Go K-State

Our fingernails are painted PURPLE, we have PLAYAWAYS checked out from the library and we are ready to go!

We went to our first K-State game this weekend, and guess what?

WE STAYED IN A HOTEL!!

 

It was HOT, I mean H. O. T. HOT!!  102 degrees to be exact.  We kept the concession stand in business the 1st half, and that is NOT like us, but I think Jed decided maybe we could buy coolness.
It didn't work. :)  We didn't actually make it the entire 1st half, and as we watched people leaving on stretchers from heat exhaustion, I had to ask myself what is wrong with our society that we would subject ourselves to this to watch some college boys play a game.  Don't hate me, but it did cross my mind.

But look a cute family pic and everyone is alive.


It was soon after that thought that we decided to go check out Levi's new Cat Bus and of course sign our names.  Claire puts the letters in the order of her choosing :)

 

It is pretty AWESOME... funny story, Levi was Jed and I's ring bearer at our wedding, and he was just as cute then as he is now.
 

During this, our girls literally ran around like wild animals... I guess it was something about being squished in between people and not being able to move much, but I'm seriously not kidding WILD ANIMALS.  I was just entirely too hot to care and kind of thought it might be saving their sanity. 
It didn't hurt that they were wearing their adorable K-State t-shirt dresses my mom made for them.  We had lots of comments...
So many Livie said, "Wow, Gram should sell these!  Everyone wants them!"

Luckily we knew the neighbor tailgaters as well!

Here is Claire spraying them.  This bottle saved our lives.  We went through four bottles before coming to tailgate and visit!
 

2nd half was much better.  We were now in the shade, a
few people had cleared out and the girls were into it!! 

 

There was LOTS of cheering!
 

The spray bottle still made appearances...
 

:)
 

Claire really never stopped cheering...
Go K-State U
She even created a song
K-State U
K-State U
I want you to be a Wildcat!
 

She was so wired as we were walking to the car a tailgating bus was playing loud country music, she stopped holding my hand and immediately started dancing... Followed by looking at me stating,
"I'm 'bout to stay here!"
very happy and still dancing


Yes, after this we went to the HOTEL, and swam.
Yes, it was 10 o'clock at night, but it felt great!!
Did I mention we stayed in a hotel?
