wildcat weekend

for years we have talked about taking the kids to tucson and to a u of a game.
we finally made it happen this year thanks to chris-he planned it all, & we had a great time.
we went to the homecoming game on saturday and had a full day on campus.
it was fun showing the kids around- the library, student union, bookstore, game center.

we had a so much fun at the game, it was perfectly chilly - just right for a football game.
tio tim and santa went with us - wish i would've gotten a picture at the game.
they hung out with us most the weekend, it was great to spend some extra time with them.
and on sunday we took out cousin katie, who is a freshman...

we all went to brunch and then she showed us around her dorm.
it was so fun to have the kids see first hand a bit of college life - they loved it!
we also drove by our first apartment, went to mass at the school where chris was the p.e.
teacher and coach, and showed them the building i worked at (college of pharmacy).

the kids are still thanking us for taking them, it was sure a nice little getaway.
we are so glad we finally took them and we hope to make it an annual trip now-
i think we may have some future wildcats on our hands!
