College Football Has Arrived!

There is nothing like waking up to the sounds of ESPN's College Game Day on the TV, feeling the cooler football weather when you step outside, or being in Tuscaloosa on game day! This is our favorite time of the year! We decided that we wanted John Turner to have the experience of being in Bryant Denney during a Bama game. He talks about going to "Big Al's house" all of the time. Since they were playing San Diego State, we figured this would be a perfect time to take him.

He was very excited when we arrived and he saw all of the people and the big stadium. He says Big Al's house is a big tower! HAHA! We took him to the pep rally and he enjoyed hearing the band and watching the dancers and the cheerleaders.

After the pep rally, he got to meet Big Al and have his picture taken with him. He was excited beyond words!

He also got some attention from some of the cute Bama cheerleaders. I don't know who was more excited about that--John Turner or Daddy:-)

We were unsure of how he was going to do once we got into the stadium and in our seats. He did remarkably well! He ate some Dippin Dots, cheered, ate some cookies, flirted with some college girls behind us, ate some cotton candy, and cheered some more!

We stayed until halftime and then decided to head back towards the car. Before we left he got to go down on the sideline and see Big Al one last time to tell him bye!

What wonderful memories our family made today! I have a feeling John Turner will be spending many Saturdays in Bryant Denney with us cheering on the Tide!

ROLL TIDE ROLL!!
