Football Weekend, Vol I

Horsing around with
Uncle Andrew

This weekend has gone by in a whirlwind. We spent Friday night getting everything packed up to head to Knoxville. The alarm clock went off at 5:30 yesterday morning which is earlier than we get up during the work week. For some reason neither one of us minded to be getting up though. Nonna met us at our house and we were on the road by 6:30. We made excellent time on the way up there and did not have to stop either. When we got to our hotel we realized they had screwed up our room reservations. Paul had called earlier in the week to make sure we had the right number of rooms reserved with the right bed configurations. When we got there the hotel said they had our room booked for Friday night instead of Saturday which is opposite of what we needed. To top it off they admitted it was their mistake but they still had to charge us for Friday night and they were booked for Saturday night...so we had no where to stay. Paul was very upset and rightly so. Their was not a manager on duty that could help us. We hope to get it straightened out tomorrow so they will not charge us for a room we never stayed in!

Andrew and Mandi had driven up the night before so we all headed to Turkey Creek to do some shopping and grab lunch before heading to campus. Once Bill and Paula got there they took over "Luke duty" for a couple of hours while the rest of us went to set up our tailgate!!!
