Rain or Sun... We are there !!!

Rain... Sun.. or BOTH !!!
When we woke up Saturday morning it was pouring down rain in Birmingham. I told Michael there is no way I can sit out in the rain for an entire game.. I CAN'T get sick !!! Realizing this we checked the weather and decided that the rain was not set in for the day and the weather looked alright. Because of the 11:30 kick we headed out pretty early. The closer we got to Auburn we the more the sun came out. God Smiles down on Auburn, and that is a true fact !! By the time we parked the sun was a blazen' and it was hot. As I stuff our shakers and the million other things a person needs for a game into our Auburn bag, I grabbed our poncho's. Michael said do not bring his, "it will not rain". I said, "are you sure, because I am going to bring mine just in case".. He said "no".. So off we went to the game !!!
Us before the game !!!! We had great sits for this game and some sweet tattooed man said "God Bless" and gave us the tickets for free !!! Gotta love that !!!

Aubie leading the crowd in cheers !!!

And Here comes the TIGERS !!!!
We did our homework before buying our camera last Christmas. One thing we really wanted was a camera that had lots of "zoom" for football games.. Looking at this picture I took of Spirit I would say we accomplished that....
Oh was it HOT !!! The sun was out.. Then from the sun I feel.. drip..drip..drip.. So I get out my poncho (Michael looks at me like I am crazy).. drip.. drip.. DOWN POUR !!!!!!!! Ya'll I am not kidding.. Cats and dogs it was raining. It was crazy how hard it rained, for a total of no more than 10 minutes.. But that 10 minutes left everyone (everyone but ME and just a few others) Soaking wet !!!! After that the sun came right back out and it became super hot again.. Moral of the story- always be prepared and never laugh at me for being over prepared (I had even brought us a change of clothes in case that happened)
Me DRY in my poncho and Michael SOAKED with his poncho in the car !!! (dry or wet.. I do love this picture. Props to the man behind us that took it!)

Game almost over !!
Final Score:
AUBURN 27 Southern Mississippi 13

WAR EAGLE !!!!!!

You so crazy!! You get an A+ for sitting through that. You were always the stubborn one who wouldn't leave till the last second of the game!

Did y'all go to the game yesterday in Starkville? What a crazy crazy game. We watched every minute, wincing through all 4 quarters.

Of course, my Tide pulled out a big victory over Western Kentucky... I know, I know, they are just a "homecoming" team, but still. It was good to win big! :-)

Wow, don't you just love/hate the rainy games. Shaun never wants to take ponchos but I always want to be prepared...just in case. Good thinking! The pics are great too.
