Payton's 1st visit to Gainesville

Since we were practically driving right past Gainesville on our way home from NC, we decided to make a little detour and stop by Gator Nation. Payton was so excited to see all of the places we have talked about, plus visit the trophy area on campus where they house all the National Championship, SEC and Heisman trophies.

As many of you may know, Payton really idolizes Tim Tebow. We are happy to indulge him in this, as we think Tim is a wonderful role model. Everything about him - from his undying gratitude and acknowledgement of his faith in Jesus Christ, to his lack of selfishness, to his incredible respect for his parents, coaches and teammates - he is just an all-around great guy. So we were very happy to show Payton all of the Tim Tebow memorabilia that is around campus.

And even though the Gators weren't able to finish out the season as we had hoped, we are still Gators through-and-through and very proud of them. "I said it's great, to be, a Florida Gator!"
