Family Rivalry

The Friday after Thanksgiving we headed down to Fayetteville, Arkansas in the rain.  It rained our whole drive there and never stopped the whole visit.  We met the Lowes at Hannah's dorm room and got on all our rain gear to watch our Tigers take on the Razorbacks.  We enjoyed visiting another stadium and rooting for our team despite the fact that our team did not do very well.  Hannah and Sarah definitely had some bragging to do for this round of the rivalry.  Since we were losing and soaking wet we decided at half time that we would leave the stadium and check into our hotel for the evening. 

The kids were super excited to stay at an Embassy Suites with the Lowes.  They had never stayed at an Embassy before and thought it was pretty great! They loved that our room had two separate rooms, the hotel's open atrium, snacks in the evening and of course the breakfast buffet.   We headed to the pool after a short rest and then for some snacks. Later, we got ready and all went to dinner at Chuy's,  then for some ice-cream and after eating too much everyone headed back to our room to tell stories and laugh.  It was a great evening of some much needed family time.
