well, folks. we survived our first week of kindergarten. and after a few sleep adjustments and attitude adjustments, i think we are all starting to get the hang of it. now i need a nap.
here's a peek at our week:
1) it may not have been the best idea we ever had, but we decided to take ben to his first (really his second, but he was 6 mos. old the first time, so it doesn't count) texas a & m football game. this expereince is usually a good time for all, except when it's hotter than the surface of the sun outside.
after walking what felt like across town (considering the turtle pace of our five-year-old) from our car to the stadium, we quickly realized we weren't going to last very long. our goal was to make it to the beginning of the third quarter to see johnny football play for a hot minute. and that we did.
we let him dunk his head in the fountain for relief.
he thought that was awesome.
by crouching in the shade outside the stadium before the game, we happened on the coolest part of our day: watching the team walk in. i snapped this cute picture of our cute coach, looking all cool and cute. xoxox coach sumlin.
ben and his earplugs.
now i know i am making myself sound incredibly old here, but back when i was in college we walked barefoot, uphill, in the snow to games everyone wore maroon tshirts with shorts or jeans and flip-flops or tennis shoes (which personally i would much rather sweat through than my nice clothes. just sayin'.) ummm, these little nineteen-year-olds have really stepped up their game. after i picked my jaw up off the floor, i tried to snap pictures just to prove to my college girlfriends that i wasn't lying. oh, and does no one gain the freshman fifteen anymore? damn them. these cute things were all walking around in socks while holding their boots by the time we left the game. smh.
on trend: LACE (skirts, shorts, dresses), cowboy boots, daisy dukes and ohmygod the bows. giant BOWS. wtf? when did that happen?
zoom in to see the size of that thing.
o.k. i'm done now.
gig 'em and god bless 'em, benjamin.
2) crosby started school (hallelujah, thank you jesus)! even though his school is still considered mother's day out, we sure did pose by the sign that said preschool that they so kindly provided out front.
his cousin goes to the same school. this is how they "hug".
my sis with addy. as crosby would say, "she cuuuuute".
looking forward to cold beer and good music at the untapped festival tomorrow.
how was your week? what are you looking forward to?
love,
coco
