We began this morning with breakfast with the Wilsons. Tony had made french toast and bacon, and Robby had made pancakes and sausage. I contributed with heating up more pigs in a blanket. We feasted well for breakfast.
Soon it was time to head to the Ouachita homecoming game. The game began at noon, and the seats that we found were nice and shady...until about the time that the game started. We knew this was going to happen, but there was no preventing it.
We looked for Reagan but tracked her and saw that she never made it to the game. She had to work a tea at 8 in the morning, so I guess that she was worn out. We did find Anderson during the game and enjoyed watching him.
The hogs were up at half time, and the sun was shining on us, so after watching one more series, we followed the crowd and left the stadium. We said bye to Anderson on our way out and headed to the campsite.
We had about 2 hours where we didn't have anything to do-it was very nice. I read until I decided that a short nap in the hammock would be nice-and it was wonderful. I snoozed for about an hour in the hammock.
Tony made quesadillas for supper, and I contributed cheese dip, chips, and corn. It was all delicious. After supper was cleaned up, we huddled around the tv by the campfire and watched the last Tiger Tunes show. I had hoped that we could see Reagan or Anderson a little bitter. Some folks thought they could see them briefly, but I never really did.
We did get to watch the overall awards-Reagan's EEEs might have been a little short changed because they only received 4th place. However, Anderson's Campus Ministries group ended up winning first place. (This is big since it is mostly freshman in the group.)
There was much cheering here for them, plus we could tell from the live stream that there was much cheering there as well. I'm sure that party will last for quite a while-Graham even went to the campus to join in on the celebrations for a little bit.
We cleaned up a little bit outside, but Robby and I didn't do our usual 'take everything down the night before we leave' gig. We left it up and will deal with everything in the morning. We have to make sure that the kids get off in time for church so we will be up early (unless we go back to sleep.)
