back in Bama country

Last Saturday, Greg's parents invited us to go with them to the Bama game.  With all the wedding craziness during last year's football season, I didn't make it to Tuscaloosa for any games.  So, it was good to be back this week.  Saturday morning we actually made a quick visit to the Pepper Place farmer's market, but unfortunately by the time we got there all the goodies were mostly all gone.  We're going to have to make an effort to get up a little earlier next time.

After the farmer's market, we got home and jumped in the car with the Boggs and the four of us headed to T-town.  Greg's dad has some old fraternity brothers from their days at Samford University together, who always tailgate for the homegames.  So, we met up with them, ate some good food, talked and visited, and there might have been a little dancing involved. They are a fun group of folks' :)
  My sweet in-laws!
Our buddy Michael came by to hang out for a bit too!

We headed to the game, but actually didn't get to sit with Greg's parents.  They were in their season pass seats somewhere along the 40 yard line, about 35 rows up (I think).  And we were actually in some upper level seats right next to the press boxes (underneath "the Zone," if you know where that is!).  Apparently "the Zone" is the place to be.  Air-conditioned box seats with free drinks (and food, maybe?).  I was just happy to the in the shade!!  Oh, and we had seat backs, which was awesome.  So the whole game was cool, shady, and comfortable for us! :)  Can't beat that!
The game was good. We won, no big surprise ;)  We played Florida Atlantic, soooo....yeah.  I was just happy to be back in Bryant-Denny.  Hopefully we'll get to go to another game this year.  But until then, ROLL TIDE!
