Notre Dame VS BYU

The Saturday before we had a baby Eric and I went to South Bend, Indiana for the BYU Football game! The original plan was Eric would just go with a bunch of guys from work, since I would be at exactly 30 days from my due date and our insurance said if anything happened they wouldn't pay for it.  But then I found out that my dad was going to be in Chicago and he was thinking of going to the football game too! That pushed me over the edge, I LOVE going to football games and was already upset that I wasn't going to one so close, and then I found out my dad was going to be so close! So I asked my dad to buy an extra ticket to the game!

We left Friday afternoon, picked up my dad in Chicago and then drove to Michigan City, In. BYU does a fireside at every away game, so we went to that and the headed to MICHIGAN to our hotels.

When we checked in the front desk gal upgraded our room because our floor had a wedding party on it, and she was concerned that they would be too loud and drunk and would keep me from getting a goodnight sleep. SCORE!

So then Saturday we left Michigan and headed back to Indiana to go to the football game! We parked on the Golf course, which is super crazy to anyone that knows how golf courses take care of their grass. Eric was hoping to park on the green, but that was a no go. We then spent the afternoon walking around their campus and just enjoying time together.

Sadly the game didn't go our way, but it was SO much fun seeing people I haven't seen in a long time. One of which was my oldest friend Domineau. She came all the way from Washington DC to see the game. Also I ran into the old CEO of my company out there as well.  But mostly it was so fun seeing my dad!
