Fun times in College Station!

This weekend we went to College Station to go to the Tech vs. A&M football game!!! Since Gregg and I have season tickets to Tech football games we were able to get tickets for this game through Tech and 16 of went to the game together. We had the best time while we were there and being at the game was terrifying and AWESOME! We acted like college kids all weekend going to Northgate on Friday night and then playing Power Hour after the game yesterday! It was so much fun to get out of town and be able to spend the weekend with such great friends!

We got to College Station Friday night about 11pm (Gregg worked that day so we had to wait till his sub came in at 7pm). Our first stop was Varita's, a wine bar, where we got to celebrate Tony and Callie's engagement!

Staci, Susan, Callie, me, and Courtney all posing with our rings!

After that we went to Northgate and to hang out at a Irish bar. I have to admit that we all felt a little old, extremely sober, and quite over dressed to be there! (The college girls there were very scantily clad!)

Saturday morning Gregg and I got up early and went to get breakfast from Shipley's Doughnuts!!! SOOO GOOD! Then we all finished getting ready and headed to the game. Our seats were on the 2nd row from the top in the end zone (meaning that we could just about see all of College Station from where we were sitting). We were miserably hot and their football stadium STINKS- we were told that the stadium is bat friendly and that is where the lovely smell came from! The game was intense but very exciting and I am very glad that Tech got it together during the 2nd half and pulled off another victory!

After the game we all went out to The Wood's house for dinner! Mr. and Mrs. Woods cooked brisket, chicken, sausage, and some yummy cheesey patatoes plus we had salad and rolls and then a graham cracker pudding dessert that was fantastic! After dinner we watched the Missouri vs texas football game. (I am a little afraid of the Tech vs texas game on Nov. 1) Then since we were all so tired and sunburned none of us felt like going out again so we decided to play a little game of Power Hour! Staci ended up sitting out the last 15 minutes but the rest of us made it through the hour. By the end of the game (sometime after midnight) we had ordered and devoured 2 dozen Double Dave's Pizza Rolls!

Today we all slept late and then went to the original Freebird's for lunch before heading back to Dallas and the reality of adulthood and jobs!
