TP

Welcomed home from Oxford by the good ole toilet paper...



Cousins...Sort Of

So, while we were in the Grove, Oney was with his Sittie and Jidi, hanging out with the Krakers. This is Wes and Becky's son...how handsome is he?
Look who stopped by...Jacob Karam, the quarterback for the University of Memphis. He has been GREAT P.R. for the University. He is Lebanese, of course, so we have enjoyed keeping up with him. He is so talented and a great supporter of St. Jude. How could you not like him?
Yep...someone bought our lunch today in the drive thru. We of course, paid it forward....it feels so good to give to others-especially when no one is expecting it. 

Hotty Toddy

We decided to take off and take the kids to the Ole Miss/Texas AM game in Oxford. 

Judson and I have always tried to teach the kids how to be prepared for certain situations and to be prepared for the unexpected. So we made sure the kids had a photo saved on their phone of the Ole Miss campus in case they got lost and didn't have a network signal. 
Selfie...the kids love it when we take selfies 
We also always take pics of our tickets and have them on our phones in case we need to find each other...

The infamous...Hotty Toddy Potty
Abby and Jud checking us in to our favorite hotel...a Hampton Inn, of course!



Anytime we are at a college campus, we have to drive our kids by the SAE house and the XO house.

Every year for homecoming I have so much food to prepare/deliver that I have notes coming out of my ears. Check it out...



Judson and I transporting the float from the Nichols to the school. Easy does it!!!

Selfie?

The best entertainment...the teachers take the stage to sing and dance!Look how beautiful the sky is today!!!


Parade line up...

I love seeing Judson spending time with the kids during homecoming week. We work hard every year and do a lot at TRA but we get so much out of being there with the kids. 
Ally driving her float as tradition goes. 
Oney's class float.

The newest tradition at TRA...the "rocks"...I love that they copied UT on this tradition. They have copied Ole Miss on the Grove tradition. Two of the BEST college traditions around. 
This picture of Abby is GREAT!
Can you tell someone LOVES their little green tractor???




Sweet babies. They will be in high school before you know it. 

The girls and their friends...
