Compass Bowl

William asked for tickets to the Ole Miss bowl game for Christmas so that is just what he got!:)

We headed to Tupelo from Sardis the night before. That was half way from where we were staying.

We stopped in Oxford for some Ole Miss clothes shopping and lunch and Handy Andy Grocery. It was great! Can't wait to go back! Wish we had eaten there when we lived there.

After lunch we headed to Tupelo. We checked into our hotel and went for some more shopping. I got the pink sparkly toms I had been wanting for $20! SCORE! And a Ole Miss necklace!:)

Then we headed for a steak dinner and back to our room for sleep. That was my 1st night without being with Maddie. I did ok but woke up at 4:15am and couldn't go back to sleep but that's ok we were getting up at 5 anyway.

My new necklace and blingy shirt!

We got up before the sun was up and ate IHOP for breakfast then headed to Birmingham.

The Compass bowl had a fun photo booth.
Loved this hat!

I so enjoyed my time away with my sweet hubby! Can't believe its been almost 10 years.

William snapped this picture while we were waiting on the buses to arrive.

Waiting on the team, just like in the Grove.

Everyone waiting...

The buses arrived and everyone sang Hotty Toddy.

Here comes the team!

3 paratroopers dropping in before the game.

The last one landing.

The team coming out before the game.

After 9 days, 1800 miles and having a lot of fun we made it home!

One day before Maddies nap we had been watching TV and I said let's go nite nite and turned the TV off so she went and was pushing buttons trying to turn it back on. Little stinker!:)

Morning CHEESE face!

Ring around the van...haha!

Running circles around the living room and Jack.

We stayed in our pjs most of the day Friday and watched Snow White per Maddies request.
