GO TIGERS!

Auburn Tigers that is. War Eagle! What a great football season we have had. 12-0 and headed to the National Championship. I sure would love for Santa to bring me 2 tickets to the game in Arizona. Even after all the allegations Cam has gone through this season.....our Auburn Family has stuck together and stayed positive. What a great team! Unfortunately, James and I only made it to one game this year....and who else but LSU. My mom & dad came in town and so generously got us 3 tickets which meant Claire was able to go too. The game was in Auburn and lots of fun....for us anyway! :-) We met up at our friends tailgate with Farrah & Jodie, and James' parents joined us too. What was great is that half the tailgate was for LSU and the other half for Auburn....so my parents weren't too outnumbered. So, obviously this is a very big/fun game for us and was also Claire's first big Auburn game. Last year she went to homecoming and only stayed for the first half, but there is no leaving early for this game. She was a trooper and did great. The first quarter was tough b/c she wanted to be held so she could see....and we almost had an entire drink spilt on us....but after a trip to the snack area for a snowball she was set. Somehow Claire also managed to fall asleep with a minute left in the game and stayed asleep all the way from the stadium to the tailgate even with all the cheering. She must have been one tired little girl. I'm so glad we went though and took Claire.....thanks mom for the tickets! And next year I hope we can make it to the plains for many more. I can't think of a better place to be on Saturdays during the fall.
