The question is not will but how will history be made tomorrow?

No, I'm not going to get all political on you but tomorrow really is going to be HUGE day in the history of America so I felt I had to put something in my blog.

Tomorrow we will either elect our first African American President or our first female Vice President. It will be really cool one day down the road to recap this little tidbit in history for our kids as they are studying it in school.

This country is facing lots of really big issues right now and honestly I don't think either of these candidates are going to solve them however it will still be historical none the less. What will also go down in the record books is the record number of voters who are predicted to turn out and vote in this election. It is amazing really.

This is such a big election that even many companies are pushing people to vote. Tomorrow if you vote you can go to Starbucks and get free coffee, Ben and Jerry's for free ice cream, and Krispy Kreme for a free donut. I'm voting anyway but free food is always good :)

I'll be up bright and early to vote, then picking up my free coffee from Starbucks before heading to work. May the best candidate win!!

Thriller

I'm guessing you thought this post was about Halloween just a few days late huh? Nope!

The Pirates played last night against conference foe UCF in Orlando, FL and although it was ugly from start to finish pulled it out in OT for a 13-10. This brings them to 5-3 on the season heading into homecoming this weekend.

We have a huge group of family headed down to Greenville with us this weekend. 12 people total including two of my nephews. It should be fun. I hope to be posting lots of fun pics and a recap of yet another win on Monday :)


Go Pirates, Beat Marshall!!

The view from my back porch

is soooo pretty during this time of year. We haven't lived here long but I'm looking forward to many more because of this. It is beautiful!

Happy 8 Months Little Guy!

Hanging out in the straw that currently covers our yard in hopes that grass will grow next year.



What a tasty treat!




Look at the big stick I found Mom!









Such as sophisticated pup all covered in mud :)

November already?

This is what Tonka thinks about it. It sure does seem like someone pressed fast forward on 2008. I'm thinking one of my goals for 2009 is going to be to enjoy things more because from what I hear they just keep going by faster as the years move past.
