the bald and the beautiful: Rock Chalk Jayhawk

So we went to the Big 12 semifinals yesterday. The first game was K-State vs. KU. It was a good game, and KU ended up winning. It was a lot of fun hearing and learning the KU chants. it made us really want to go to a game at Allen Fieldhouse. The second game was OSU vs. Texas. Being an OU fan generally makes you automatically against Texas, but we were sitting in the midst of some really obnoxious OSU fans. They were the fans that griped about every call whether is was wrong or right, for them or against them. So by the end of the game we were cheering for Texas. Durant was crazy--he scored the first 19 points for Texas.

This morning was dark and rainy and it was really hard to get up...plus the time change last night...but we made it to church. Andy was talking to some of the guys in our class about the games last night and one of them mentioned that he had some extra tickets for the championship game this afternoon. So we went straight from church to change into our KU gear then headed to the game. We parked at Bass Pro because we are cheap and didn't want to pay for parking, so we had to walk a little ways to get to the Ford center. By the time we got there we were pretty soaked from the rain. We met the guy with the tickets and then headed up to our nosebleed (but FREE!) seats. The game started out pretty ugly....KU was down by 20 at one point, but they came back and won the game in overtime!! Woohoo!

Right now Andy is bowling with his bible study "man group" and I am stuck here doing laundry so I will have something to wear to work tomorrow. We are excited about our trip to KC this weekend! Luke is going to come back with us and spend his spring break here. He will probably get bored hanging out with us old people, but we are excited to spend some more time with him. Hopefully we will be able to start tearing up carpet the week he is here too--while we have some free labor :) That is it for now!
