Wisconsin Visit

Ben and I decided to make a trip up to WI to visit everyone this past weekend since we will not be back until christmas! Other than getting stuck in Memphis (thanks delta!) friday night the trip was great! We arrived in Madison about an hour before the Badger game, just in time to make a quick tailgate stop and walk to the game! Great win for the Badgers!! It was a little cold but as always my family from up north clothes me extremely well! I think I had on like 5 layers, haha! We spent the evening with the girls (Emma and Bella) for Halloween. Emma was an adorable cowgirl and Bella a ladybug....so cute! (Pics to come) We had a great trip and can't wait to see everyone again at Christmas!!

Fall = Football

Well it's that time of year again...Fall! And we are loving every minute of it! We have been lucky enough to attend multiple football games around the country with still more to come! We traveled to Stillwater, OK for the Oklahoma State v. Georgia game at the beginning of September. I enjoyed showing Ben the town and running into old college buddies! After our move back to North Carolina we travled north bound on I-85 to Charlottesville, VA for the TCU v. Virginia game. It was a great success! Two weeks later we had tickets for the TCU v. Clemson game in Clemson, South Carolina but we were not able to make the trip due to myself coming down with a cold. It was a great win for TCU even if we were not there! Although, we were really bummed that we couldn't visit with Ben's family from SC. Below are pictures from our travels...More games to come!

Visiting the family in Wisconsin!

Breckenridge, Colorado

We decided to take a family vacation this year with the Thompsons, Barnards, Boones, and Carters to Breckenridge, Colorado. Erik found the most goregous house in the mountains to rent! We had a great time and the weather was AMAZING!!

The Big Easy Weekend

Ben's job does have some GREAT perks! We went down to New Orleans for a weekend in May and had a blast! Our hotel was strategically placed beside the restaurant with the best margarita's in New Orleans! Good or Bad...I'm still not sure! Here are a couple pictures from the weekend...

Jamaica...ya mon!

We Honeymooned in Jamaica - at the Sandals Whitehouse Resort! It was beautiful! We had a long relaxing week laying by the pool, tanning at the beach, and meeting friends! Did I mention that we were also in a wedding? Yes it's true...we meet a couple from Canada and they asked us to stand up for them and sign the marriage certificate! What an experience!

Mr. and Mrs. Thompson!!!

April 4th came and went sooo fast! Ben and I had so much fun with all of our family and friends during the wedding weekend! It was PERFECT! We couldn't have asked for anything better! We are so happy to finally be the Thompson family! Here are some pics from the wedding weekend...

More Wedding Weekend Pics To Come!!

North Carolina Snow!

We were glad to be back to NC after a very COLD weekend in Wisconsin that included many days and nights in the negative temperatures. Only to wake up to 4 inches of snow in North Carolina...it must be following us! Ben, Hudson, Rider, and I had a great snow day!

Our backyard...4 inches!

Hudson loved his first snow experience!

He would have played out there all day if we would have let him!

What a great day!
