Nick surprised me with tickets to the Alabama- Ole Miss game a few weeks ago. We debated on taking Gabby but when we found out we would have to pay full price for a ticket for her we decided to wait till she is older to experience it. So, Saturday we woke up bright and early, dropped Gabby off at my sister's house in Birmingham(thanks for keeping her sis!) and then headed for T-TOWN! We got there just in time to see the players entering the stadium. I love to be down there on game day! Nick is a huge, HUGE Tide fan and when we're down there I can relate. I watch the games on T.V. but it doesn't compare to being in Bryant-Denny. Last year I went with him to homecoming. I was five months pregnant and miserable. Saturday it was a lot better. I don't know if it was the weather or the fact that I could walk 10-feet without feeling sick! We had just enough time to grab a bite, take a quick walk around the quad, and catch up with David and his tailgating crew before entering the stadium for the game. We had great seats! Of course we had the crazy drunks that kept pulling booze out of their bras. And beside us sat Nick and I in the future. It was a couple in their mid 50's that were Bama fanatics. They go to every game and every time we scored they kissed. My plan is to do travel nursing once Nick retires. He told me Saturday that I would have to find a job in Tuscaloosa during football seasons. It was a close game but that just made it even better.
