Game Day!

Today is the first day of the football season! Eric can finally breathe again. He has been so excited for the games coupled with the fact that he didn't have to work today he couldn't contain himself. He got up threw on a pair of shorts and the ugliest Auburn shirt he owns. You know one of those hideously tacky bright orange ones with the eyes staring at you. I apologize to any of you who own a shirt that looks like that. Anyway, he didn't have it on long before Ben threw up all over it. I am sure he could tell it was an Auburn shirt. We knew we wanted to run some errands so i told all the kids to run up to their rooms and find anything red and white Alabama or orange and blue Auburn and put it on. They all took off. I first threw on a nice grey shirt thinking it would be a good shirt to wear but then thinking i might be mistaken for Big Al, i changed into a beautiful crimson shirt. Eric of course threw on the other tackiest shirt he owned (thanks to Mom and Dad for getting it for him for Christmas last year). The kids come down in their outfits. Ella is dressed in her Alabama cheerleader outfit. Score, 1 point for me. Jack and John in their Alabama football jerseys. Score 2 more points for me. Eric asks Jack about his allegiance to Auburn and Jack shut him down with a big Roll Tide. While i am doing my hair Eric dresses Ben in a less tacky Auburn t-shirt. I feel bad for him so i give him the baby. I am positive when he is older and can choose his outfit he will pick Alabama too. HA! In town we got a lot of looks but we had a blast. Getting the kids ready for bed and awaiting the wonderful night full of football and laughter as Eric screams at the T.V. :)

I apologize for once again posting a hundred blogs at once. Read them at your leisure. And i know some of you are probably wondering....the infamous "happy dinosaur" picture was found this morning. As Jack predicted, Eric couldn't stop laughing.
