"Buckeye Nation"

Our New Flag

So this term "Buckeye Nation" is a phrase I've heard thrown around in Columbus quite a bit. What it means is everyone loves their Buckeyes! It is crazy to drive around and see how many people have Ohio State bumper stickers, window stickers, flags waving, etc. Going to any store on a game day you will see entire families wearing their Buckeye gear. There are so many get togethers to watch games, it is so much fun! I think people love them so much here because Columbus doesn't have a professional basketball, football, or baseball team...so the Buckeyes have filled that void. Anyhow, we had a bunch of people come over last night for a BBQ and had a good time watching the game and hanging out. I cannot wait until we can go to the games!

It looks like you guys are having a lot of fun up there. I'm jealous of how many friends you already have, but that makes it a lot more fun.

Thanks for having us over! It was fun despite how terribly the Buckeyes played.

So fun. I think that is great. It reminds me of Texas and how crazy they are about football. The whole town shuts down for games. I wish Ogden was like that. With bbq's going on everywhere and sporting your teams shirt. Looks like you had a blast. I am glad things are going so well for you in your new home. It looks adorable.
