we went bowling...

At this time last week I was a very tired and busy person. Not only were my days at the OR long (but very rewarding), but my evenings were jam packed with events and trips and visits with family and friends. To top everything off I came down with a nasty cold that just drained any reserve energy I had built up. I thought to myself Sunday night as I went to bed, "There is no way I am going to make it through the week." Thankfully I did make it through the week in one piece and actually had a great time and kept a great attitude (which is hard if you really know how I can be when i am tired and/or hungry). It is just another "Go God" moment I have to give to the Lord. He supplies the coolest gifts to you when you are not even expecting them.

One highlight of the week I really wanted to share with you all was my trip to Charlotte to watch State play in the Belk Bowl. I was still very much sick as the boys and I hit the road, but with lots of sleep on the way down, 5 layers of clothing, and two bottles of water to hydrate me later, I was good to go!!! I am so glad I decided to make the trip down. It was such an amazing experience.

We showed up to the game a couple of hours early so we decided to walk over to Fan Fest. To everybody's surprise Daughtry was preforming!!!! I am not big on his style or genre of music but I did know some of his songs from when he was on Idol so of course I joined in and sang along.

Our seats were simply amazing. That is the only word I can think to describe them. Thanks to The Student Wolfpack Club, we were able to get second row seats in the end zone. It was a whole new perspective on the game and I must say, I enjoyed it very much.

Our team running out. They look so good in all red uniforms.

The final score...Pack Wins!!!!



Like I said it was such a good night. I am already looking forward to Football season next year!!!!

I hope that everybody had a fun filled New Year. And if you are in the mountains I also hope you are staying warm and cozy during this artic blast and snow storm. As I write this post, it is 18 degrees outside, and who knows what the wind chill is!!!! Love you all and I hope and pray that your journey is blessed :)
