Pretty much the whole month of February got away from me. So I'm catching up on some other pictures I never posted.

We had a nice little 6 hour getaway to our college town.
Ahhhhh, the place Dave and I met.
It's always so fun to be there and think back on all the memories as we drive around.

We made it just in time to grab some dinner at our favorite place in the whole world - Coco Bolo's!
We filled our tummies and then headed to the game.

For part of the game, I was bummed  - "man, we sure didn't pick a good game to come to"
Nebraska was SO ON.  I think they hit 14 of 21 3-pointers.  But it seemed like they weren't missing ANY.
I think at one point K-State was 9 or 10 points behind. 

But it got better.
K-State made just enough good plays to pull it off in the end. 
It wasn't all that pretty.
But it sure would have STUNK to lose to NU who was 1 and 12 in the Big 12. 

Nebraska's coach slammed the ball down and got a 'T' called on him - that was fun!

It was such a fun atmosphere.

The student section NEVER looked like this when were attending K-State.

Dave even leaned over and said "these games are much more enjoyable than the football games"
Okay - seriously?
Have you BEEN to a K-State football game??
Oh yeah, he has.  But not in true purple pride.
And RARELY as a college student did he go - instead he sat at home watching his Sooners play.

But if he thinks these basketball games are more fun, I guess maybe we'll just have to go to MORE games next year!

Last week we had our Community Life group over to watch KState and KU - which didn't end like we would have liked.

But it was a fun night - and we even had a yummy KState ice cream cake!

I'm pumped for March Madness this year and can't wait to fill out my bracket - I think I'll take the Cats all the way to the Final 4!
