Alabama vs. Georgia

Ahhh! Bryant-Denny Stadium can you hear the cheers!!!!

O.K. here are my pictures from the Alabama vs. Georgia game in Tuscaloosa. This very dark one I took shows one of NewsChannel 19's photojournalists Brad Hood with some other area photogs. That's what I started to do at the end of the game-identifying the photographers on the field and sending them text messages...like "Hey I see you on the field, I'm in the stands!" Anyhow on with the day....

These folks are our friends Trent and Christine. I like to call them our weekend warriors. We pretty much do everything with them. Including leaving Huntsville at 6:30 a.m. on a Saturday morning to get to Tuscaloosa to tailgate for a 6:45 p.m. game. I can't think of a better way to spend Saturday-not-maybe sleeping a little later. As you'll see from the pictures getting up early paid off.

This is Kevin and me in front of Bryant-Denny Stadium. Like our Bama shirts? Christine and I walked around all morning shopping for those shirts and ended up getting them from the vendors outside the stores. I love to shop. Since I went to Jacksonville State, I don't have that many Bama shirts. Kevin really doesn't-he's a Kentucky boy. He looks good in that shirt-don't ya'll think so? I couldn't believe he called us and asked us to get him one. I think he might be getting some Crimson in his veins....

O.K. here's Kevin's favorite picture...here he is posed with Trent in front of ESPN's tour bus. That's the Game Day sports anchors Chris Fowler, Lee Corso and Kirk Herbstreit. ESPN was in Tuscaloosa for their Game Day show. Alabama is now 0-5 with them in town.

Here is the team two hours before game time arriving to Bryant-Denny Stadium.

If you look real hard to the left you'll see Nick Saban in a gray suit in front of the State Trooper.

Obviously, we didn't get there early enough to get on the front row, and Coach Saban wasn't posing for pictures.

This is an up close picture of Chris Fowler and Kirk Herbstreit during ESPN's Game Day coverage.

After Game Day I met Desmond Howard. A Heisman Trophy winner. He's the reporter for the Game Day show .

These are just a few fun shots of Christine and I in front of Game Day. We got there towards the end of it.

Best picture of the day....

Georgia Dogs biggest fan...he calls himself Super Dawg. Isn't he cute. I had to get a picture of him. I thought now that is blog material. He is fine and fancy. I love them tights. I've got to get a pair to wear to the next game.

My New Best Friend

Here are some photos from our trip to the Louisville Zoo in Kentucky. I hope you all enjoy my zoo photos. Especially, the one of Kevin running from the Peacock. I think that one is pretty funny! Anything, to catch a funny photo of your husband. HA! Oh, and this day was oh so hot. Youch!

Here he is on the run from the bird....

I think this is a pretty cool picture. So I thought I'd share it with you guys. It's my new best friend. It's one of the gorillas eating some sort of lettuce.

I think I'll call him Eddie because they've already made a movie about Buddy.

These animals truly are special. I could've sat there and looked at that exhibit all day long.

The elephants are also cool. We got a picture of the new baby elephant with the mamma. How sweet. How interesting life is in the animal kingdom. Mamma's are just as protective of their babies as they are here in the human world.

And here's one of my favorite pictures I snapped of my hubby in front of the elephant exhibit. What a great zoo Louisville has I can't wait to visit it again.

Going To School

My sister left for Jacksonville State University last week. I am so proud of her. I took off the day to help move her in the dorm.
It was great getting to visit the campus. That's where I went to school. Go Gamecocks!


I think it's pretty cool that Caitlin's roommate is from Georgia-my roommate was from Georgia my freshman year. They also have matching sheets and bedspreads! Ditto for my roommate and me. How funny!
It was so weird being back on campus. I told Caitlin I would be more than happy to stay down there and show her the ropes. She declined that offer. You know I guess I'm just not as hip as I used to be. It was only 7 years ago. Hey, I still rock! I guess one day we all have to grow up don't we. NOT!

Appendix Picture-Kind of Gross!

O.K. so it has taken a while for me to post the pictures of my appendix. Don't ask me why? It just has. But some of you just kept asking for the pictures so here you are. They're not pretty! I'll tell you that.

It's important to note the thing hanging off the metal utensil is my appendix in the picture below!
I asked the doctors to give me my appendix in a jar. You know so I could take it home and.... I don't know what I would do with it. Look at it??? hahaha.
They told me in my doped up state of mind they could take pictures of it then give them to me. I said yea, that sounds great. I just want to see the darn thing that's about to kill me.
So ladies and gentlemen there is the lovely appendix that had to go about 4 weeks ago. I hope you all had lunch before tuning into this blog!! I promise more appetizing pictures next post.
