In October we attended our annual Nebraska Huskers game. Unfortunately to find 6 tickets together, Bob & Donna placed us right smack in the middle of the "Red Raiders" section (see dude's hat) with their flying guns. I wish I could say that the awesome play by the home team made up for the close company, but the Huskers apparently didn't receive the memo regarding the game that day.... At least we got to hang out with Russ & Rachel!
We caught our first Blackhawks game of the year in October as well. The play was a bit more stellar then the Huskers and we dropped the Predators. Rob got a tad annoyed with me when I suddenly realized that I'd actually met one of the Predators! #20, Ryan Suter, is from Madison/Oregon. And before he was making millions we had a mutual "friend." I thought this was quite hysterical, but I don't think Rob was on the same page....
My newest niece, Kaylee Renee, was born on October 23rd! A big girl, she weighed in at 9 pounds, 9 ounces. I went up to Madison to see her in the hospital and came in handy as they were just about ready to be discharged. She's quite the cuttie pie and definitely wont be starved for attention from her two brothers.
After spending a couple of days with 1-week old Kaylee, Tony and I headed up North to the cabin with Wyatt. Dad had drove up a couple of days before with Derrick, cousin Dan, and his old pal Al Leonard. We took the kids trick-or-treating in Minocqua on Saturday and then the rest of them had to head back South. Tony & I stayed a couple more days with Wyatt and answered a lot of his questions and tried to keep him entertained with trips to the park, car rides, and my iPhone. I think he may have liked the phone the best.
An original motion picture by Wyatt, the audio is priceless!
On Wisconsin! Last weekend, Rob and I went back up to Madison to watch the Badgers take on the Wolverines. I'm not gonna lie, I was ready for a cold bitter day where once again the home team forgot to show up. BUT, I was pleasantly surprised! It was a beautiful day in November and we crushed them! The Badgers played extremely well and we had a blast, I think we'll have to include a Badger game every Fall too! Rob even suggested we stay for the Fifth Quarter, and I have caught him singing "Varsity, Varsity" a few times in the last week....! :)
