A Different Kind of Southern Girl: September 2008

Ahhhhh! The first Alabama football game of the season was on Saturday....I can't begin to describe how happy that made me. I love nothing more than Alabama football and hearing a football game on t.v....it's all so comforting. My college days were some of the greatest times of my life. I had awesome friendships at school...some of which are still going strong (thanks to my friends for keeping the communication up...I suck!) I tear up every time I see the first football game of the season.I flashback to every wonderful, crazy, stupid, delicious, first time moment from those days. My home is truly in Alabama.

So, I put on my Bama earrings, ring, bracelet, flip flops and hat and headed to a pub with my hubby, family and friends. Amazingly, my best friend Nikki married a guy that went to Bama the same time I did....what are the chances...especially in Texas!!! She has become a true Bama fan which makes me all the happier. I also dragged out my BFFFFFFFFF, Jason. He is not an Alabama fan but came along for the ride and yelled Roll Tide at every proper moment to make me happy....Love You Jason! (Side note: Jason is a catch, any single girls out there in Houston would be lucky to date him!)

I was so happy on Saturday. I had my mom and dad decked out in Bama attire cheering along with us, some of my closest friends with me, chips and queso and the best freakin cheeseburger I have EVER had! And by the way....WE KICKED THE SHIT OUT OF CLEMSON!!!! Bama was ranked #24 and beat #9 Clemson...we are now #13. ROLL TIDE!!
