I’m so glad our good friends and University of Georgia graduates asked us to attend a football game at their Alma Mater. We’ve lived just 30 minutes from Sanford Stadium for the last five years and we are big football fans (even attending our hometown’s high school games) but never made any effort to enjoy a game in Athens. We finally did on Saturday as UGA took on Coastal Carolina and it made for a great memory.

Go Dawgs!
The day began with a healthy amount of tailgating with some bring-your-own-portable-satellite-dish-and-tv pros. They even had a skillet plugged into a generator to make eggs and sausage and a margarita maker ready to serve. Andrew and Nate couldn’t be there for this part of it because Nate’s first t-ball game of the fall season happened that morning (they won 17 to 3!) but Nia and Camille made the most of it by exploring the wooded area near our tent, playing cards and propping their feet up while eating some pre-football fixins.

Go Fish on Football Saturday
The adults had our own dose of relaxin’ and fixins, including a tasty blue alcoholic beverage that Ginger concocted.

Happy Ginger

Blue Drink Cheers
The weather was beautiful for football but the sun and heat during the game made Nia and Nate duck for cover under our bleacher seats.

Nate Still Wants to Watch
True and tiny Dawg fan, Camille, didn’t want to miss any of the excitement and stayed above the seats to see the sights with her mom and dad.

Mommy-Daughter Fans!

The Dawgs went on to win 59-0 and Nate wanted the action to continue even after we left. Touchdown!

Love this post for about a billion reasons! We had such a great time with you guys and are glad you were up for the adventure!
