This week we had to do what every southern family is doing right now just not publishing.
Celebrating the start of the football season!
So we had us a Razorback family night. Oh, yes we did.
We decorated the "tailgate" of my car with Hogs pennants and we all wore our Hogs gear.
Here were some decorations donated by the Massey-my-stuff-got-shafted-to-the-garage-when-the-baby-came-stash. We also put up the Fight Song and a mug shot of Petrino and Casey Dick.
We had nachos, bratwrst and boneless hotwings!
We even did a little face painting. Go Hogs Go!
Check out my little cheerleader and future football player
Um...don't ask
Then we had to begin with some spring training. What better way to start than with an obstacle course! We had to walk across some planks to a football throw into a basket. Then hops to some lines, weave thru the chairs and then get our trumpet out and CALL THOSE HOGS! Here's Belle kicking it off.

And here's Dmac on the run
Here was the football toss thru the hoop
The calling of the Hogs
Then we had the kids act out some football cherades. I'm sure you can guess what this one was...
For this one, Belle needed a volunteer...for the tackle...nana was afraid...
Lukey got to act out the whistle
We ended the evening back inside (after a few baths) with some "Hog Wild for Cookie Dough" and "Woo Pig Chewey".
And a football game, of course.
But I couldn't leave you without this video...sorry that it's sideways and my computer isn't really cooperating to turn it right now. But you'll get the gist of it.
For some more ideas and the lady that started it all go here and visit Heather.
Woooooo....Piiiiig....Sooooooieeeee!
