Traditional Oyster Tailgate


This past weekend, we went to the Alabama vs. Tennessee game in Tuscaloosa and had our 2nd annual oyster tailgate. Oysters + Tailgating...sounds weird right?! Well, you see we Hayes' and former Hayes (me) sometimes like to step out of the box. We're crazy like that. My dad (The Dan Man) started the tradition at the last home Tennessee game so we decided to continue the tradition this year. The Dan Man didn't disappoint with the amount nor quality of the oysters and Jesus provided us with a beautiful day. Needless to say, it was close to perfect.

Kyle captured me doing what I do best..napping. Sometimes it's just nice to shut your eyes.

     Before the game, me and Kyle walked around the quad and visited with some friends. This has to be our favorite time of the year. We can actually go to a football game and NOT sweat to death. It's the little things that make us happy.

The game was fun. We won 37-6. However, what was not fun was the traffic we got stuck in coming home due to a wreck on the interstate. Let's just say we left Tuscaloosa at 10 and pulled into our driveway around 1:45 am. I still feel out of it. We did manage to get up Sunday morning for Sunday School, take a nap then make it to our SS social that night.
