College Football Baby! *Go Clemson Tigers*

I love, love, love college football! Seriously, it's like one of my most favorite things in the whole world. Unfortunately, I have only ever experience two previous college games live and in-person. Thanks to this weekend, my total has now gone up to three! 

I flew up to Clemson, SC to spend the weekend with family and friends and attend the Clemson/Florida State game. Talk about picking the perfect game to make my Clemson debut! The weather was absolutely gorgeous (hello, being able to wear jeans and not sweat to death!) and the Tigers played a fantastic game. The sold-out stadium was a loud, orange-and-purple lovin' place of amazingness. Seriously, I so got goosebumps when the Tigers started running on the field and they released the massive amounts of orange balloons into the beautiful blue sky. Nothing can compare to seeing the action live. Every team and stadium has fantastic traditions that make them special, and I truly loved experiencing Clemson's for the first time with people who love their alma mater so deeply! 

Thank you, thank you, thank you family and friends for making the weekend so special! Love and hugs!
