Mizzou's Class of 2029...no pressure

Marie doesn't know it yet, but she's a Tiger and bleeds black and gold.  With a Daddy and Mommy (and Nanny and Uncle) who all graduated from Mizzou, she really doesn't have the choice to attend any other college.  Ok, we're not that demanding, but she would really have to convince us to go somewhere else.  We do have just one request, please not KU.

With gorgeous weather this past weekend, we took the little lady to Columbia for her first visit to Mizzou.  Also, with it being the day before classes start, there was a lot of hustle and bustle....Seniors not even on campus, Juniors socializing, Sophomores rekindling with friends and Freshman walking around campus with maps trying to find their classrooms.  Oh, and plenty of Frat guys in Greek Town watching everyone drive/walk by.  It was good to be back on our old stomping grounds...even if we were 7 months pregnant, while pushing a stroller. I love that place!


Even while she was "cooking", she was destined to be a Tiger.

Days after she was born, Daddy decked her out in Mizzou gear to watch a big game.

All smiles on the ride out to CoMo.  She did really good for her first long car ride.

Pit stop at the bike rack before hitting the Quad.

Playing in the Quad....typical Marie had to count the columns.

Not one bit intimidated by Jesse Hall.

Practicing her M-I-Z...Z-O-U cheer!

Daddy and Marie at the columns...I decided to spare myself embarrassment (and possible injury) by NOT jumping up there.

On the way home...dreaming of 2029...
