2015 Football Season Week 12

Jake went to school Thursday & Friday, so we felt like he was fine to go to Auburn that weekend. It was the last game of the season that we planned on taking the kids to. We didn't leave until Saturday morning for Auburn, so it was nice to have just a low key Friday night. 

Hollon kept using the rug as a blanket. And for some reason, she played with this jar all morning.

Daddy's new truck made the best playpen! 

An empty cup make for great entertainment for a 15 month old

Jake was excited once his friends showed up.

The playpen works for the big kids as well

Kisses for Daddy

This is what her hair looks like if not pulled back with a bow or clip

I carried Hollon to the game in Bjorn and she slept the way there and the first part of the game.

Once awake, she was ready to go!

We The Bush's have the best seats for kids. We are right off the tunnel, no steps to climb and we have the 6 seats on the end. And we are the first row. (Rob & I's actual 2 seats are a few rows behind. But we usually sell our tickets and buy 2 from the Bush's.) The kids have loved hanging on the rails over the years. And I am grateful for not having to apologize a thousand times for my kids kicking someone in the back.

About the time Hollon woke up, Jake fell asleep in my lap. 

And this is why we don't take the kids to big games :) :) :)

Jake woke up before halftime and we stayed a until after halftime. We could have probably made it till the end of the game, but we were almost broke from Jake eating out the concession stand and I was honestly ready to head back.

The walk back to the RV

This is when being mama to a baby when you are almost 37 catches up with you.
It was a very long walk back.
(And no, Hollon is not wearing capri pants with tights.
They are pants, but just pulled up from sitting in the carrier.)

Daddy got stuck carrying Hollon's backpack.

Jake & Daddy looked like twins in their navy pullovers and jeans

Both kids were completely wiped out. 

We got back on Sunday, got changed and then headed to a birthday party. The boy is Jake's age and the sister is Hollon's age and their birthdays are only a few weeks apart. Sister bear was happy to wear a birthday outfit to celebrate her friend's first birthday. (Or she was just happy to have found toilet paper to play with.)

Once at the party, just hanging out waiting on her friend to come down.

All the older kids were outside playing. The parents all surprise attacked the kids with silly string. Jake thought it was the best thing ever.

I counted the whole weekend as a success, because it was the first time we came back from Auburn in the last 3 games without an illness!
