Eric went to college at Louisiana Tech, and my cousin is currently playing volleyball there. So we decided to head over for homecoming and the football game, and watch Caitlin's games as well. We left Friday around lunch time and got there about 5:30. Carter did really well in the car, with the help of an hour and a half nap, the DVD player, and of course, my wonderful Mother in law who kept my boy entertained in the back seat! He did get a little restless, and the last 45 minutes of the drive was pretty rough! Once we finally arrived, we met my aunt and uncle (Caitlin's parents), Caitlin, and Eric's college friend, Mark for a nice dinner, then hung out at the hotel, visited, and watched the Ranger game.
Saturday was a busy day full of visiting the campus, making a trip to the bookstore to get our LA Tech gear, back to the hotel for lunch and nap time, next to the football game where LA Tech beat Idaho, then to my cousins volleyball game against Boise State (unfortunately, they couldn't pull it out), then back to the hotel to have Carter in bed (finally!) by 9:30. Whew.... makes me tired just remembering it!!
Sunday we were up and on our way home by 7:00am, and home by 11:30 for lunch. Carter did SO well during the long car rides, and considering how cooped up he was at the football game, he was a little trooper. He really enjoyed the girls' volleyball game, too. I knew he would, because he thoroughly enjoyed the last one of Caitlin's games we went to in Arlington. Something about the ball popping up and flying through the air, and all the girls yelling got him so excited, and really interested in watching the game.
It was such a fun weekend with family and friends, and I'm glad we went! Looking forward to our next trip!!
Taking a break from the car to stretch our legs and have a snack.
First time to cross the state line!
Look at that cute polo I found for him at the bookstore. Best part: CLEARANCE - $5!!
Roaming the campus Saturday morning
Eric was so proud to bring Carter there!!
Pretty "fowahs"
