Final Four Festivities

Last Friday, Don and I spent the day downtown getting Final Four fever. Indianapolis is hosting the Final Four this year, and our hometown team, the Butler Bulldogs made it to the Final Four (and now into the National Championship game tonight). Of course, the city is going particularly crazy since the Bulldogs are in it.

Anyways, they had all sorts of festivities going on at Lucas Oil Stadium (where the Indianapolis Colts play) and the Convention Center.




Ah, how I miss football season...


Unfortunately, we just missed Butler's open practice, but we did see West Virginia and Michigan State practice. Too bad Michigan State lost to Butler in the Final Four :)







Here's Don, wearing his Butler shirt, while standing in front of the Michigan State practice...


Butler already beat the Spartans...now they just need to kick some Blue Devil butt!


Go Dawgs!

Bulldogs and Easter

First off, I need to say congratulations to the Butler Bulldogs who are headed to the National Championship game right here in Indianapolis tomorrow. I spent my freshmen year at Butler, and even though I graduated a Hoosier, Butler holds a special place in my heart. Besides, let's be honest, IU hasn't stood a chance in the tournament in awhile so Butler's the next best thing...and a much better Cinderella story!

Hoosier and I got dressed up for the game...he did NOT like this one bit.

P.S. I'll be posting more Final Four pics soon. We spent Saturday in downtown where all the festivities are going on.
And, of course, a big Happy Easter to everyone! I truly hope everyone has a blessed, joyful day. We are headed up to South Bend in a couple of hours to spend some time with our families. I hope you all get to do the same.
