Happy Halloween!!

This year Harry and I decided to carve a Clemson pumpkin. I even took it to school to be judged in the pumpkin carving contest (I'll find out if it won anything tomorrow). I hope all you Clemson fans enjoy the pumpkin!



Go Tigers!!!

Clemson vs. Central Michigan

Last weekend Harry, Joanne, Ashley, and I made the trip from Charlotte to Clemson for homecoming. We got up at 4:45am and left just after 5:30 so we could get there in enough time to tailgate and go downtown. We had a great time and the best thing of all was Clemson won 70-14. Go Tigers!


Our view of the game.

Thompson Family Reunion 2007

This past weekend Harry and I attended the annual Thompson Family Reunion held in south Charlotte. We had a blast... literally.

When we first arrived on Friday night we were greeted with a "bang". We thought some of the Thompson's, in their zealous to reunite, had run into another Thompson. As it turns out a passerby hit a deer. It was then decided that Harry would be the perfect candidate to put the deer out of its misery; we don't know who made this decision or how it was made, but Harry did the deed. It was very sad and he felt really bad shooting an injured doe, but we both know it was the right thing to do. After that incident, the whole evening seemed a little down.

We continued the fun the next day with breakfast and the pig roast. The men chopped the pigs around 4:00 while the ladies enjoyed a good old fashion English Tea Party; although none of us were really dressed for it. Last night we finished the reunion up with a delicious BBQ dinner and a Clemson victory!!! What a great weekend!
