The Tulane Game

Saturday started out full of excitement - our first home game of the season!
We headed to the stadium to enjoy an afternoon of Blazer football & had quite an eventful day . . .
There's Mama D with the boys.
She & Papa joined us for the game!
"Where are those football players???"
Oh, here they come!
Time for the Blazer Walk!!
Tailgate Time!
The boys w/ the UAB chaplain & FCA director - Jhun Cook.
(But we know him as Pas, our wonderful pastor & friend!!)
Pas & Mama D
Pas & his beautiful fiance, Sonya
(I think she might actually turn into a football fan soon . . .)
A new addition this year -
Train Rides!
Don't you love the jerseys???
They were a present this past Christmas to all the boys 
from Coach Callaway & Mrs. Karen!!
The football game before the real football game . . .
Someone sure enjoyed the band & dancers
during the little pre-game show
"Dude, come back! You're not in the band!!"
Hi Blaze!
Game Time
Not only was this our first home game, it was our first conference game. We have high expectations for our team this year & expected to play a tough game, but come away with a win. Things didn't go quite as we expected, but we still have high hopes for the rest of the season & know we can bounce back!!

"Dude, were you expecting this?"
"No! I thought we'd have this one in the bag."
"Well, what do you think we should do now?"
"Let's just eat our popcorn.
It tastes really good when you eat if off the bench!"

At the end of the game, there was at least one happy Blazer!

Sometimes we have to go through the bad before we can get to the good. Midnight always comes just before the break of day.  How else can we really appreciate the good times???

Keep your head up, Blazers! We'll get 'em next time!!
