C-L-E-M-S-O-N!

I hate to have to do this post after such a tough loss to Auburn on Saturday...sheesh! 

But nonetheless, Mills had a blast at his first football game the weekend before! :)

He was not so sure about crawling on this crunchy grass stuff!

Making a beeline...

for the cooler!

Dear Mills, you are not 21 - stay away from the cooler, mister man. :)

It totally looks like he's wearing a dress here, I'm aware of this. Gammy bought him this precious little outfit that I picked out at a boutique here in Charleston (Vive La Fete has presh little collegiate line). However, I bought it a tad too big, therefore it ballooned over like a little dress and I got lots of "Oh she's so beautiful"'s throughout the day. Ha! Sorry, buddy! Next year we'll have ya in a little mini uniform or something very manly like that! :)

(The good news is that I could use it in the future on a girl or boy, ha!)

Tailgating with mom and dad!

And Gammy and Philly!

Fun w/ Daddy

Probably my favorite pic of the day - "This is SO much fun!"

Stretching out his throwing arm...warming up, you know.

He drops back...

And passes it...TOUCHDOWN Tigers! :)

Inside the game,

he wasn't quite sure what to think! There was so much going on and he just stared and stared at everything and everyone around him.

My little future Clemson alum! :)

He got to see the "Most Exciting 25 Seconds in College Football!!!"

the Tigers running down the hill!

There was WAY too much going on to get him to look at the camera!

My mom and I took Mills into the game, while Nicholas and Phil went to the Esso Club to watch the Miami game...yes, the games were at the same time, and no, Nicholas was not going to miss Miami vs. Ohio State to see Clemson vs. PC - can you believe it?!?!? ;)

We sat in the stands for the first quarter, then we had to go underneath the stadium b/c it was sooo hot, and somebody wouldn't take his bottle b/c of all the action around him...and this little somebody is not one to miss a meal...I mean, have you SEEN those thighs?? :)

So we found a nice, shady spot and parked it!

Funny enough, there were about ten other kids and parents/grandparents doing the same thing! I had never even noticed that before...although my priorities while attending games and sitting in the sorority block (or standing down on the field) were a little different I suppose...

sweet face

And of course Mills enjoyed a little playtime.

And after all of that action...

this little tiger was out!

Hey, football can be physically {and emotionally} DRAINING...don't we all know that too well!?!

Thankfully we stomped PC, but we'll see what the rest of the season holds in store!

We also had fun getting to visit with the fam over the weekend - Mills was giving lots of kisses out to Miss Peyton, and showing off all of his new tricks! :)  The poor thing came home majorly lacking attention...can you imagine???

{AND my mom did all of our laundry from the week before...just like the college days...gotta love her!} :)

We look forward to lots of football fun with Mills in the years to come!
