My family (meaning my mom, sister, brother-in-law, brother, niece and nephew …) came to visit this weekend. The trip was initially planned because Cassie + Zac are moving to New Zealand, and I felt the need to get some time in with my sister! So we picked the weekend that Murray State (mine + Greg’s alma mater) played Austin Peay (Cassie + Zac’s alma mater, where she played soccer + he played basketball).
But first we gave Milla her birthday present. She turned 5 on Jan. 6.
In the middle of opening her present, Milla decided Cate needed a sticker. So from then on, Cate was much more interested in the Curious George sticker than Milla’s birthday present.
Then Saturday was game time …
See, it was a sea of gold with little bits of red, courtesy my Austin Peay-supporting sister + brother-in-law (and mother who joined their side!). My brother remained neutral. Here’s a close-up …
Milla enjoyed her first basketball. She was ready to go with about 2 minutes left in the game. But it was a back-and-forth ending, so there was no leaving early for us basketball fans! Austin Peay ended up winning by 1 point, if you’re interested.
Cate had fun too …
She sported Zac’s red hat and even sat with the opposing fans! (I think they were all interested in the guys walking in hamster-like balls through an obstacle course at half time!)
We also enjoyed just hanging out with each other this weekend …
Milla is getting so big!
When does Cassie leave? What part are they moving too? Will you get a chance to visit while they are there? That would be sooo cool!
I’m glad Cate got those pictures of you guys in the stands…that is too funny!! Thankfully your in-laws “own” that section so hopefully the red-wearing people were not in danger. 🙂
