Auburn

We made our first trip to Auburn with both boys last weekend for Homecoming! It was also the first football game for them both! We spent the weekend with the Foster's and it was awesome getting to see all 4 of our boys together. I don't think I could have imagined it when Molly and I met 13 years ago! While Joe was working on Thursday, I took the boys downtown and got some Toomer's Lemonade. We walked across the street to Toomer's Corner and we even walked down to Samford Hall so I could show them where we got engaged. I realize they have no concept of what I was talking about, but it was still a great experience to share with them. We tailgated with the Foster's, Reeves' and many other Auburn friends. They have a great set-up not more than 100 yards from the stadium. It was so nice and convenient. Jack decided to take his morning nap on Joe before kickoff, so I took Joey into the stadium. We got there just in time to see Nova fly down from the upper deck. He was mesmerized by the band and the team coming out on the field. But, once all of the hoopla was over with, Joey was ready to go! Luckily, Joe and Jack made there way in, so we were able to hold him off until halftime. So, we went back to the tailgate, along with everyone else, and the kids picked up where they left off...having fun. It was a beautiful day on the Plains and I look forward to sharing more of these moments with the boys!
