Marroon Out!

Pily, Bryson and Jackson at the Century Tree.
Honoring Reveille.

Bryson, Connor and Jackson on the bus to Kyle Field.
Guess where we went?!?!
Yesterday we drove down to College Station. My friend, Stefanie, and her son, Connor, went with us. We left early in the morning and arrived around 10:30. Stefanie was able to see her daughter, Katelyn, who is a freshman at A and M and I was able to see my little sister, Pily, who is in her second year there. Stefanie and Connor went to the game and Pily showed us around their amazing campus! We walked all over that place. They boys favorite place was the convenience store in the MSC!

I made a huge mistake yesterday and didn't realize it until we drove into College Station. I wore an orange shirt! Yes, that's right, orange! Jackson did, too. I really didn't think about wearing marroon. I don't have a marroon shirt. Bryson wore his A and M shirt, but Drew got him dressed yesterday. Jackson doesn't have an A and M shirt, and Drew just happened to put an orange shirt on him. I didn't even realize Jackson and I had on the same color shirt until we got in the car. My shirt really stood out yesterday, though, among all the marroon! I know people thought we were Longhorn fans. I felt like I was stared at all day! I thought about buying us a t-shirt at the bookstore, but I'm cheap! I was waiting until we went to the tent sale! Jackson has a shirt, now, but I still don't. I didn't find anything really cute that I wanted. Next time I go, though, I WILL find a marroon shirt. I will NEVER wear orange to College Station again. I promise!

We finally got home last night around 9:30. When we were in Waco I noticed a Valero station had gas for $2.61! I had enough to get home, but I had to take advantage of that price. After about 10 minutes I thought about leaving, but we already had time invested so we stayed. We waited in line for over 20 minutes just to get to the pump, but when you drive a Suburban it is worth the wait! I haven't seen it that low in months! Hopefully, we will see that price around here soon.

So, our very short road trip was fun. The boys enjoyed playing together and Stefanie and I had some good conversations! Thanks for going with us! I hope we can do that again some day!
