Sweet Home Aggieland

We have been so excited for this weekend. Yes it was another weekend of traveling, but it was also a chance to go "home". If you've read this blog long, you know that Parker and I are Aggies and absolutely love our alma mater. We were graciously given tickets to the game, so off we went to watch the Aggies BTHO (Beat The Hell Outta- it's an Aggie thing) Sam Houston State, catch up with family and friends, and eat our little hearts out. After all, it wouldn't be a proper weekend if we didn't start Monday out with a need to hit the treadmill.



Back in the land where these little rings of gold originated

Wet hair, don't care. It rained the majority of the first half, but it was still a blast!

We got to spend time with members of both families while in Aggieland, which was such a treat. 

Sister-in-law and future brother-in-law

7 person selfie? Why not. We were even missing two from this ever growing bunch!

College Station is so important to us because it's where we met. Our first date was at Kyle Field, so it's always nostalgic being back. Aggieland is home, and it's where our story began. I can't wait for our next trip down, and we are so excited to bring little ones to their first football game in a few years. Gotta start them early!

I hope you all had a good weekend too!

    Sounds like so much fun! I'll always have a chip on my shoulder for A&M though after they beat NU at the Meineke bowl! :(

    Yay for visiting your alma mater! I'm so nostalgic for my alma mater already and I still have 96 days left as a college student! I'm planning multiple trips back to Murray in the spring... thankfully my sister doesn't graduate until May 2015 so I'll have a free place to stay when I come visit!

    We are going to the Auburn game next month. I can't wait! Although I will definitely be taking the elevator up to the third deck. No way am I taking the ramps all the way up there at nearly 27 weeks pregnant!

    Looks like a fun weekend. It's so nice you are close enough to enjoy family time and your "home" town.
