We try to take the boys to a football every year for their birthdays. They LOVE going to Athens to watch the Dawgs play, and we love going back to one of our favorite places on earth! We usually go to the Homecoming game--there are lots of fun festivities and it is guaranteed to be an afternoon game. But this year Matt's brother turns the big 4 0 in decmeber and his wife threw a surprise party (so fun and he was SO surprised.....it was 2 months early after all!) the weekend of homecoming, so we went to the Kentucky game. The week before the game i checked the schedule for game time and it said 7:45 p.m.---seriously? That is 30 minutes oast our boys bedtime.......
BUT they did GREAT!
We drove from Atlanta up to Athens--walked around campus a bit, and then ate dinner in downtown Athens. Oh my--I do love downtown Athens. We headed to the game and watched the Dawgs warm up, and the boys made it to the middle of the third quarter! Reid turned me at one point and said "I am ready to go home now. I need to sleep." We knew then that it was time to go!
The boys had such a great time at the game and Rylie had a wonderful time hanging out with Nai Nai!
Go Dawgs!
