Tailgating In Tuscaloosa

Saturday we went to the next best place other than home, Tuscaloosa, to cheer on the Tide as they took on MS State. 
We got there a few hours before game time... 7 1/2 to be exact. What a good long day of tailgating we had ahead of ourselves. Fulton was excited to see his KK and Pops and....

 His Aunt Keri and Uncle Pete.

Wild man was on the loose. He wanted to get down and get in the grass so bad, but I am not ready for grass stains on the pants quite yet.

 Our best attempt at a family photo without someone smiling. Hmm...

After lunch at the tailgate we headed one street over to see the parade. It was homecoming. Hooray. Fulton loved the band and the cheerleaders of course. Kind of had to shield his eyes when some of the majorettes came by because their outfits are so skimpy. Cute, but skimpy.

We met up with sweet Daniel, Claire, and Avery to watch the parade. Fulton wanted to give her some lovin but she was focused on the people watching.

 Sweet friends.

Then the Warrens came and tailgated with us and I got to snuggle up with cuddly Chloe. She is such a doll, even if she is wearing MS State gear. Poor thing.

We all made the trek over and braved the quad... yikes, I was scared we would go in and never come out. We finally made it to the Blackburn's tent and saw them for a bit. Vance had to clear a path for the cool people with the strollers to get out.

We headed back to the tailgate just in time to see the Walk of Champions start. We watched from afar and kept making our way back.

Look at those two manly men. Whitney was pumped because we were heading to the nice warm car with the little ones and the guys were heading into the game. We turned the seat warmers on and took the littles back to the Ham. It was a fun day of tailgating in T-town and Fulton's second official visit for a game day. Next up on the list, take him into a game... maybe?!
