MU vs Nevada

We headed to Columbia bright and early today...well not so much bright! It was raining when we left Macon and raining when we got home. We walked the long way to the tailgate and got there around 10 and got to visit with some friends before it started raining around 11:15. Finally it was raining hard enough that some of us got under the tent and tried to "wait it out" At 11:45 we were getting in the truck and headed to Buffalo Wild Wings to watch the game inside! We made Travis walk back to get the truck and then Andi, TJ and I crossed Stadium to meet him. Even though we weren't at the game we probably had more fun at BWW. The food was good, there were tv's everywhere, it was loud enough that no one noticed our kids, it really wasn't that crowded and best of all it was dry! We stayed there until almost half time when it was 38-17 and then started home. I think that they missed a lot of rain at the game but we were still glad that we left...maybe next week we will have nicer weather and actually stay inside the stadium for more than a quarter! We got home in time to see the end of the game and finally catch a glimpse of Truman..with a score of 69-17 we figured it was an okay game to not be in the stadium.

crazy MU fans! I took this picture while I was under the tent and the die-hards were out in the rain waiting to go into the stadium.

this is the picture I took as we were driving away...I couldn't believe that it was still so crowded!

Andi's being silly- can you tell we had been in the rain?

TJ actually watching the game!

thumbs up dad!


crashed...before we even got out of Columbia. Notice the Tiger tattoo..I was not planning on wearing them today but on her way down the steps she reminded me that she needed a "tiger on her face!" So we got her a tattoo and then started outside...until she asked me about mine...I told her that I didn't need one today and in her sad voice she said "you not say m-i-z?" needless to say we both had Tigers on our faces today!

It looks like you all had a great time. It was smart of you all to go watch the game in the dry from BWW's Grandma

Looks like a blast! It looks like the lake was a good time too, especially the park! I'm glad we got to see you all this weekend.
