Homecoming at IU

Last year Andy was so busy with school that we didn't have time to participate in many of the IU events. So, this weekend we had fun going to some of the IU Homecoming events. We enjoyed a parade on Friday night and the football game on Saturday afternoon. It was a great weekend.

The kids loved the parade "This is the best night ever" was heard coming out of their mouths. Perhaps it was all the candy thrown to them which led to pockets full of candy that made it the best night ever. It really doesn't take much to make them happy!Makenna was darling staring at the parade while covering her ears

While we were waiting for the parade to start we had fun eating pizza (thank goodness for Little Caesars $5 pizzas) and the kids found themselves enjoying the fall leaves.And if you were lucky enough to look at the right time you may have found John IN the parade. That is some pretty fancy footwork for an MBA student!!
At 7:00 am Saturday morning Sara, Jen, and I left for the farmers market and to enjoy a quiet breakfast at the bagel shop. We had a good time and found some of the biggest pumpkins ever at the farmers market. Jens feet may have been frozen by the time we got back in the car. And we might have been the cause for her getting a parking ticket!
We had fun at the game with the Powells, Bunkers, Soelbergs, and Pawlowskis. The little kids loved playing in the bleachers, the girls loved cheering and watching the cheerleaders, Ben enjoyed a tumble down about 3 bleachers, and I loved eating out of Sara's bag of snacks.
