Guess where we were this weekend?

Hmm- give up?
Maybe this will help-

We went to the VT vs. BC game!!
Did the graffiti throw you? Yeah, I was thrown off too.

Jon's sister and her hubs have season tickets to Tech and they graciously invited us to come up for the game. And what's a football game without a great tailgate...especially if that tailgate is in an abandoned apartment complex complete with what I think may have been gang signs.

Goodness, they're cute (and not concerned in the least bit by a little graffiti)!

And as you can tell by our tailgating surroundings (and our beer of choice)....they spoiled us with nothing but the best!

We had so much fun....laughing, playing, posing, eating, drinking and hanging out together.

They love our kid & he's crazy about them too.
The day was perfect for a ball game- clear blue skies and crisp weather.

Also perfect for some brother/sister together time.

It was homecoming- and so the Highty Tighty Band and their Alumni were in all their glory.

I'm a sucker for a marching band- I always have been. Let's be clear- I wasn't IN the band....nope, no such talent in that area, I'm just a fan.

They were great!

But then....the boys hit the field.
The stadium was electric.

But not as electric as it was when they scored!

Can you see the people who are horizontal? They're being thrown up in the air to celebrate the score. Can you imagine?


So much fun!!

As the sun went down, the scoreboard was in our favor- great ending to a great day!

But Kathy wasn't done yet....what could make the day even better than it already had been?

Yup. That's kale salad.

Kale, yeah!!!!
Enough said.

Thanks Kathy & Mike....we had a blast!!
