This years welcome dinner for the Liberty bowl was at Autozone park. I remember going there to watch baseball games when I was in college, so it was fun to go back!
DJ did a great job getting the girls dressed and ready, since I was heading back from the St. Jude visit.
I'm always a little nervous traveling with the girls on a chartered bus. It confuses me, because I want the girls in their car seats and I want them to be safe. I felt more comfortable last year with G, because she was getting bigger, and I just wore MC in the bjorn, but I was really nervous this year with MC. Thankfully, our buses had seatbelts, and I made both girls wear them. I know I probably could have dragged their car seats on the bus, but they're huge and it's just so much to carry while already being overwhelmed. Anyway, here's MC sitting by DJ on the bus.
When we arrived, they sent the players to the 2nd floor and families to the 3rd floor. It was admitedly nice being able to have just families and our friends to interact with. However, they completly underestimated the amount of people between TU and Iowa State, and there ended up being no where to sit! Thankfully, TU arrived first, and we did have a table, but many people found suites or sat on the floor. Can you imagine, trying to feed G and MC on the floor!
When we arrived, we found our seats, got our drinks, and waited on the others to arrive, and for the food to finish being sat out. There was even a roasted pig. I was kind of shocked and already determined that I would not be eating it, but G however, was thrilled there was a pig, and told everyone she would be eating the pig meat. And, she did!
Dinner was really good, we had BBQ sandwiches, some of the best potato salad i've ever had, pasta, and the pig.
After we ate, there was entertainment for the kids in the players locker room downstairs. I was so glad that they had thought of our kids and ways to keep them busy and entertained!
Here's G showing off her ladybug ballon animal bracelet.
Then, she got her face painted.
He did a great job!
After letting the girls play, we decided to walk around for a bit and show the girls the park.
Then, we headed across the street to the Peabody hotel. DJ had never seen it, and I hadn't been since my senior year in college. (My sorority formal was there.)
We then went back to the event for dessert and to check out the trophies.
The players had a gaming competition, followed by a singing competition, and we were able to listen to the sounds of both teams singing.
It was a fun evening, but we were glad to head back to the hotel when it was over!
