Clemson Vs. Maryland

It was another gorgeous Fall day in Clemson.  We almost talked ourselves out of going, we were exhausted from the week, and really weren't looking forward to an early morning departure.  We sucked it up though and hit the road at 6am Saturday morning.  I'm so glad we did too.  Not only was it a great win for Clemson, it was a beautiful day spent in one of our favorite places on Earth.  I love Clemson, but I especially love Clemson in the Fall.  With all the leaves changing colors, it truly is a beautiful sight. 
The kids of course had a blast.  What great memories we are creating with them each football season.  One of our biggest accomplishments of the day was getting the kids to stay in the game until half time!  Doesn't sound like a big deal, but considering we are usually back out at tailgate by end of 1st quarter, it's a big feat for us.  :) 

Ringing the bell.  One of their favorite things to do on our walk to see Nana and Pops.

Emma was so excited about ringing the bell herself.



My precious 3 waiting for the parade.

My 2 brave ones with the Tiger Cub.  So glad he stopped long enough for us to snap a picture this week!

Emma and Andrew came to sit with me and Marc this week while Mary McLean went to sit with Nana and Pops

Yes, I was there too!  ;)  A rare picture of me.

CJ Spiller after running down the hill.  A truly great Tiger!  Andrew was so excited to see him there, he is probably his all-time favorite player.  They retired his jersey number (#28) at half time on Saturday. 

Andrew watching with intensity hoping the tigers can score a touchdown.

Emma practicing being a cheerleader.

Orange in the end zone!!!!!!

Having fun with "Jewa"

Love this picture of them.
