A Weekend At The OTHER School

Ready for a loooooooooong post???? There are so many good pictures from our trip to Austin this weekend I couldn't narrow it down or leave out any details!!! A group of 9 of us started out the roadtrip to Austin, Texas on to watch the Fightin Texas Aggie Men's Basketball Team take on t.u. Packing up to head out!!!

First stop was what we all called the "Halfway Cafe" named by Travis. The Elm Creek Cafe was located halfway between College Station and Austin on Hwy 21 and man it was soooooo good!! Travis was looking forward to the chicken fried steak and boy oh boy was I ever thankful for mom's homecooking. I really couldn't believe that some families don't get this meal cooked at home! It's like a luxury or a delicacy!! I just stuck with the grilled cheese...but man it was good!!

Girls! Girls! Girls!

And the whole caravan!!

It took us awhile to finally make it to Austin with the stops and dinner and trying to park when we finally got there!! Geez! The parking in Austin is terrible!!!! But it felt good to have finally made it!!


The next day we were worn out!!! And had a whole day to kill!! So what else would college kids do??? Take a nap!!!! It was certainly nice to lay around and relax!!

We finally got ready to head to the game and in order to save money in parking we loaded the truck down!! 14 people in one truck!!! Have you noticed that we accumulated more and more people as time went on.

Bed of the truck shot!

Headed to the game!!! With our one longhorn...Alayna!!!

The Frank Erwin Center....or as dad kept calling it "the Drum" It was bigger than Reed Arena and due to a college budget we were in the nose bleed section, but we still had a great time supporting the Ags!!

Nathan!!

Friendship Divided!! Yes I had to sit next to Alex during the game and as we were slowly defeated, but just wait til t.u. steps into Reed Arena and surrounded by the 12th man! We will have our revenge!!!!!!!!
