriment and excitement. We had many of our familiar faces at the tailgate.<br />

Don't be fooled by that dress I'm wearing - though it looks light and airy, I came to find out it is lined with material made from a cast iron skillet.<br />

Walking into the stadium always elicits a certain kind of LET'S DO THIS THING. <br />

Lord knows we've done it before. <br />

We are excited to say that Frank Sulkowski, the Sports reporter from WJCL/WTGS Fox 28 News out of Savannah is going to be running Big Al's commercials on TV this season! <br />
<br />
Here is the story and the first broadcast from this past Friday night: <br />

In the words of Frank - we love us some Alan Tyson, too. :-) We're excited even more people will get a chance to share in Gameday Commercial fun!<br />

<br />
And we marked another lovely lady off last weekend. <br />
<br />
It was this pretty girl's turn as bride so we traveled to Augusta on Friday afternoon to join in the festivities. <br />
<br />
What a hottie, ow ow.<br />
<br />

<br />
I assisted Marsha of Marsha Hagan Photography on yet another wedding, and we had our normal amount of fun, craziness, and by the end - complete exhaustion. But it was such a good time and so worth it. <br />
<br />
Taking pictures at a wedding is no joke. It takes an extreme amount of energy, and I liken it to the kind of endurance a marathon runner must have during a race. Yeah, I'm pretty sure marathon runners across the globe would agree with me that it's basically the same.<br />
<br />
Which is why I was very happy to see what was on the rehearsal dinner menu. I like to think of it as carb-loading. <br />
<br />

<br />
The rehearsal din was made even more fun because I sat by this crazy girl. I can appreciate a woman who finds humor in letting a friend drape their hair over her head to make it look like her own. <br />
<br />

After dinner it was back to the bridesmaid suite to hang out doing super girly things. Anna Kelley supervised the last minute beautification needs of all her fellow bridesmaids.<br />

I am sad to say I have no pictures to show of the wedding day itself. I find that there are so many things to remember that day and snapping pics with anything but the big dawg camera seems to fall off the list.<br />
<br />
But the day was fun and full of smiling people (with the bride and groom being the smiley-est of all). There was getting ready, first-looks, family and bridal party pics, a sweet ceremony, and a reception of yummy food, a great DJ, and guests with killer dance moves.<br />
<br />
And look who was there!<br />
<br />

I did manage some post-wedding parking lot shots.<br />
<br />

<br />
Not pictured: The massive drinks Marsha and I picked up from Sonic minutes after pulling out of the parking lot. We sipped on them to regain our strength and finished the night in the hotel room hanging out with our favorite Marls and our favorite Ging. <br />
<br />
The next day we slept in and then went on search for nourishment via PF Changs. <br />

After an entertaining lunch, we had to say goodbye to these goons.<br />
<br />

<br />
Marsha and I walked around the mall like zombies for a few hours. We browsed and shopped til we could go no more. I didn't know if we were going to make it out of that mall, but we found a frozen yogurt shop just in the nick of time. <br />
<br />
It gave us the strength we needed to get back to the car and hit the road home!<br />

<br />
Turns out Summer is busy, y'all. Busy at work, and busy at play. <br />
<br />
Since my main goal of this blog is to document all the things that <i>keep</i> us busy around here, you can imagine how it irks me that there are stories of fun that have gone untold. I did hit some of the highlights (July 4th, St. Augustine, Bri's babelorette, etc) but there were a few trips and good times that never made the cut. <br />
<br />
By my very scientific calculations based on historical analysis, you can look for that post sometime before Summer 2013.<br />
<br />
In the meantime! I'm going to just forge ahead and pretend like I don't know how out of order this blog is. <br />
<br />
I have two main things to document today. They don't really have anything to do with each other, but they both make me happy and we should always be as happy as possible on Fridays. <br />
<br />
#1 - This picture of my mother. <br />
<br />
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiaemXbl1VlBP6gnbopCKBTJPgfObxVvWQhxD_sJzugy2mYhc1VjofEo9cPVrcSpJo_9IOpIG82FbBbdNRnFwYjsrfAG26aKeAsPXYofo9zggsGcYZug_5NlwAPqM2pCINBf0sxJ7334YZO/s1600/photo.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="480" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiaemXbl1VlBP6gnbopCKBTJPgfObxVvWQhxD_sJzugy2mYhc1VjofEo9cPVrcSpJo_9IOpIG82FbBbdNRnFwYjsrfAG26aKeAsPXYofo9zggsGcYZug_5NlwAPqM2pCINBf0sxJ7334YZO/s640/photo.JPG" width="640" /></a><br />
<br />
I LOVE this picture. One blaringly loud theme of the last couple of months has been how important the important people are. I am blessed to have a lot of important people in my life, and while we should always be thankful for that - sometimes things happen that put that thankfulness in overdrive. <br />
<br />
There is a good chance Debbie will hate this picture and not be happy I posted it (you know how girls are about these things), but she really should have thought about that before encouraging my hobbies of photography and blogging.<br />
<br />
To me, this is 100% what I think about when I think about my mama. Beautiful, laughing, being ridiculous. (And the fact it is all taking place in Subway just seals it.) Love her!<br />
<br />
Unrelated second item.....<br />
<br />
#2 - Kayla is getting married tomorrow!<br />
<br />
<img alt="" border="0" height="640" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5635640372158348786" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhNB8STtMMk7VwhYFjrQo1v4Ok7hxQ88BhL3GsKLiXnu3xPFiXm6aYR7wWTacAcZ84fhyKaqz8IP7NskiEvzAN6HkuQJMKYJW0lN-LxNnvcSVYLkuGkAR9fRqQ1PGRUlLkAAvG5aNGN4q4p/s640/P1060605.jpg" style="display: block; margin: 0px auto 10px; text-align: center;" width="455" /><br />
<br />
Apparently one of our goals with our sweet college girls was to get them all married off. We are working our way down the list and tomorrow our sweet and hilarious Kayla will be a bride. Marsha and I are doing the photography for the wedding, so it is going to be a really good time. <br />
<br />
I can't wait to see this couple tie the knot. They are so awesome! <br />
