A House Divided

I am a graduate of Louisiana State University.  He is a graduate of West Virginia University.  Needless to say it is great fun when our teams match up for a game of football!  There is so much build up in our home leading up to this game.  Satch works himself up and spews out "facts" about his team vs. my team.  A boy can dream, right?  

Last year the game was at Tiger Stadium.  We went to the game and did it BIG.  We drove the RV down and made a weekend out of it.  We had the pleasure of joining some of our favorite Tiger fans, Craig and Jenni,  in their awesome seats.  This year Satch had class on game day.  Because of his school schedule we were not able to make it to Morgantown, WV so had to settle on the next best thing.  The big screen at our house.  Satch and Craig have been having a "healthy" debate over whose team would reign supreme over the past few weeks.  

The Vicknair family arrived at our house before Satch got home from school.  Craig had just enough time to display Mike the Tiger in our yard to greet the incoming Mountaineer.  It was so much fun!  

Here we are in front of Mike the Tiger.
Considering that Griff and Baby Bear belong 50% to their Daddy I felt it was only fair to make LSU/WVU shirts for them to wear.  I think Satch was quite surprised that I played fair on this.  I am sure he thought he would get home to his boys in head to toe LSU gear!  
  

Here we are with our favorite Tiger Family.
Needless to say Satch was seriously outnumbered!
Baby Bear enjoying a little swing time.
Pre-game fun in the back yard.
These 2 are so competitive.
They were competing on the Lil Tikes basketball goal.
These 2 right here.  T-R-O-U-B-L-E!!!
Half-time munchies!
 After it was all said and done.  The Tigers won 47-21.  The Mountaineers fought the good fight, but just couldn't hang with the mighty Tigers.  Sorry Satch!  At least you went down to the team that you cheer for every other day out of the year!  Geaux Tigers!

Satch, the ultimate team player!
