USC Game

Last Saturday (Nov. 1) we went to the USC vs. Washington game. We've gone three years in a row thanks to Tim. USC is his almamater as well as Caitlin's. Anyway it was not only homecoming but it was Maddy's first game so I felt it appropriate to dress the girls accordingly. I found a little USC pink and white jersey for Maddy and a gold and burgundy USC t-shirt for Rei. I made Reilly a matching bow and off we went. We caravaned down to L.A. with Tim and the Kelsey family. It rained during the majority of our drive to the Colosseum but it stopped by the time we were ready to unload and begin tailgating.

Caitlin and Billy met us there with some amazingly decorated cookies. After we got everything set up Jill and I walked around with the kiddos while Heath cooked and Tim, Nick, Billy, and Caitlin played cards. We had a really great time. Oh yeah, and there was a TV crew that was filming several of the tailgating set ups. They stopped by ours and filmed Maddy and Ria in their USC attire. They also wanted to know how family friendly the pregame activities were and why we liked coming out with the kids. Tim was amused that they interviewed me because it was after all, "only my third game ever"!

Just as we were packing up it started to rain again, but it was short lived and the weather stayed dry throughout the game. USC beat Washington 56 - 0.

Thanks for taking us Tim we had a fabulous time!
