Homecoming

This past weekend was Baylor Homecoming. This has been a family tradition for many, many years. My dad graduated in '70, mom in '71, me in '01 and my brother in '03. We've also had numerous aunts, uncles and cousins who have graduated from BU, and currently have a cousin who is a junior. So needless to say, this weekend is one we always look forward to. And this year, Connor was introduced to this tradition. He loved the bonfire (I guess we'll be having fires this winter) slept through much of the parade and laughed and played during the ballgame. We're excited to take him back to the BU vs. A&M game next weekend.

Love the drool!
