Rivalry Week

It's the time of year when my Facebook feed fills up with all the #thankful for posts or #blessed posts. I scroll through friends sharing their love. I read the grateful challenges, where you're supposed to post daily about things you are happy to have. I see the profile pictures have been changed to have "Thankful for us" or something to that effect stamped on them. 

All that's awesome. Really. 

I, too, feel #blessed. 

But, for us, this week is more about smack-talk. You see, it's rivalry week. My Florida State Seminoles will be whooping Stu's Florida Gators on Saturday night. 

The smack-talk really begins in August. As we near the end of November, it gets more and more obnoxious.

Last night, in honor of the game, I changed my profile picture to this beauty:

Stu was asleep when I did it. I knew he'd be so happy when he woke up and saw this beauty on his Facebook page. 

When I logged on this morning, I saw this:

I literally laughed out loud. 

​Good one Stu. Good one. 

In case you were wondering... 

The kids have been totally brainwashed against me. They are both solidly Gators. Although, Buddy is so rude about it that Rea is starting to be more sympathetic to the Noles. I think I might be able to convert her.
