Great Weekend

This was a full weekend for our family. Savannah and I attended the Opera for the first time on Thursday with our friends Raina and Marilee for Rigoletto at the Long Center. It was a great experience and we enjoyed watching and reading the text.

Friday was the first pasta party of the season and it was great to have the team over. We also welcomed the new men's varsity lacrosse coach, Joe Ernst. All enjoyed the feast of pasta, cheesy bread, green beans and chocolate cake.

Saturday was beautiful and a great day for lacrosse. I was joined at the game by Andrew and Megan, the Tull girls and Megan's son Cameron. Raina and Carter Parsons also joined and while the kids did not watch the game as much, the adults enjoyed a fantastic and competitive game against Baylor. The 14-8 win was a great way to start the Buc's final season and it was wonderful to see the students so pleased with their effort.

Saturday night the Tull clan, Parson family and Bowmans all enjoyed fajitas for dinner at our house and the kids played everwhere--back 40, wii, upstairs, downstairs etc. Mom's talked in the kitchen while dads bounced back and forth to cook. We also watched the infamous Andy DVD and saw both Bill and Andy in short skirt action....

Sunday was the super bowl and while I spent most of the day preparing for my Higher Ed Law class, I did take time to enjoy some family time at the end of the evening. As always, the spring will be full and busy, but this was a great way for the kids to have some time with dad before LAX season kicks into high gear.
