What a Weekend

We are back from our weekend in the upstate.

We headed up as soon as everyone was home from work and school on Friday. The 18 year old wasn't too happy that we were taking him away from his friends for the weekend and that attitude caused a little drama between he and husband. That in turn made me call for a return home on Sunday instead of Monday as was planned! :(

We left son to stew in his own juices on Saturday while we went to Clemson to watch them play Virgina Tech. We had great seats! And what a game! So glad we won!

My sister and her husband were at the game and we met up during half time out at their tailgate. Someone needs to remind me not to let a 30-something mix a drink for me. Their idea of a vodka and cranberry juice is a huge cup of vodka with a splash of cranberry juice! I had a hard time waking out of the stadium after the game!

Since we weren't in a hurry to leave afterwards, we met up with husband's sister and her boyfriend and grabbed a bite to eat. I had a wonderful Caprese Salad and many glasses of water! Then we headed to one of husband's old haunts when he was a student and people watched. 

When we got back to the house, son had called my mom, who lives about 40 minutes away, to see if she could come over and see him. But, she had a prior commitment and couldn't make it. I think he was pretty glad to see us and may reconsider sitting out the next game at the house!

We grilled steaks and watched a movie before turning in for the night.

Sunday morning daughter and husband tried their luck at fishing. Didn't get anything but muddy!

We ended up leaving around noon to head back over to clemson to meet up with our neighbor's son to give him some sweatshirts and a jacket that his mother sent with us. 

The weather has really turned cooler and I started with sneezing and a runny nose over the weekend, so I was so glad to just get home and be able to put on my pajamas and relax.

The teens don't have school today because it is a teacher workday. So daughter and I are heading downtown Charleston so she can take some photos with her new camera.We may even hit up a few of the historical homes while we are there.

Did you have a good weekend?
