BUCKEYES
Year 1 of the College Football Playoffs, First Round game at the Shoe versus the Tennessee Volunteers. Not gonna lie, I was nervous before this one, I didn’t have a lot of confidence coming off of the Xichigan game, for good reason I think.
The atmosphere was bonkers, a night game at Ohio Stadium, and the Buckeyes came out firing and buried UT from the start. It was 21-0 in the first quarter and we looked aggressive and played free, it was so refreshing to watch.

CHRISTMAS
We went to Caton & Gretchen’s for Christmas Eve, was a lovely time as usual. Olive, Walker, my Mom, and I woke up Christmas morning and celebrated before the rest of the family showed up around 11:00am. Food and presents and games for the next 8 hours, it was a great day, even if I did feel a bit tired all day.
