War Eagle, Hey!

The three of us headed back down to the plains this weekend, and we ALL went to the game! We were fully expecting to be gone by halftime with naptime looming, but Hudson LOVED it! We stayed all the way to the middle of the 4th quarter and only left because Auburn was up 52-3! Hudson would have definitely made it the whole game. We were shocked to say the least at how well he did.

Our attempt at a family picture...not so good!




It got really hot during the game, but Hudson hung in there. We had lots of food, drinks, books, coloring books, stickers, shakers, etc...we were prepared! For a lot of the game, he sat on the ground and played, and even picked up an old peanut shell or two--yuck! We just let him do it though. He was happy and it wasn't going to kill him! Our only issue was keeping him from hitting the people in front of us, and especially taking the shaker and poking the old man's bottom in front of us. It still makes me laugh that he was trying to do that! Luckily, it was just LA-Monroe and not a big game and the people in front of us were SO nice about it. They kept telling us how good he was being! Believe me, we were surprised too! And, Joel and I watched pretty much the whole game, which was awesome!


I'm sure Joel never thought he would be reading "Where Is Baby's Belly Button" during an Auburn football game! Ha! My how times have changed!


Hudson loved the band and when everyone would clap, so would he. He got really excited. When the players were about to run onto the field and the smoke came out of the tunnel, Hudson started yelling "hot, hot." We were laughing so hard at him.


There was just so much to look at and see, he had a ball. He was all about the "feetball" game!

As soon as we got back to the car, Hudson conked out. He was exhausted! It was such a fun day though and we might just be willing to take him to another game! Gotta start him early!
Here is Hudson before church this morning. Time to break out the pumpkins, fall is definitely here!!!

  1. You make me think I MIGHT want to take ML to a game if I didn't have to buy her a ticket!! We have 2 and I am definitely not trying that out solo! ML has just learned the word "pumpkin" from the Pottery Barn catalogue no less, and she LOVES to point them out...she'd be jealous of Hudson's cute outfit :)

  2. It cracks me up that Hudson has the #1 Auburn jersey, which on the current roster is Trovon Reed. Trovon, I think, must be from the other side of the Reed family!
