Go Blue!

We flew from St. Louis to Detroit on Black Friday because we got tickets to the Michigan vs. Ohio State game that Saturday.  We were so excited to take K-Man to the Big House and get some pictures.

Michigan Alumnus, Michigan Wife, and future Wolverine?



He definitely looks like he could be happy here :)



Friday night we got to hang out with our friends, Jeff and Anne, at a UM hockey game.  We have missed them so much and were glad to be able to catch up with them.



Yost Arena



Yes, indeed, that is a wolverine right behind us



The Big House!!!  Which is even bigger than it was when we had our season tickets.  Pretty impressive.



UM's marching band.  I love watching them!



Here come our boys!!!  Fired up and ready to "Beat Ohio"



A cool pic of the winged helmets



That's right, we won!  It had been a 7-year drought so it was a sweet, sweet victory!  See the crowd rushing the field?  That's where we were headed next!



Like salmon swimming upstream, but we were determined to get down there.  Apparently, rushing the field is a pretty big no-no at Michigan, but they made an exception this time.



Hail to the Victors!

Amy also got to catch up with her old coworkers, which was really fun for her.  They hadn't met K-Man, but had been good friends while we were going through all of our fertility treatments, so they couldn't wait to meet him!

St. Louis Blues

We decided it would be fun to have a night out with no kids, so we got tickets to go see an NHL game.  The St. Louis Blues played, and unfortunately lost to, the LA Kings, but we had a blast.  They had someone playing a pipe-organ throughout the game, and there was this big guy with an even bigger voice who sang a bunch of songs that the crowd really got into.  It was a lot of fun!
