A very Rock Chalk day


Grammee Linda scored tickets for us to enjoy the KU women's basketball match-up against Missouri. The game got started with a personal visit from Jay.  He walked right up the stairs, gave all the kids a high-five then sat right down in our row and let me, my sister and my cousins gather around for a picture opportunity.  Then after taking a picture with all of us he left the stands and went to sit on the basketball court.  It was like a personal visit from Jay. 

Great pic, but we're missing someone...

There he is.  Calvin joined in on the fun.



Reesing and Annabell were very excited about the big bag of popcorn. They even turned their backs on the game to completely focus on consuming the entire giant bag of popcorn. 

Then we were treated to a special gymnastics performance at halftime, which was a special treat for my cousins Reyna and Tyller, as they LOVE gymnastics.   How do those girls stand on their hands for so long???


Then the girls went flying through the air.  It was amazing and even the two fanatic popcorn chompers stopped to watch the performance.

Unfortunately, as you can see on the scoreboard, it was not the outcome that us Jayhawk fans were hoping for.   This is also a crucial time in the game when.....

This lil' Jayhawk crashed out. Yes, she falls asleep with 37 seconds on the clock.


My cousin, Calvin, enjoying the Jayhawk game, even though he does live in Wildcat country.


A good time was had by all, even the sleep one.    Now this evening we're watching our men's Jayhawk basketball team whoop up on Texas Tech. Rock Chalk Jayhawk!  Thanks Grammee Linda for the special day!
