3 of 78,000

On Saturday, Sandy stayed home with the twins, and we took Abby Jane to go down for the BCS celebration at Jordan Hare! What an amazing season we had- check this out.

We started our day with lunch at Byrons with the Muncies and Coopers. It was fabulous to get to see those sweet friends... and have our fav BBQ! Abby Jane to Kirkley: "Are you going to Auburn?" Kirkley: "Yes." There you have it, it's settled.

We had to sit in the upper deck by the time we got there because there were 78,000 people there- so, so amazing to be a part of. It was COLD and windy! But OH so worth it.
She was so excited! And so windblown! The twins would have been turning to little baby icicles.
This is as close we got to Cam. The next day, my mom-in-law sat one row behind him on a flight to LAX and got his autograph!!
You never want to put a man who you don't know personally on too much of a pedestal. But from what I do know about Gene Chizik, I put him on my short list of highly respected men of leadership.It was definitely one of those "Auburn family" experiences.
Three of my favs- my big girl, my man, and my school...
Like I said, it was really windy up high!
Sparkling beauty!
Learning how we roll...

As we were leaving, before most of the crowd got there. A nice little taste of the little celebration a few weeks ago!
