Weekend in Auburn

Our sweet friends that just moved to Auburn, invited us over for the weekend to celebrate the trio's birthday and to tailgate at an Auburn game. Above is the cookie cake they gave the trio. My trio with their older triplet friends.
This is what it looks like when you try and take a picture of 2 sets of triplets.
Every now and then you get lucky and get one of these shots.
This is a very forced "Yes Mom" shot for me!!!
