This weekend Jason and I went to Auburn for the opening weekend of SEC football. Jason has been looking forward to this weekend since December. We left after work on Friday and drove to Birmingham to stayed the night. It was a great idea, because it would break up the drive and I would get to sleep in a little. Wow were we wrong. About 1am The Church of the Almighty God (that was the name on the bus) checked in and the girls were on our floor. They slammed doors and yelled in the hall until 4 am. I finally decided to get up and get a bite to eat. The Lobby was full of kids playing on the computer and watching TV. So we got up about 6:30 and checked out. I called my mom around 8:30 and thanked her for being a responsible adult when I was younger and making us be quite and sleep on school and church trips.
Ok, so I shook it off and was really ready for the day. We headed to Auburn for a great day of Tailgating. It was so much fun. We were within 100ft of so many of Jason's friends. We spent most of the day with Hunter and his wife. We had BBQ sandwiches and hung out. We were also able to see Ashley (Owen) Ondreski's parents. We had not seen them since her wedding last October. Then we spent some time with John and his wife Ashley. It rained a little off and on, but the weather was wonderful.
After a great day with friends, we headed to the stadium. We found our seats and as we sat down, the rain came down. But I had my raincoat, so I was ready. It rained until the beginning of the game and it was great weather from then on.
To be honest, the game was not pretty, I didn't know if we would pull it out or not, but I had a great time. It was my first time in the stadium and I loved it. The baby was so funny. Every time the announcer would talk or the crowd would get loud she would jump all over the place. it was so fun. She and I had a great time.
I took it easy most of the game and felt really good, but Jason decided I was tired and we needed to leave during the third quarter. So we began the walk back to the car. I am so glad he made us leave, because I began to really feel it on the walk back. I really was tired.
We made our way to the car and then over to his friend Craig's place. He has a restaurant / sports bar down the street. We ordered some food and were ready to watch the end of the game. After about 5 min, I told Jason to stay and watch the last 5 min, but I was going to the car. I went out and within seconds I was out.
I slept all the way to the hotel and until 6am. It was so nice to sleep in a quite place. The next morning we got up and went to church in Auburn and I met many of Jason's friends there as well. We went to lunch with the Goodman's, then I hit the bookstores and bought a few things for our little girl.
It was a great weekend. I look forward to going back soon.
Oh... and Jason and I celebrated 2 years this weekend!. Two years ago this weekend we met at church and married a year and 3 months later. In 3 months we will have a little girl. Wow, God does amazing things.
