Game Day

This year game day hasn't been as eventful.  In fact, it was close to noon before we turned on the TV.  What?  Brian and I seem to be very busy with the kids and the house and football has taken a back seat.  I know.  Hard to believe.  But as I say this, he is watching VT on the tablet through ESPN3.com and we have the Auburn/Mississippi State game on TV.  (I would like to be able to cheer for Auburn again but their coach doesn't seem like a very kind, humble person).

However, we still cheer for Arkansas and VT.  If you are on facebook, you should check out the video of the kids calling the Hogs from last weekend.  Arkansas plays tonight. 

Since it is a tradition for me to take pictures of the kids with Brian for the first VT game, here are some pictures from the past four years:
