9/25/10: Our first Ole Miss game. Since that game, we were able to attend 2 more. One with Brent and Stacie and one with Jeff and Shaun. We hope to go to all the Home games for the 2011 season and beyond. We have grown to love Ole Miss, the official school of my favorite movie, The Blind Side.
In addition to loving football, we were able to see them play Fresno State and also the favorite Mississippi rival game of Ole Miss vs. Mississippi State. You are definitely either an Ole Miss or a State fan living out here and they love their football teams.
Michael is attending a program with Northwestern Mississippi called a 2 plus 2 program where he is wrapping up the Associates degree with NW and then he gets to attend Ole Miss for the Bachelors. We are very excited about the possibility of moving to Oxford for the 2 years. He can also take the courses at campuses in Desoto County where we live so if we end up purchasing a home before we move to Oxford, he can still get his degree from Ole Miss, which is a great accomplishment and we are very excited about that.
The team has tailgating in The Grove that lasts from Friday night at 10 pm until Saturday evening when the game is over. They take that very seriously as well. I've added some of the grove pics in the pics at the bottom. The fans set up tents with a full living room luxury feel, including their sattelite dishes and flat screen tv's and couches. The tables with the food are deocrated and the food smells yummy and there is alot of celebrating going on. We look forward to our friends and family coming to visit and attending games with us each year.
