This week's "Week in Photos" features kittens, concerts and kicking -- a ball, that is. Athens and University of Georgia community members joined for yoga with kittens, Houndmouth and others performed at the Georgia Theatre and both the Georgia Bulldogs soccer and football teams held games this week. Sigma Kappa also held their fall philanthropy event.
