Aggieland!

Eeekk....it is finally football season and time to travel to College Station for a few home games! The best part of this is that Amanda and Artie, and now little Evan, live in good ol' CS and I will hopefully get to see Evan monster at least once a month during the fall.  Oh, and I can't forget, my little cousin Kimberly now live in CS also!  She is a sophomore at A&M...WHOOP!  


My dad drove up to SA from the Valley to take care of the pups so that Sam and I could attend the first home game; A&M vs SFA.  So we drove to A&M Saturday morning, went straight to HEB to load up on some tailgating items, stopped by to visit with Amanda and Artie, drove to Kimmy's apartment to pick her up for lunch, went to a tent sale and bought a few things, then went to the mall to catch the shuttle for the big game.  We hung out at one tailgate before we walked over to Omar's tailgate for some food.  Game time is 6 pm so then we walked some more up the ramps for the game.  All in all i think we walked about 5 miles just being on campus!  I miss A&M terribly and just being on campus brings back wonderful memories.  It is amazing watching my little cousin walk on campus!  It is surreal.  I wished and hoped for 6 years now that someone in my family would attend A&M after me and FINALLY my wish has come true!  I am soooo proud of her.  She gets me now...she understands!  Now, I say "little cousin", but she obviously is not so little if she is in college, but to me she will always be my little cousin.  

Kim and Me


Our hope is to attend every home game, but realistically, because we have no where to leave our precious pups, we most likely will not be able to make it to every home game.  We may have a solution to that for next season though since Sam came up with a brilliant idea!!  He mentioned buying a house in CS!! How exciting is that!  We'll  not only have some place to stay when we visit but we'll also be able to bring Jake and Mia!!  We've started looking at some houses and next time we're in town we will drive by and check them out.  Hopefully Amanda and Artie will stick around for a while. ;)
