My hottie and I headed to Manhattan on November 1st. (First of all you should know that I heart my hottie with my whole heart and I always will, and second of all you should know there is a spot I love full well, Tis' not in forest nor yet in dell; Ever it holds me with magic spell, I think of thee, Alma Mater. I heart you K-S-U! Loyal to thee, thy children will swell the cry. Hail, hail, hail, Alma Mater.)
Anyway, our wedding anniversary was October the 4th, and on that day, and many days and months before that actually, I was VERY BUSY helping my BS Chick, pull off the biggest and best KANSAS BARN SALE ever.
So, here we are almost a month later having or 11th wedding anniversary date weekend!
We heart the Kansas State University Wildcats! We both attended and graduated from KSU and are what some might call crazy loyal KSU fans. That day they were playing the Oklahoma State University Cowboys. My hottie scored us some FREE tickets to the game and I had a motel reserved under the name "Hendrickson ~ NEWLYWEDS". (We also had a couple of the BEST people ever to watch our children ALL weekend while we were away.) We dressed in purple and headed straight to Aggieville, (Manhattan, KS) for lunch and some game day atmosphere!
After lunch in the Ville we made a quick stop at our hotel, then on to visit with some friends before the game, and then it was GAME TIME! It was a cold evening and kick off wasn't until 7:00 pm. We dressed in layers and carried in a blanket. Bill Snyder Family Stadium... and tailgating... the excitement and atmosphere just keeps getting better and better!
Our seats were pretty high up, which meant we had a really good view of the stadium and the game, but the cold wind was blowing right on us for the ENTIRE game.
Below is us at the beginning of the game....
The half-time KSU band performance was really good! Look below. That is the band playing patriotic music while lined up in the shape of the United States of America!
Below is us at half-time. I was freezing! My hottie let me use the entire blanket for the entire game. He wrapped me into it like I was a burrito wrapped in a KSU fleece outer shell.
It was a fun game to watch. KSU won, beating OSU by a LOT!
The next morning we slept in and then hit Varsity Donuts for half a dozen delicious donuts to bring home and share with our kids. We did try one out almost immediately though... the pumpkin spice donut. It was super YUMMY! I probably could have eaten at least four of them myself, but I did have the donut police with me, aka my "hottie", so splitting one with him had to be enough. Darn you, donut police, foiled again.
Happy 11 years of marriage to my HOTTIE! We ALWAYS have such good times together. It has always been that way. I love the man he is....true, honest, kind, giving, patient, loving, gentle, my protector, my hottie, MY MAN!
