Roll Tide!

Bama Homecoming was so much fun.  The girls went to their first game this weekend and had a ball.  They could not get over everything going on.  We walked around, showed them the sorority houses with the lawn decorations.  They got to see where I lived while there as well as Aunt Beth's house.  We saw the team buses pull up so we ran over and got to see the players walk in.  That was fun getting to see that and the look on their faces when they saw Saban and Trent Richardson.  I think Sara Brooke thought he was much taller than he really is.  We walked the Quad and ran into some cheerleaders who were nice enough to take a picture with the girls (on Aunt Beth's camera and will post later). We just happened upon Preston Dial with his HUGE Championship Ring and they heard Denny Chimes play.  We made it back over to the Walk of Champions and you could almost feel a greatness. They loved the statue of The Bear, had no clue who Gene Stallings was but ran right over to the statue of Uncle Nick.  We found our seats and the girls were amazed at the size and what all was going on.  The players were on the field warming up and they loved it.  Mary Reese had fun cheering and doing the wave.  Sara Brooke was too busy wanting to see Richardson and Maze.  The whole way back to Aunt Beth and Uncle Spencer's house they said Thank You and that this was the best weekend ever! You know it's nice to hear that, but when you know that they really mean it, it's even better.  I think they are ready to go back, they are definetly champs at cheering ROLL TIDE! Best memories, ever!



I am so glad they had a good time, but how could you not? It was a beautiful day on the most beautiful campus with great history and wonderful football. Love my girls and love Bama! Roll Tide!
