shut the duck up

WAR - we're national champions- EAGLE! 


I am so glad the game is over.  It was exciting, nerve-wracking, and emotionally draining.  I stayed up WAY past my usual bedtime and at times I couldn't even watch the game.  Too intense.  Honestly, as soon as Wes kicked the winning field goal I burst into tears of relief.  

Reese crashed in my lap about 8:30 so we didn't make the trek to Toomer's Corner last night.  We did, however, brave the cold and ice to go this morning.  I just couldn't let this once in a lifetime experience pass by!

Incredible is the only word I can think of to describe it.  There were still tons of people milling around, mounds of toilet paper, and news crews everywhere.




This guy was a little in awe of the toilet paper.  He kept saying "Toy-et paper everywhere Mama.  They clean up mess!"

Glad we have the day off to nap and savor our victory.  Tomorrow it's back to the real world...

{And a side note:  I realize shut the duck up may not be a very lady-like phrase, but it's so stinking clever and funny I just couldn't help myself!}

I LOVE that picture of Reese! But please tell him to stop growing up immediately...he looks like a little boy!
