BU/TCU Rivalry Weekend

This year's BU/TCU game fell on the weekend of Thanksgiving, so we left Round Rock Friday morning to head to Ft. Worth.  We made a stop to Rick's alma mater, UMHB, since we are hardly ever that way.  It was so nice to walk around and see everything!  Colby was pretty tired and crabby but we enjoyed it anyway.



 This documents this sweet boy's only nap in three days.  He was on the go :)
Got checked into our hotel and made some important phone calls.  The best part of this weekend is obviously time with family.  My cousin Mark lives in Ft. Worth and is a doctor for the TCU football team.  So we enjoy being in their home and visiting with them.  And Caroline is so good with Colby.  She taught him to play ring around the rosie and took him to see her fish and hamster a billion times.

We had a great time at the game!  You know my family were all wearing purple and talking trash... which I let them do because honestly... we all knew what was about to go down.  It wasn't as pretty as I would have liked, but a little adversity made the victory even sweeter.

Love how my dad tries to play both sides with his attire :)


 It got pretty chilly so Colby and I took a break.  Not so much green and gold in the club, but we did ok.  This kid loves some nachos :)  After the game Mark was able to get us on the field.  So very cool for Colby to get to run on the field.  One of the members of the TCU band even let him play the huge drum she was carrying.  So so fun!
 And finally some post-game family pics (Rick and Colby had already gone back to the hotel).
 Love that this is an annual game now that TCU is in the Big 12.  Nothing like family no matter where you went to school :)
