This past weekend, we had the great joy of viewing a Huskers game down here in TX! It was my first Big Red game since I left Lincoln in 2001. Of course, it's not the same as a REAL Husker HOME game, but there were more Husker fans than Baylor fans, so that was pretty cool. We were pretty much surrounded by fellow Huskers, even though we were on the Baylor side. We met my brother Justin and his wife, Katherine, at the game, and then met up with our old friend from high school, Catherine for dinner afterwards. It was fun to see Catherine again, we met up last year in Houston and haven't been able to get together since. She's an awesome gal and it is always fun to be around her bubbly spirit! She actually stayed in Austin after the game and was able to drop by today to see our house and meet our dogs--which was a lot of fun. Mozart "talked" to her almost the whole time...I think he had a crush =)--haha! Anyhow, fun times with the family and the Huskers! Wish they played in Texas more often (and at places where the tickets are CHEAP!!!).
Hopefully we'll be able to snag tickets to next year's NE vs CO game for the day after Thanksgiving--Justin has yet to experience a true Husker game--and it's about time!
Here are some pics from the game and from Cold Stone after dinner (Kat and I LOVE Cold Stone and there are none close to us, but we seem to make it to the one in Waco whenever we meet there...and it rocks!).
