Fall Break Part 2: Mississippi Trip

At the end of Tony's Fall Break week, we packed up the kids and headed to Mississippi. First we stopped off at D & Dean's house. We had a great time with Tony's grandparents complete with tractor rides, delicious home cooked meals & lots of good visiting time. Tony's aunt Pat & cousin Karen & her new baby, Ryder, came to visit while we were there too. Ryder is just 1 month older than Evan and we look forward to watching the two boys grow up and play together.

From there we travelled to visit with Tony's grandmother, uncle Ronald, and aunt Lee. On Saturday afternoon we headed to Starkville with Robert, Kelly, Ronald & Lee to watch the Bulldogs (both of them!) play. Tony's dad & all of his uncles went to Mississippi State & Tony grew up a Mississippi State Bulldogs fan (until he went to UGA and switched to the REAL DAWGS!! haha...just kidding if you're reading this Robert!) so it was a game he has been looking forward to for years. We tailgated with Robert's cousins Mary Elizabeth, Eric & their 3 boys and had a great time (even though our Dawgs lost, AGAIN...groan!!!) We had a great trip and were so glad for family to get to meet Evan for the first time and see Owen too. Here are a few pictures from our trip to Mississippi...

...and this is how Owen spent his time, he LOVED playing football with the big boys!

Back at Grandmother's watching the Georgia game...I think the boys look SO much alike in this picture!!!

Evan ADORES Owen...and the feeling is clearly mutual :)
