Fresh Cut Grass and Baseball

We haven't found too much to do in Mobile yet. It is really ok. I need to be studying and Ben will be working soon, so we aren't dying here. We have a few great friends and it seems that every social outing we have these days seems to involve food!!! So we definitely aren't starving. But we did have the pleasure of catching some FANTASTIC college baseball this past Saturday :-) University of South Alabama vs. University of Alabama. There were some great hits, several home runs, and even (GASP!) umpire chest bumping!!! At least that's what Ben told me.... haha!

I was busy being neurotic, reapplying sunscreen, hair up, hair down, drinking my coke before the ice melted, checking my facebook status, trying to catch the players in great photo poses and dogging the "Diamond Girls", who in fact, ran like the girls who couldn't get on the softball team (I am talking, toes first and pinky fingers up) while trying to catch a glimpse of the opposing team.....

The last inning was terribly exciting even for a girl like me who hardly knows how many innings there are! The final score put the Jaguars tearing up the Crimson Tide, with a 10-9 finish :-) GO JAGS!!

All in all it was a great day with lovely weather, bumping into my Aunt Jan and Uncle Dennis at the game, and leaving with a box of Thin Mints courtesy of Ben's wallet and our local Girl Scouts and knowing that the only place the Tide was rolling was out of town with an "L" next to their name.
