UGA Homecoming 2010

We went to Athens today to celebrate Homecoming - Emily was able to spend the day at Grandma's house, so Caroline had Mama and Daddy all to herself. We met up with the Browns and went to campus to watch the Dawg Walk, meet up with the Varnells, and enjoy campus for awhile. We didn't even try to get tickets to the game, since Caroline still, at this point, has more fun playing around during the game than actually paying attention, so we all headed back to Jennifer and Gardner's and grilled out and watched the game from there.

We got to the Dawg Walk early enough to grab a spot right at the fence and Caroline was able to watch the cheerleaders, Hairy Dawg, and entire football team up close. She had a blast! Since it was Homecoming, there were lots of alumni around to celebrate, and so we were able to make friends with the Class of '61 Cheerleading Squad and posed for some pictures with them. The weather was perfect and the Dawgs notched a huge victory over Vandy, beating them soundly 42-0.

"Some people think football is a matter of life and death. 

I assure you, it's much more serious than that."
