go AUBURN tigers

{catching up from AU vs. Clemson weekend}

Henry helped me make numerous things on Friday ... peanut butter fudge, two key lime pies, a yummy spinach & strawberry salad to name a few. he absolutely loves to help and cooking is an activity we really enjoy doing together.

after nap time, we met gary, papa, and mr. robbie out at the tailgate for some "pre-tailgating" I guess you'd call it. it was blazing hot, but fun.
then some special folks arrived ... Allison, Madeline and Joel! we headed downtown to grab a bite and enjoy the block party festivities.

the guys took the kiddos home and the ladies were able to have some time to catch up over dessert. any time spent with two of my best friends is time very well spent. :)

saturday: espn game day was at auburn (too bad we looked like complete poo on national television. ah, the curse of game day). we timed our saturday morning on campus run so we could be there at the start of the show. it was fun!

this confused guy was dressed up as chewbaca and gary had to get his picture made with him. I'm sure he was sweltering, as it was extremely hot at 9am! anything to get on TV i suppose.

the boys had fun at game day too

later at the tailgate ... a low country boil was on the menu. good times, good food. not so good weather - hottest game i can remember since USC in 2003. it was insanely hot.

owen took his afternoon nap in the RV ... cute cute.

henry loves the bushes' dog, bruiser.

each week when we talk about tailgating he always asks "will bruiser be there?"

madeline and henry trying to cool off in the rv. henry looked like he stepped out of the shower - all day. he IS the sweatiest human I know.

sweet madeline.

war eagle! go tigers! here's hoping auburn can hang with south cackalacky tomorrow.

stay tuned ...
