ASU Homecoming

Last Saturday was a big day for us!

We love living in a college town and love getting to know so many ASU students.

Several girls from the cross country team go to our church and they had their conference meet last weekend and it was just about 45 min away so we went to cheer them on.  

The girls loved watching and cheering for girls they knew!  I, however, got so nervous as soon as I got out of the car...brought back memories of my own high school cross country days!

It's a 6k race but they ran lots of loops around a golf course so we were able to see them and cheer them on several times which was really fun.

Here's Macy (in the maroon and gold)

Payton

The girls with Kiki (and their little race snack!)

We have become an ASU family.

Though sometimes the girls will get confused and say...Sic 'em Bears!

(we will always be Baylor Bears in our heart)

Love the scenery behind us...the palm trees and the mountains!

After the race, we headed back to campus for the homecoming parade 

and our tailgate before the game.

This was no Baylor Homecoming parade (no candy??)

but it was still really fun for the kids to wave to everyone on all the floats.

I learned real fast that Baylor's definition of a "float" is very different than ASU's.

Here the girls are waving at everyone that passed by.

Too bad Emmy was asleep in the ergo...she would have worn herself out

since she still waves at everyone and everything that moves all the time!

Back over at the tailgate.

Do you see SG??

For literally an hour she held her hands on her head 

and was saying things like 

"I want my bed.  I want to go night night.  It's too loud!"

But before you think I'm a terrible parent...it wasn't loud, at all.

There was music playing across the street at another tailgate but it wasn't loud.

Here's proof that it wasn't actually all that bad!

Some of the girls at the tailgate...the guys were into cornhole 

at the time I think!

Emmy LOVED the tailgate!!

The two that didn't think it was "too loud" hanging out!

What a day!

Go ASU! :)
