Alabama Football and Zoom-A-Thon

First of all Roll Tide!! Below I am with my friend Celisa. We met up before the Alabama - Arkansas game.

This is before the game. Thankfully, our seats are under the upper deck, so we are always in the shade and covered in case of rain!
Last week the kids had their fall fund raiser at school Each year they get sponsors for the run called, Zoom-a-thon! It is so much fun! I have helped out each year by marking the kids' shirts for each lap their run. There is loud music, the school mascot and the run mascot, Z. The kids love it!!
This is James' class making their first lap around before they begin running.
Sorry, this are out of order, James is on the left holding one of their class signs. This is before they begin too.

Annamarye and some classmates enjoying a Popsicle afterwards:)
Annamarye with her teacher, Mrs. Easterling.
James and his good friend Daniel. Yes, I see the Florida jersey! That is why I took the picture. I asked him if he and James would still be friends after we win the game. This was Saturday afternoon. They were so funny calling each other during the game. Of course Bama won!!

Football and Candy Corn

I don't know where last week went?! I started this post on Friday? and now it is Monday.

The picture on the left is Annamarye, Abby, Scott, Alex, and James. Abby, Scott and Alex are siblings. As you can see Scott is in the band at Alabama. This was taken before the Alabama - North Texas game. Johnny was in the band at Alabama with Scott's parents, Sam and Lisa. Wow!

We met up with them before the game.

This is our cousin Shelby. You may remember her from last year. This is her 3rd year on the flag team:)

Somehow my pictures got mixed up. Anyway, this is one of the treat bags I put together for the kids' teachers. I started out doing some fall colored hand towels. Then when the new White Chocolate Candy Corn M & Ms came out I had to add that to the treat. You really need to try them! But be warned, they are very sweet!

You can only find them at Walmart.

Here is Annamarye with Shelby and some of her friends. Last year James took a picture like this and was thrilled to show it to his buddies. This year he was a little too embarrassed.

Alabama Football

Last Saturday after James' football game we headed to Tuscaloosa for the Bama game! We met up with Johnny's cousin, Pat and his wife Leslie. Here's the picture James took.

They both went to Auburn and are big Auburn fans. Here is their daughter, Shelby with Annamarye and James.

I'm not sure if they have completely converted, but it is a start!

This is Shelby's 2nd year on the flag team at Alabama. Last year we weren't able to meet up with her to get a picture. I was determined to get one this year.

All of the band members were super nice! Shelby asked if the kids wanted a picture with a large group of girls. One quick snap and the kids were surrounded!
They both loved it! In fact this morning on the way to school James was showing this picture to Matthew and Tucker and I heard him telling them he hit the "jackpot"!

Roll Tide Roll

A friend posted this on facebook. It was just too good not to pass along! Roll Tide!

NEWS ALERT NEWS ALERT!!! Auburn practice was delayed for 2 hrs yesterday after a player reported finding a white substance on the field. Practice was suspended while federal agents were called in. After a complete analysis, experts determined that the white substances unknown to the player was the goal line!!! Practice... was resumed after the agents decided the Tigers were unlikely to encounter the substance again.
