Aggieland

We checked off another item of our "Bucket List" this weekend - taking the girls to College Station for a game day. We headed out Saturday morning and arrived in town just in time for lunch at CJ's BBQ in Bryan, which was surprisingly empty. Then we headed to campus. We walked all over, showing the girls all things Aggie:

Finding Great! Grandpa Scott's name on the wall at the Association of Former Students:

Watching the Cav parading around. Claire got lots of practice at Gig Em-ing.

Playing under the Century Tree:

Posing with Sully:

And strolling the halls of Zachry:

By the time our tour of campus was complete, we were ready for step-off on the Quad. We found some of J's buddies and caught up with them while watching the spectacle. Neither girl was crazy about cannon booming, but Claire was tickled with her chance at petting Reveille. We walked with the Corps to Kyle, petting Reveille every chance possible, then continued on to dinner at Mi Cocina. (Either they've gone way downhill, or my standards are much higher now....) We got back to our car right at kick-off. I can't think of a better ending to our fun day than the sound of 90,000 Aggies yelling in the background.

Oh, and for the record, the Aggies beat OU 33-19. Whoop!
