A Great Day in Aggieland

There is no where else I would have rather been this past Saturday than in College Station. I got to help my littlest sister celebrate her 20th birthday, and also got to sit with my parents & Kyle and Ali for the football game. It was a great day! I am so lucky that Tori goes to school at my alma mater and that it is only an hour and 45 minutes away. And good game Ags (usually we jinked you and you lose games you should win when we come watch).

 

We brought binoculars in preparation for our 3rd deck of the zone tickets. Bailey was having fun as we walked around campus.

 

 

We got on campus right in time to see Ms Reveille marching into the stadium.

 

And with a little sprinting ahead Bailey even got the opportunity to pet her!

 

Then it was off to the kid's zone to get some energy out.

 

And finally we found our way to the front of Kyle field to head into the game.

 

 

One group shot before Tori was off to her seat and we were off to ours.

 

Happy Birthday Tori!

 

And as soon as we got through the ticket gate we ran into Kyle and Ali, which was a sweet surprise since we didn't ride together.

 

 

 

The helicopter flyover.

 

Our view of the game.

 

 

The jumbo tron announcement that Johnny Football broke some NCAA rushing record. Can you say Heisman???

 

One of Ali & I.

 

 

This is the point at which all Aggies and Aggie fans say together with the announcer, "Now forming at the North end of Kyle Field- the nationally famous fightin' Texas Aggie band."

 

 

It was Military Appreciation Game and the whole Corps of Cadets formed the block T.

 

 

After half-time we headed down to the "grassy knoll area", which is grassy, but is not a knoll and not at all what my mom pictured. It was still good for Bailey getting out her wiggles.

 

This was us on our way over there. Bailey is quite silly taking pictures these days.

 

 

Once there, I had to get a picture of where we were sitting- Do you see the yellow arrow WAY UP THERE on the right?

 

 

 Tori with her crew.

 

 

Someone loves her Gigi!

 

A silly one of her and Gigi.

 

One of me & Luke

 

Some tired feet- Tori, Bailey, &me.

 

This was our view of the game post half-time and a picture of the final score.

 

Since we were field level we got to see Johnny Manziel #2 leave the stadium.

 

Luke had to put me on his shoulders to get that picture.

 

One of the Mezgers.

 

 

And a huge thanks to Nana who was back in Austin with Blake and Blair. I took this when we were dropping them off and Bailey wanted in too.
