Well there is certainly no lack of spirit at your house. Those colors are bright enough to cheer up any day, snow or not. That was a great deal on the snow-cheerleader and the flatware. Cute, cute table. I wish I liked watching sports more with DH, I manage a little Razorback football and that's about it.

SOOO CUTE!!!

Now, that's my kind of table. I love sports and I love a real sports fan. The big plate is super cool. Glad you are so happy with your snowlady cheerleader you "found" in your box this year.

Now this is so festive and coloful with so many cute details. Love your napkins-plates and cups. Also your Snowlady Chearleader! She looks like she was made for that table...great find. Sorry you lost half your letters..probably will find them when the season is over!! lol If you hadn't brought attention to them...I would have
thought that's how you planned them to look.
I remember 'Illini Santa'-looks like you made him
a very happy man with your new Snowlady!!
It's great that your family is into watching weekend games.
DH & I do that (alone)..lol but my Dad was the one who introduced me to college football as a teen.
He and I watched the games every weekend.
I really loved those times together as I'm sure
your family does.

Forgot to mention, the big Illinois plate is from Cracker Barrel 2 years ago.

OA, I know you love the sports theme, have commented many times on your decor at your sports bar & how cute you always do it up!

Oh yeah, we're really sports fans, no one answers the phone, the dogs can't go out or the kids can't talk while the game is on or they are sent to play in another room!!!! LOL Usually though, the gkids are just as involved in the game as the adults! They know who all the players are & have gotten most of their autographs & pictures with them.

Your Cheerleader is wonderful, yachter...great find...$$$!
Love the clear placemats & place settings are beautiful! Flatware, too!!

I'm LOL at your words: "no one answers the phone, the dogs can't go out or the kids can't talk while the game is on or they are sent to play in another room!!!! My now "gone from home" kids used to tease me about "not calling Mom while the Iowa game is on!" LOL! Now I've got DVR to "pause" if need be!

Anyway, yachter...I'm enjoying your table even tho it is orange & blue! (snicker) ...but you can snicker right back at me cause I see Illinois is 3-0 in the Big Ten ... & Iowa is 0-3! (ugh!) Well, new coach, new re-building yr, right?

Great table, great fun! Enjoyed! Jeanne S.

Yachter, your new snow lady is precious. Get find at a wonderful price. That's what keeps us ys. Great to hear you have the whole family involved in the games. Being able to get autographs and pictures with them is special.

The snow cheerlady is adorable! Cute table!

jeannespines, I watch alot of the teams in the Big Ten when ours isn't playing & noticed how much improved Iowa is this year.

Sometimes a new coach IS in order to get things right.

Where's your Hawkeyes table?? LOL

Yachter,

That table is so cute! The colors are wonderful, and I'm sure DH appreciates tablescaping more now! I LOVE the Santa. You have a nice collection of Illinois memorabilia there. Really nice table.

So cute! Love the Santa. But...... you know now you've done it. I will have to do a KU Jayhawk table. My family are all KU alum from way back. I don't think we will ever play each other, too bad! We had a tie and overtime with Michigan a couple of days ago. Go Hawks!

Grins,

Pat

Ladypat, I heard about that game the other day & still can't figure out why UM was playing out of conference. The Big Ten started in Jan. so why were they playing KU???

I saw KU won, but Michigan hasn't been that good for a few years now. KU always has good team, don't they ever have a rebuilding year after seniors graduate????

Well, I'll be waiting to see your KU table, always a good way to fill the table between xmas & Valentines!

Great job on your table, Yachter! I'm not a sports fan, but I do love seeing all the sports decor. Your santa and cheerleading gal are just too cute. Hope the rest of your blocks turn up soon too. And I can't believe that you found just the perfect silverware to go with your color scheme. You sure are a good YS bargain hunter! ;o)
