Baylor is in the Texas Bowl!

So after 16 years Baylor made it to a bowl game!  And lucky for us, they were invited to the Texas Bowl that was played here at Reliant Stadium.  So we had to go! 

The kids were excited!  Dad surprised us all with new Baylor shirts for Christmas.  He got us seats up close so Matt could see the game easily and Marlie could see the cheerleaders.  It was super cool!
I know we should not have had high expectations but we always do and then get disappointed.  It's stressful being a Baylor fan.  Although the bears lost we had a blast.  The highlights of the game were 1) that Marlie danced, like no one was watching, the entire time the Baylor Band was on the field.  Everyone around us was watching and laughing.  Some of her moves were really good and others...well she must have learned them from Dad!  2) Dad got to see Kascie and Brandon, good friends from Baylor that he ran track with.  As Doug was trying to introduce Matt to them, Matt was bothered and just wanted to watch the game.  He has an unhealthy obsession with football right now and so he loved being at the game.  Thanks Dad for taking us!!
