Baylor Homecoming Weekend

Baylor Homecoming is the best weekend of the year, if you ask me! :)  I've been going my entire life and have so many wonderful memories.  And this was already Graham's second Homecoming to attend!  Although I'm not sure how much he took in last year since he was only 2 months old! :)  But he had a blast this year!

 My packing helper on Friday morning!  And wearing his Baylor beads of course - they were his favorite accessory last week!

 Wearing Daddy's hat and his beads!

 Ready to go to Waco!  

Trent got back from his hunting trip about 12:30, and we loaded up and hit the road so Graham could nap in the car.  We made it about 4, rested a little bit, and waited for the cousins to get there!  We then went to campus for the pep rally.

 My boys!

 Caden loving the front row view of the band!

Crazy cousins!

The adults all enjoyed some patio time on Friday night after the little ones were in bed.  We were up bright and early on Saturday morning for the parade, and IT WAS COLD!  Thankfully the sun was shining, but the wind was what made it so chilly.  We enjoyed seeing friends and all of the floats!

 The band!

 Waiting for it to start, trying to get warm! 


 Dancing to the band with Bop!

 With Lana, Justin, and Libby!

 Me and Lana and our sweet babies!

 Family pic!  Love this!

We went home to warm up and enjoyed lots of time outside playing, eating, and watching football on TV.  It was so nice to have a few hours to rest and relax before the next event.

 Love them!  

 Homemade gut-paks - DELICIOUS!

 Graham and Colton playing - the Halgren's came over so Colton could nap too!


 We all headed up to the stadium to see March of the Bears and tailgate before the game.  It was a beautiful afternoon, and we loved visiting with friends, the awesome atmosphere, and just hanging out!

Summers and me at the tailgate.  The only pic I got!  I was a little busy chasing G around everywhere!

 Family pic at the game!  I took G home a few minutes before halftime so Aunt Katie could put him to bed, and then I was able to go back for the second half!  Thanks Katie...it was a treat! :)

HUGE WIN!!  71-7!  Bowl bound!

 The #1 Baylor fan passed out when he got home from the game! :)

We attempted pumpkin pictures with the cousins on Sunday morning...we weren't too successful! 





And then we hit the road home full of good memories and excited about our Bears!

 G fell asleep as we pulled out of my parents' neighborhood and didn't wake up until we got off the highway by our house - he slept the entire 2 hours and 45 minutes!

We enjoyed a couple of hours on our patio playing and watching football and just taking it easy!
So let me explain this picture - G points at EVERYTHING!  But with his right hand, he points with his middle finger.  Here he is pointing to the plane in the sky, although he looks like he's flipping me off! :)

 We gotta work on this whole pointing thing! :)






What a great weekend!  How is it already Wednesday again?!

  1. It was such a great Baylor Homecoming, again! I love all the pictures! The pumpkin pictures turned out cute even if Graham is on the move. Go Bears!
