We train them early. Scott, Blaise, and Michael all know what football season is and look forward to it, with almost as much anticipation as going to Grandma's house. Daniel may not care for watching football in Death Valley, but he's mastered the fist pump and is very familiar with the Clemson Alma Mater. RoseMarie, at less than 6 weeks old, decided she was quite comfortable with the sights and sounds of Death Valley (okay, mostly sounds, she didn't really open her eyes that frequently.) They don't quite understand what the NFL is though, and will always say Clemson if you ask who their favorite team is- college football is where it's at. (Which is kind of ironic, because I grew up on the NFL and spent my Sunday afternoons in college watching the NFL. I used to roll my eyes at all my uncles when we would get together around New Year's and they would have college football on.) Yes, we took the whole family (and my friend Kim) to Death Valley last week for the Furman game. Hopefully tonight's game will be better played and another win.

| Tailgating... who doesn't love that? |
 |
| RoseMarie, enjoying our tailgate too. |
 |
| Kim put together a nice spread- and enough to feed us all twice and still have loads left over! |
 |
| Watching the band pre-game at the amphitheater. They all love the band. |
 |
| Kim got to take a bunch of pictures of all of us, always nice to have. |
 |
| You can't see Michael, but Cullen is holding both Daniel and Michael for running down the hill. |
 |
| This is how she looked most of the first half. |
 |
| Then we passed her around, but she was still totally asleep. Notice Michael watching the game. |
 |
| Daddy's turn. |
 |
| This is after the youth group that was sitting in front of us left and there was lots of space around us. |
 |
| Love the expressions in this one. Scott and Blaise both watching the game. |
 |
| It was hot. |
 |
| Another good family shot, thanks for coming with us Kim (and not just for the pictures)! |
And this will probably be the last blog post for at least a whole week... or you know 3 months, you never know.

Love that last family shot! Was even RoseMarie wearing a Clemson shirt or onesie? Well, one thing's for sure-no one can say you guys had a lack of team spirit :)
Watching the game right now & Clemson just got another TD so they're ahead by two of them now...we'll see if they can pull it out-bet you're enjoying your cable!
