Football, Hot Dogs, Apple Dumplings, and Family

Whew! Busy but very fun weekend! We were lucky enough to enjoy a beautiful couple of hours on campus at Notre Dame before we headed into the stadium to watch a very exciting victory over Michigan State. It was hot and we were sun-baked but the excitement on the field kept us all engrossed.




We then had a quick visit with some Notre Dame friends before driving to Van Wert to stay with my parents for the night. This morning, we headed to Fort Wayne to enjoy some of the annual Johnny Appleseed Festival activities at the park before dropping the kids with Josh's mom and joining an old friend for lunch. We reconnected with this high school friend through Facebook and saw her for the first time in 20 years today. Great time! We then headed over to an open house 90th birthday party for Josh's grandma. Josh's whole family was in town for the event so a good time was certainly had.

It was then a 3 hour rainy drive home and some quick showers before tucking everyone into bed. Whew!
