This Alabama Life: A-Day for Champions

This past weekend I went to Tuscaloosa and stayed with Blake and Kat. It was a very fun weekend, I was so happy to see them. It had been 2wks! Tabitha, Raleigh, and I drove down right after work (around 5:30ish) and got there around 8.

Tuscaloosa is a way better drive than Auburn is, whew! Auburn is like 3 1/2 or 4 hours. So 2 1/2 was sooo much better! Once we all freshened up *you would've have thought Katharine & Blake would've been ready, but of course not! ;)* we walked to mine & Tabitha's boss condo because they wanted to see us! Their kids go to Alabama, so they have a condo to stay at during Football season. I thought it was just down the street from Blake & Kat's apartment, so we walked. I was wrong. It was still in walking distance, but we had walked wayyyyy out of the way, so it seemed like it took forever to get there. I was just thankful I wasn't in heels!

On our little adventure to the Robert's condo, I felt like I was re-living Cheerleading camp allll over again! Every year for Cheer camp we went to Tuscaloosa, and I walked those very same streets for 4days to go to camp. We finally got to the Robert's condo where my bosses,Nina and Terry, their 2 children: Erin & Brandon and Brandon's friend, Kent, were waiting on us. My bosses are so amazing that it didn't feel weird for hanging out with them! They are sooo funny. After we hung out there for awhile we went to Brandon's house.

The next day was the A-Day game. The game was at 2, but the gates opened at 11. It was a free event, first come first serve kinda deal. We all wanted to get there early like at 12, but did we? No. We stayed out till 3 in the morning, so of course our lazy bones didn't get up! :P We finally left B & K's apt at 1:30 (thank goodness the stadium is in walking distance.. they are so lucky to be THAT close!) We didn't realize there was going to be THAT many people there, so it took us FOREVER to find a seat! Needless to say, we had to walk up to the VERRRRRRY top, stand in line for awhile, and then climb up about 50 steps! I was starting to feel sick because we were THAT high up! OH! Not to mention it was HOT as crap. We only stayed for about 45ish minutes, and headed back to the apartment

. We went and ate lunch at Buffalo Wild Wings, which was horrible. The one in Huntsville was a lot better. They were not busy at all, but we waited for our food way too long than we should have! After we ate we went back to the apartment and took a "nap"... that "nap" lasted 3 hrs! Which made it 10 o'clock. We all got up, got ready, and finally went out at 11:30! I couldn't believe we were just getting our night started. We hung out at Brandon's house again, and had a lot of fun with him and his friends. We didn't get back to B & K's apartment till 5:30 a.m.! I was so tired, whew. The past 2wkends have been SO busy for me! I'm ready for this wkend so I can rest and relax!

Here are some pictures from the past 2wkends!
