Carter's First Tide Game

Well, after five seasons of watching SEC/Tide football from afar, we are BACK in the heart of Crim.son Tide country, and we couldn't be more thrilled! To celebrate the occasion, we decided to take Carter to his first game this weekend. We talked it up all week, and he was SOOO excited!

So Saturday, we dressed this lovely in her gameday finest and left her with the babysitter.

Then, we headed west to T-town to soak in the fun and experience the newly expanded stadium. Carter was so cute in the car on the way. Everytime we would see an Alabama flag or decal on someone's car, he would point it out and get all excited!

We had a special treat this week, as one of my best friends and her family were in town from Dallas for the game/weekend. We met up with them at the AXO house before heading into the game.

We headed into the game and made it just in time for the Big Bama Spellout!

We had to take a few in the stadium shots with Dad and Mom before the game started.

Carter was so excited that Popsy sat with us at the game, too!

We only made it to just before the half when Carter began to announce that he wanted to go home {which we expected}. So, we packed up and headed back to the car and made it home just about 9:00pm.

The experience of a football game is totally different with a little one, but it is so much fun to share our love of the University of Alabama and the fun of football season with our son {and eventually our daughter, too!}.
