Wow! What a weekend for college football! Jeff was out of town for a national conference this week, but he got to watch all the big games on TV. Jennifer, Ashley, and I spent Saturday morning doing a little Christmas shopping while Nathan and Will stayed with Tyler.
The girls had lunch at Pei Wei. Jennifer's fortune cookie read something like, "Your luck will change completely today." We all thought that was bad news since our season has been going so well. Ashley tore the fortune up into little pieces and said we should pretend it never happened. ; )
We met up with the boys at War Memorial for a light tailgate.
For the LR games, we have 4 pretty good seats together and 2 more down in the SE corner of the stadium...right by the opposing fans and their band! In spite of the band and the cowbells, Ashley fell asleep in my lap before the first TD was scored. My children are blessed with the ability to fall asleep literally anywhere! (They clearly get that from their father!) She woke up and called the Hogs with her new pompom gloves.
At halftime, we took some empty seats near the rest of our crew (plus the Inmans) and watched the Hogs get their 10th victory of the year. We made it home in time to watch #4 Oregon and #5 Oklahoma both lose.
I don't know what will happen this week for our #3 Hogs, but it's already been a fun season. One last pic...
...my ticket stub from the last time Arkansas beat #1 LSU at home in 2007. I bet they don't eek out another National Championship if we beat them this year. Still keepin' the faith! Go Hogs!
Got chill bumps reading and seeing that last bit there. What a great season indeed! I will be a nervous wreck on Friday. Keeping the faith also.
