Alabama

This past weekend we went to Alabama so Gabe and his Dad could go to the Alabama/Florida game. I mentioned before our little deal about college football, so yes Owen is wearing an Alabama jersey to take pics with the boys before the big game. Luckily for him Alabama is having another really good season!

While we are on the subject of football let me just say how sad I am about Georgia's football season. More than that, I am sad about how mean Georgia fans are being about our coach. I understand they pay him to win, however, I have a very special place in my heart for him. I don't know if it's that I feel connected to him because he was the coach while I was in college there or if it's that he is a Christian man who has been very vocal about his faith. Whatever it is, I really am sad for him and his family. I will always love, love coach Richt regardless of how many games we win or lose.

Okay, back to Alabama football. Gabe and his Dad haven't been to a game together since 1992, and loved every minute of their time is Tuscaloosa.

This is before they left. Owen didn't get to go on this trip, but he did look so cute in his little jersey. Maybe in a couple of years he will make the trip with Daddy and Big Papa.

Have I ever mentioned how obsessed Gabe and his Dad are about Alabama football? This is the truck they drove to the game...ha ha just kidding but this could be a possibility in the future.

All kidding aside Gabe really is obsessed with everything that has to do with Alabama football, including Nick Saban (or Nick Satan, whichever you prefer).

Here they are with Tyrone Prothro (he is the player who broke his leg really bad in the Alabama/ Florida game a few years back). He also made a really good catch earlier that season and Gabe has a picture of it in his office (now he has a signed picture).

And yes, this is the National Championship trophy (It is really hard for me to get excited about this). Maybe its the fact that we are currently watching the game that Gabe was at this weekend. Really? We already know what is going to happen, must we watch it again?
