Welcome to the seventeenth episode of Shelbee’s Sunday Morning Quarterback! Turning it over now to my husband, the Sunday Morning Quarterback, with a recap of last week’s Citrus Bowl where our beloved Penn State faced off against Kentucky. Citrus Bowl Loss Sours McSorley’s Final Game #14 Kentucky Wildcats 27 – #12 Penn State Nittany Lions 24 The final game of Trace McSorley’s career was supposed to end with another 10 win season, the chance to break 10,000 career passing yards and give Penn State its third consecutive 10 win season…a feat that hasn’t happened since the 1980-82 seasons and never since the Nittany Lions joined the Big Ten Conference. Unfortunately,…

Welcome to the fifteenth episode of Shelbee’s Sunday Morning Quarterback! Turning it over now to my husband, the Sunday Morning Quarterback with a recap of yesterday’s games. It’s the Most Wonderful Time of the Year The greatest time of year is upon us. No, I do not mean Christmas. I’m talking about college football bowl season! Although if you really think about it, it is like having a three week Christmas celebration, 40 games in 23 days with the National Championship to close it out. It really is the most wonderful time of the year! Autonation Cure Bowl Tulane Green Wave 41 – Louisiana-Lafayette Rajun Cajuns 24 This game featured…

Shelbee’s Sunday Morning Quarterback #14: America’s Game
Welcome to the fourteenth episode of Shelbee’s Sunday Morning Quarterback! Turning it over now to my husband, the Sunday Morning Quarterback. America’s Game #22 Army Black Knights 17 – Navy Midshipmen 10 Playing for the 119th time since 1890, Army versus Navy has become an iconic symbol of college football. The game in which players will not be heading to the NFL draft to play on Sundays but instead will be donning uniforms to serve their country 365 days a year. The game in which the rivalry, the pure love of the game, and of course, cross service bragging rights are what really matter. The atmosphere at an Army/Navy game…

Thoughts About Plaid with EvaTrends & Link Up On the Edge #123
It is no secret that I adore plaid and that I love the selection of clothing from EvaTrends. So when I was asked to collaborate with them by sharing 3 items of my choosing, I simply could not resist this adorable Plaid Leisure Dress. The last EvaTrends dress I shared was all about the leopard print, another favorite pattern of mine. But leopard is a print that I had to grow to love whereas I think I came into this world with a strong affection for all things plaid. There is just something about the lines and colors of a tartan that make me feel nostalgic for a time that…

Shelbee’s Sunday Morning Quarterback #13: Championship Weekend Recap
Welcome to the thirteenth episode of Shelbee’s Sunday Morning Quarterback! Turning it over now to my husband, the Sunday Morning Quarterback. Championship Weekend Recap and Selection Sunday With my Nittany Lions sitting out this Championship Weekend, I’ve decided this edition of the Sunday Morning Quarterback will cover all of the games played yesterday. Today at noon also marks Selection Sunday for the final season rankings and bowl game selections. As much as I’d love to see Penn State head to a New Years Six game, I’m thinking the Citrus Bowl (a.k.a the best of the rest) will be our most likely destination. MAC Championship Game Northern Illinois 30 – Buffalo…

#12 Penn State Nittany Lions 38 – Maryland Terrapins 3 Welcome to the twelfth episode of Shelbee’s Sunday Morning Quarterback! I finally invested in some new fan gear with this cute Penn State fleece that I found in my local Target in Northern New York, which is a really weird place to find Penn State fan gear. But I sure am happy to have it. It is super comfortable and very warm for this snow covered place. Turning it over now to my husband, the Sunday Morning Quarterback. Rivalry week is the final week of the reguar season of college football. This week traditionally pits long time rivals against each…

The Offense Sells the Tickets, but the Defense Wins the Games With the end of college football season not far away and Penn State currently sitting just outside the rankings of a New Year’s Six bowl game, a showcase performance was needed against lowly Rutgers, along…

The Struggle is Real & Link Up On the Edge #80
First, before I talk about the struggle, I want to introduce you all to Sherry of The Life of the Party who is co-hosting the link up with me today.

I’m very passionate about design and find my brain constantly swimming with ideas of new and interesting color combinations and mixing of fabric textures and patterns. This blog has turned my passion…
