A fun weekend in Starkville.

We finally got down to starkville for the UT game this past weekend. This weekwnd was extra special because my whole family came, as Reid is at UT and Dan is at State, Randy and Juanita came down to tailgate with the crew. It was such a blast! We all had friends there... the Hills, the Gaskins, and the Scarbroughs, Kellie and Ryan Berry, family friends The Wheelers from Savannah, Reid had a crew their from Knoxville and Dan had college friends there too. Lindsey made Reid feel better by wearing orange, so he wouldnt feel like the only Tennessee fan in the family.
We should have one of those tags that says house divided UT/MSU..... (not really). Friday night we went to dinner at the Grill, an old college favorite...(yes, we ordered the cheese sticks.... unreal.) and headed down to campus bright and early on Saturday.
We all just hung out and ate lunch before the game, Dad grilled some shrimp and smoked sausage, then we all walked to the Stadium. Ok, was it hot or what?? And, did I mention that we got "lost" driving on campus. Seriously, it was depressing.
After State lost, (it was a great game though, huh?) we had our own little rematch at the tailgate. Reid and his 2 roomates, versus Jason G., Dan, and Ashley Gaskin. MSU won. We could hardly fit the ego in the car.
Dan is in a band called "Jamie Davis and Soul Gravy", for all of you local Starvillers, and after dinner at OV (yum, their bread) we watched them play. It was a great time, despite the loss. It was SO good to see friends... and family... it was just a great weekend. I hope we get to go again soon.
