Fun even with a loss

When we moved out here I thought I would be giving up watching K-State football (this being ok since we aren’t doing so well)……but……we were fortunate to attend the K-State vs. UCLA game played at the Rose Bowl! Our weekend started off with dinner and festivities at Adam’s place in Huntington Beach. Mike and Emily, Mason and Katie, Bjorn, Jon, and Paul were all able to come in town for the game (the boys are Jared’s frat brothers)!

The party continued at our place Saturday before leaving for the stadium. It was hot, crowded, but Fun! We hosted the ol’ K-State crew, as well as, some of Jared’s optometry classmates. To save parking hassle and money we rented a conversion van to take ourselves to the game…I drove (little girl behind the wheel of a VERY large van… empowering).

Once at the tailgate we ate (thanks to Adam for the wonderful food), talked, and partied! It was amazing the number of K-Staters we saw from back in our days! To sum it up….we lost the game, but made some decent plays. It was a great weekend and wonderful to get together with old friends! (I missed my girls though!)
