Daddy's Golf Trip and the Flora-Bama Bar

April 2012

Daddy goes on a golf trip every year - him and his boys call it the Woo Woo golf trip.  You will have to ask him why they call it that.  This year year they stayed at his buddy, Lee Jenkin's, beach house.  They went to the famous Flora-Bama bar.  I am sure you and your brother will go there someday with Daddy and you all can have lots of beer (when you all are 21)!  xoxo 

Fun Fact - The Flora-Bama Lounge and Package (aka The Flora-Bama or "The Flo-Bam") located on Perdido Key in Pensacola, Florida, is a beachside oyster bar, beach bar, and Gulf Coast cultural landmark, touted as being America's "Last Great Roadhouse". The Flora-Bama takes its name from its location on the Florida-Alabama border line.

LSU (1) vs ALABAMA (2)



November 6, 2011
Tonight was one of the biggest college football games of the century, No. 1 LSU vs No. 2 Alabama. Some called it the Super Bowl of Tuscaloosa. Daddy screamed "Tiger Bait" all day and had you chanting, "L-S-U, L-S-U." Both teams are in the SEC and both teams are awesome. Whoever won this game was headed to the BCS Championship game. This was for all the marbles.

The game was a battle of kickers and nothing extraordinary happened unless you love defense. In the end #1 LSU defeated #2 Alabama 9-6 in overtime. Daddy was freaking out. He was so happy and I was happy for him.

Coaches:
LSU: Les Miles
ALA: Nick Saban (ex LSU head coach and not one of Mommy's favorites, because he defeated my Sooners in 2003 in the BCS Championship game).

QBs
LSU: Jordan Jefferson & Jarrett Lee
ALA: AJ McCarron


We watched the game at Don and Francis Jones' house. Don and Daddy went to LSU around the same time.


You wouldn't put on your jersey all day because you said it felt "weird", but we finally got you to put it on. You looked so cool, although purple and gold?! Crimson and Cream are so much more handsome - don't tell Daddy!
