Last weekend, I flew down to Notre Dame for one last crazy weekend before I headed back over the pond to St. Andrews. I had a blast and got to see all 8 of my Vis girls who go to Notre Dame, the STA boys who go there, and Mary and Marie who were also visiting.
I arrived on Friday and went out that night with all the Vis girls!
Racine is a champion.
Saturday morning, we crawled out of bed and threw on our ND apparel for the first football game of the year!
We stopped and watched Sarah N's a cappella group perform on our way to tail gaiting.
They sounded fabulous!
We then walked over to the Deasey's and Martine's tailgates and got the ND game experience started off right.
Coincidentally, my uncle Carey and aunt Jess were down in South Bend for the game too with my cousins Ryder and Camden. We had a great time at their tailgate!
Jess with baby Camden at his first Notre Dame game. Soooo cute!!!
Ryder just a little bit excited.
Camden was quite the hit with the girls.
The game day crew!
Carey and Mary preparing for shotgunning.
Nothing like shotgunning beer with your uncle!
Carey puts us all to shame. . .
After our fair share of tailgating, we entered the stadium and Mary and I snuck into the student section.
Fighting Irish coming onto the field!
Ran into my girl Audrey at the game!
Touchdown pushups!
Just slightly happy that I got to do the pushups.
Half time came as a great relief as tradition states that all students have to stand the entire game except for half time. We sat down (finally) and enjoyed the marching band.
After the game which we won, we downed some ridiculously good food at Shannon's family friend's townhouse and then went back to the dorm to rest. Despite being extremely exhausted, we managed to rally for one last night out!
Mary and I not quite ready for another night of fun.
Ok, maybe we can rally.
Love you Elle!
You too Shan!
I had the funnest (it's a word, ok) weekend ever with all of my Vis girls. Thanks to all of you for having me at ND! Don't worry, I will be back! Hope you all have a fabulous year!!!!
