When we got tickets for the K-State/KU football game a few weeks ago, we were really nervous about the weather. Little did we know it would be a beautiful, sunny, 70+ degree day! What a fun way to spend a Saturday afternoon! And this time we took a few first-timers along.
As we neared the stadium, I told Finn to watch for the "castle." When we rounded the corner his eyes got wide and he said, "You're right, it DOES look like a castle!" It was fun to share this experience with the California crew and our friends, Pat and Jake. The day was even better since K-State totally dominated from the get-go!

Did I also mention that we had to stand almost
the whole game? Luckily for the littlest fans, there
were some strong arms around! |

It was Senior Day - which meant it was Weston's last home football game. We'll always be cheering for K-State, but it's definitely not going to be the same next year. We've gotten accustomed to watching for #17 during the kickoffs and punts. Thank you, Weston, for being somewhat of a small-town ambassador during your years at K-State. You have represented your family and your community extremely well! And you have been an example for us to point Caiden to when it comes to hard work and persistence!

The families all lined up to greet the seniors - Weston's family is in the
middle. |

The whole team made a lap around the stadium after the game.
The kids got to high-five all of them! |
The highlight for the kids may have been playing on the field after the game. Weston's dad told us that in their experience, K-State has been the only Bix XII stadium to allow people onto the field after games. Caiden's dream is to play on there for real someday! :) For now, he'll settle for tackling his cousins!
