The Quads’ 1st (of many) Aggie Tailgate!

Last weekend was the big Texas A&M football game against Arkansas- held at the infamous Cowboys Stadium! (Last year, we had some VERRRRY special guests with us when we attended the game- the Goerlichs and McNultys!).

This year, we had some verrrry special guests as well! The quads were SO pumped up for their 1st Aggie Tailgate. They had been talking about the “Aggie Party” for weeks!

Joe, Ethan, Andrew, Savannah, Me, Ben

We walked the kids down a couple of blocks from our tailgating site to watch the Fightin’ Texas Aggie Band march in. (Ben is beyond excited, can’t you tell?! ha. No really, he was!)

Savi lovin’ on the Reveille dog that her Daddy won her a while back. Sav was hoping to see Rev in person!

Ethan, Andrew, Ben, and Sav- waving to the band…aren’t they cute?!!!

Melt. My. Heart. This is how Savi and Benny watched the entire march in…hand in hand. PRECIOUS! These two love each other SO much.

There she is, Sav! There is Miss Reveille in all her glory! (Joe was trying to snap a quick pic while I was video-ing the entire march…must make a montage- the footage is priceless!)

Here comes the mounted cavalry! So cool.

The quads getting’ some lovin’ from their favorite Venezuelan, Auntie V (and her precious baby girl who is growing in her belly!)

We walked the quads up to Cowboys Stadium one more time, to drop Dadda and the crew off at the game. (E, B, A, S) Notice the looks in the background?…always. Cracks me up because I never really notice it at the time.

I was able to meet up with one of my good friends from college! Halford was the first friend I made at Harding---he is hilarious. One of the funniest guys you will ever meet. It was SOOOO good to catch up, even if it was for like 5 minutes (and even if you were wearing that ugly hog shirt! LOL)

Go Hogs…errrrrr……Gig’ Em!

and the ride back to our tailgate…thank GOODNESS Daddy got us a “rickshaw”. I was naïve in thinking that I could walk all 4 tired and sweaty kids back by myself (2-3 blocks)! We do not have the energy/stamina of the McNulty quads! Ha. It would have been bad, baaad, baaaaaaaaad! Winking smile

What was the score of the game, you ask?…

Ahh….its not important… We had a blast!

Okay, we are headed to Aggieland Friday for the Missouri game...was wondering where you scored that cute dress you're wearing. Is it a dress? These days, I need LOOSE as a GOOSE! Ha! And that just looks comfy!

Katie said...

I went to Aggieland Outfitters TODAY with a friend, and saw the cutest outfit and said IF I HAD A GIRL TO BUY THAT FOR, I WOULD SO BUY IT.... and now I see Sav wearing it!

Cute lil Ags!

I don't know if this is pathetic, or creepy, or just funny, BUT... after reading this post I was like, "Where the heck does she find normal clothes in those colors? I feel like the burgundy-ish color is such a rare find." Then I remembered a shirt I bought a few weeks ago. Turns out it's on sale and then you get an additional 40% off, and since I know you discovered your love for LOFT last year, I thought I'd pass it on.

They have it in cream, too. It's super cute dressed up or paired with jeans. :)

I know you are thrilled that the quads are finally old enough to carry around to the activities you and Joe like to do. Isn't it awesome!?!?
