a house divided

 

This Saturday will be monumental for our household.

 

{and maybe just as monumental for the rest of the state of Kentucky… but I tend to make things about me, so I’ll go on…}

 

Lexington’s University of Kentucky will be playing the University of Louisville in the final four of the NCAA tournament. In this house divided, you could cut the tension in the air with a knife!

 

Taken a couple years ago while in Disney World on a day when our teams were playing each other.

In the spirit of March Madness, I thought I would share a few images from our man cave, a.k.a. the basement.

I love this light switch, which I actually installed myself a few years ago while Nick was out of the house =)

Even our son has been pulled into the battle… who will get to him to dress him first for Saturday?!

Can you tell who does all the decorating around here? ;)

Don’t tell Daddy, but we’re already getting our blue gear on this morning and learning important first words:

GO CATS!

 

blue!

 

XOXO,

Stephanie

  4. hahaha I LOVE this post!!
    My husband is from Louisville, but we both went to and met at UK.
    So we both are hardcore UK FANS!! I am so excited!!
    My husband is an officer in the Army, and is currently deployed, he has made a point to get up in the middle of the night for every single game and calls me SO EXCITED after every one. I think he is beside himself that he won't get to be in Lexington at Two Keys with me for the game!!
    LOL.

    I'm with you!
    Put that boy in blue!!
    GO CATS!!!
    The BBN is everywhere!

  13. So funny. My boyfriend and I are the same way in Washington state. He tried to tell me we each get to claim one twin, but they have House Divided onesies I wanted instead. Houston's getting so big, I can't believe it!

  14. I laughed out loud when I read this! My husband and I have opposing baseball teams. I cheer for the World Series Cardinals and he cheers for the Cubs. Even though they are opposing teams they really haven't been much competition for each other since we started dating! Ha! Our kids will be in trouble one day! Of course my nephew has parents with the same opposing teams and whatever team he wears to the game is the parent that must care for him at the game.

    Also, I love the magnetic wall! Is that magnetic paint that you used?

  18. So cute!!! We're a divided household too (OSU vs. Michigan). Can't wait to see who our little girl picks as HER team ;-) It helps that mom works there, I have the distinct advantage. I love your hair btw!

  19. You've got an awesome array of stuff for your teams,it's incredible!Luckily for me,my fiancé and I support the same team,otherwise we would be in a LOT of trouble,because we are both quite spirited (to say the least) when supporting our team.

  20. Love this! That light cover is awesome!

    I'm a new reader:) We also have the house divided like Audra (OSUvsUofM). I say Go Bucks and my 6 year old son boos me. My husband is proud.

  21. This is so funny because I was talking to a fried today about how we will be the same way this saturday. My hubby is a huge Louisville fan, but my step daughter is a huge UK fan. I on the other hand and a huge fan of march maddness in general because it means baseball season is around the corner ;)

  22. Babies are cute and lovable. It is just right that you give them the best presents. When selecting bibs, you can get a gift container where you can place all personalized products.

I just shared my thoughts, I'd love to hear you share yours! {Besides, I'm tired of listening to the voices in my head.} I kid, I kid... ;)
