loving me some....

Hello friends!

Linking up with Miss Jamie for an installment of What I’m Loving Wednesday
This week I am loving all the upcoming festivities that are filling up my lil calendar.

Exhibit A: I'm loving BIG BLUE MADNESS this friday night!


For many college basketball fans, this may just seem like a “practice” or “showcase”, but to Kentucky fans, this is an event that is as important as any home game. Big Blue Madness is a pep rally on a larger scale and introduction of this season’s basketball team to the big blue nation. Fans line up nearly a week in advance and camp outside of the ticket box office. This year there were a record breaking 570 plus tents and thousands of fans lined up for the free tickets. Our fabulous Coach Cal and our players even come visit the thousands of fans, signing autographs, delivering pizza, and just showing their respect for the loyal fan base. KY basketball players are local celebrities in Lexington. We love our wildcats!
 However, some of us are lucky enough to get tickets at home in our jammies if we are able to log into ticketmaster at just the right time. The tickets that are saved for online sales literally sale out in seconds. Last year I tried to get them at 7:01 am and they were sold out. This year I was able to score two tickets in lower arena at precisely 7am. Wohooo. People are selling these puppies on ebay from 200-400 bucks a ticket. Crazy huh?! While some extra $$$ sounds great in my pocket, these tickets are priceless to us true blue fans. Us Ky basketball fans are nuts over our cats. This event truly kicks off the Big Blue Nation’s season. This Friday night I will be wearing my KY blue and heading to Rupp Arena to catch all of the action. Super excited.  #GOUK!

I am also loving that Twelve days later will be the Blue-White scrimmage, and the following week on November 2nd, the team will open its exhibition schedule of two games. Already got my tix for the blue-white scrimmage. Seriously, us CATS fans get this excited over inner-squad scrimmages. Gotta love us wildcat fans.



I am loving that my mama and I are going to see Lady Antebellum next month. I am loving their new album and cant wait to see them live in concert.



I am loving that me and the fam are tailgating for baby brother's football game saturday.

I am loving that me and this gal have a possible date for church, lunch, and a lil keeneland on Sunday. My girlfran, Angie, and I have been in need of some QT time together. She has been slammed with dental school, but hopefully we will have an overdue date on sunday.




I am loving that this lil fellar cuddled with me last night for a good hour. Isnt he precious??


Sweet boy


I am loving these adorable photos of my besties lil boy, Trigg, and her sister's baby, Magnus. They are literally only two weeks apart. Couldn't you just eat them up?







And i am loving this sunset i saw on the way home this week. It's the little things in life :-)


Happy hump/half-way through the week/Wednesday!
