It's Football Time

College football has officially begun!  And it's weird not being there for every game.  After 5 seasons of Aggie football, we no longer have sports passes (season tickets).  But we did go to the game this weekend, so it hasn't felt that different yet.  Lauren and Mark came down and we went to the game together.  We went to the tent sale, though it's not like we don't have enough Aggie gear-lol, then we we went to Layne's.  It's SOOOO good, and only found in College Station.

Then we went to Blue Baker and got the best cookies in the world!!

Our seats were WAY up in the zone.  But noone was behind us so it was really nice we got to SIT!!!! and we got to spread out some.  Russell was really enjoying his space.

In the end it was a pretty good game.  We won 41-6.  We left the game with about 7 minutes left on the game clock (I know 2%ers) and we were on the first bus out.  We had to go by Barry's apartment to drop off his parking pass, and  then we went to FreeBirds.  The route we chose had NO TRAFFIC (a miracle on gameday).  We got to FreeBirds and the line was relatively short.  Within 5 minutes of when we got there, the line was to the door.  Over all our escape route out of College Station was stress free and not a trafic nightmare.  I was very impressed and we made it back before midnight.

We are enjoying the rest of our time with Mark and Lauren.  I miss them and want them to move to Houston- lol.  I don't think it's going to happen though :(

On a side note: The bowling thing didn't work out.  Apparently league bowlers monopolize the primetime spots.  And you can only bowl after 9 or 9:30.  And when Russell goes to bed at 10 or 10:30 that isn't gonna work.  Oh well.  We tried.
