I'm soooo READY for the BIG PARTY tonight...MY #1 AUBURN TIGERS are playing for the NATIONAL CHAMPIONSHIP TITLE and I'm very pumped!!! We have had an AUsome year and if you have been around me for any length of time, then you know I'm a HUGE AUBURN FAN...I spend most of my Fall weekends in Auburn watching my tigers play. This year I attended six home games and was lucky to get a special ticket for the SEC CHAMPIONSHIP GAME...this was by far my all time favorite game! Mr.CC and I had plans to be in Auburn today to watch the game at our new arena on campus, but because of the ICE STORM those plans have been cancelled :(. I called last night and cancelled our hotel room...that was very hard for me, but I had no choice. I'm praying very hard that power will not go out during game time in Auburn, because all these students (including my very own Mary Claire) so deserve to see their team play in this BIG game...I ask you to say a prayer too. I'm very concerned that these young adults understand the danger of ICY roads...so please also pray that they will stay off the roads and stay SAFE! With all the excitement of the upcoming game, I made an AUBURN tree in my foyer that I will share with you today...I can say that it's a THRIFTY tree to some degree...came right out of my yard here at COASTAL CHARM, but all those game tickets are not very THRIFTY...oh well! I will warn you that this is a very long post, so please hang in there with me...I have lots to share! Thanks for coming today and I hope you have a fun time here at my party...so let's get this party started!
Hope y'all come back...real soon,
Linda

head coach...thanks Gene for all you do for these young men!
I'm so happy that I got to do a lot of this during our season this year...WAR EAGLE!
Our AUsome seats at the SEC CHAMPIONSHIP GAME!
I so hope the next trophy that these young men will be holding up
will be a crystal football...I know you can do it guys...it's only 60 minutes!
If we WIN tonight...my front yard will look like TOOMER'S CORNER...yes I'm going
to roll my own yard...what can I say...it's just in the blood!!!

Love your litte tree!!! Good luck tonight my sweet, you know we'll be cheering for you here in my house!!
I can so appreciate your excitement and love for your team. We are a Penn State family and bleed blue and white. It's hard to explain to people, you either get it, or you don't. So, I love your post and I defintely get it. Good luck tonight and enjoy the game!!!
Hi Linda. Though we are UGA bulldogs, both our kids went to Auburn, so we cheer for Auburn all season - and especially this season. We know how to say "Waaaaaaaar Eagle - Hey!" with the best of 'em! Go Tigers! Linda
I wish I had that much enthusiam for any sport...just not my thing, even though my husband loves sports!
War Damn Eagle! I am an AL fan but have to congratulate Auburn on a grand season. Hope they win tonight. Two championship teams in one state - Super.
Love the tree and your enthusiasm! Pray that everyone stays safe tonight! Good luck to the Auburn Tigers! My uncle taught at Clemson University (which are also Tigers). Hope we can still be friends :) Enjoy the game! :D Michelle
Thanks for hosting another party!

I love the Auburn tree, soooo cute! Thank Goodness the worse did not come about, no loss of power so GAME ON! Daughter is going with some friends to a local restaurant to watch the game (her hubby - Ala. fan - is staying home with the twins) but I think we'll stay in with the fire going all toasty and warm. This is going to be an AUe-some game.....WAR "CAM" EAGLE my friend!

Linda, there are not many women who can wear Orange. But you sure do right by it! Looks like tons of fun, my dear. And what a supportive Mom, and Wife you are! Thanks for the awesome party you host each week, I enjoy it so much as I do think of myself as "nifty thrifty" xoxo tami
Love your "Auburn" tree and I so hope that your Auburn tigers wins that crystal football tonight.

Love your tree and I am so excited for you, Auburn and all their fans. Every time I see something about Auburn now I think of you!! I hope and pray all those kids will be safe in this very icy weather. I want to see pics of your rolled yard!! hugs, Linda
I love your tree!!!! Those are some beautiful pics of you and Mr. CC!
I love your tree. I found the trip to Arizona to be a little un-thrifty~ so I came to Boston to watch the game with my sister.
We'll be wearing our orange and blue tonight too.
We are Auburn fans too. Love your Auburn tree!!!
Hi Linda!
That tree is such a cute idea! I hope the weather is better than predicted for you. Good luck with the game!

