Football Season Kick Off


Scott and I hosted the 5th Annual Football Pre-Kick Off Party at our house on Thursday, August 30th.  If you are new to my blog, this is a party we host each year at the beginning of the football season.  Our friends come over, bring their favorite tailgating snack, and enjoy watching the season's first college football game together.  This will be the last pre-kick off party at our house on Raleigh Avenue.  We will be in our new house next year, so it will be a whole new experience.  


Here are the photos from our 2012 pre-kick off party...
















As well as photos of the kiddos...














Once the season was underway, we were ready to "Roll with the Tide" to Dallas, TX for Alabama's first game against the Michigan Wolverines.  


On Saturday morning, Scott and I ran through Highland Park.  It was the most beautiful run we have ever done.  All of the streets looked like the picture below.  I could have run all day!  


After our run, we drove through the Highland Park area for awhile, and I took some pictures of my favorite houses.  Though pictures do not do them justice, they are worth sharing.




Jerry Jones (owner of the Dallas Cowboys) lives in Highland Park.  His house is just inside the wall below.  


We enjoyed lunch at Blue Goose before the game, then headed to Cowboys Stadium!



Cowboys Stadium.  Unbelievable.





The stadium was not all that was impressive.  The Alabama Crimson Tide played a great football game that ended with a 41-14 victory over Michigan.  Needless to say, our trip to Dallas couldn't have been better.  What a great way to kick off the 2012 football season!  

Happy Football and Roll Tide!