Your tree is just the cutest. I LOVE football and have been glued to the TV. I am all set with tons of snacks for the BCS tonight. Sorry, I am rooting for Oregon. I lived there for 18 yrs and my son still lives there. I just have to. Whoever wins it is a thrill they have done so well this year. Thanks for joining TTT. Hugs, Marty
Hi Linda, wishing AU the best of luck! Lovin' your tree, it's so much fun! Enjoy the game:@)
Oh my goodness - tonight is the night! War Eagle!!!
We were just talking about the game tonight! I hope they win for you dear! Good luck and have fun and I love your little tree!!! :)
So sorry the weather keeps you from going to the game. I am not a football fan at all, but my daughter is a huge Ga. fan and her best friend and her parents went to Auburn and of course are huge fans. Cute vignettes.
how fun! i love that tree. best of luck to your team!
Hi Linda! Good luck to the Tigers! So sorry you can't go and I will certainly be praying for those on the road! We have ice here, too, and I haven't left the house! Good luck!...hugs...Debbie
Mr. Sweet is all settled in for the ballgame right now. I don't give a flyin' flip for football (unless a grandson is playing.):))
He is pulling for your team.

Hi Linda, Happy New Year to you and your family. Thank You for posting today. Have yourself a great week..........Julian
Hi Linda,
I don't have anything to link tonight but I wanted to let you know we are watching the big game at our house tonight and cheering Auburn on! My son goes to Ole Miss so we have to cheer for the SEC team! I told him what a big Auburn fan you were so I grabbed my computer and showed him your post.
Have fun cheering your team on!
Jane
What a fun time you all are having. Stay safe and warm.
I messed up when I put my first kink up. Missed the l in html. So I redid it but don't know how to get the first one off. Hope I didn't mess you up.
I can't believe I made the party and right in the middle of the ballgame!!!! I had to have a distraction - It's killin' me! I KNOW the second half is when the magic is going to happen!
I hate you guys had to cancel your trip to Auburn to watch the game...even more $$$ for the upcoming wedding!
Love the football tree.
Rhonda
I LoVe this post, it feels so "all American apple pie"

Hi Linda....War Eagle! Can you believe it??!! Number 1 - woohoo! Our son and his 4 kids (6 and under) are headed out to roll their yard. Not sure if it'll be noticed with all the snow, but it'll be fun! Have a great day! Linda
Congrats on the big win last night and thanks for hosting.

Congrats on the win last night. Mr. Sweet said something about it being a really exciting game.I'm glad you are happy!! :)))
You must be over the moon this morning! Congrats on the BCS win! I'm a Cali gal (no hopes for Cal for a few years) and my nephew now plays pro for the Falcons. But it was a great game - down to that last minute!
Thanks for hosting too!
Yay war eagles!! As soon as the game was over, the first thing I thought was, "It's loud in Linda's house right now!" I can only imagine how much TP is hanging from the trees right now.
Congratulations to you and all the other Auburn fans!! Happy, Happy New Year!!!
Fondly,
Ann

Now I thought for sure I'd be getting a note that you were coming to Arizona to watch the game and needed a place to stay. I would've said yes!
Congratulations on the win! I was at the hockey rink watching the game. Go figure.
Take care,
Lisa
Congrats Linda on your Auburn Tigers National Championship. When I heard they won this morning I was so excited for you! I know their was some celebrating going on in your house last night.
Enjoy your evening,
Gail
Congrats... last night was a rough one for this Duck:) Great game, exciting to the end.
Thanks for hosting.
WAR DAMN EAGLE!!! Wasn't that a fabulous game?!!! We had a crowd here, cheering on our beloved Tigers.
Love your tree!!! I'll have to remember this idea for next season...
Perhaps next season, we can meet up at the pregame festivities...Our friends have a gameday condo, just down from Mama Goldberg's. It's great, especially with the short walk to the stadium, but I do miss our spot by Mary Martin...
Jane (artfully graced)
Congratulations!!! Bet you have been smiling all day! :-D
Thanks for hosting again this week. I need to get busy and do some visiting around to see what everyone has to share this week.
Enjoy your evening.
Thanks for the linky party!!

Kelli
Yay! Your team won! Congrats!
Roll Tide!!! I detest Auburn, but I have to admit that Cam's speech at the end of the game was good. He sounds like a nice guy who's Momma must've raised right. Congrats.
Love your enthusiasm and zest for life, Linda. Your blog is lovely. Thanks for hosting such a fun party.
Best to you,
Lynn @ Cottage and Creek
