We were up again this morning because KU's football game was at 11:00am! Andrew said that's because they save the good time slots for good teams...haha! We met him at his house and met the cute house dog, Finn. So sweet!
We walked across the street to join the tailgating and walk around the stadium. We met up with Heidi and her family at their normal tailgate spot but I forgot to get pictures. Her husband Dan was so nice and we met several of their friends as well.
KU only has 1 win leading up to this game, but they were feeling like they had a chance against Iowa State. It was actually a pretty good game, although KU couldn't pull out the victory.
I thought it was pretty unique that the stadium was all bleachers and we enjoyed being so close to the field!
Chris and his family only live about 3 hours from Lawrence, so I made sure to tell them we would be in town for the weekend. They drove up to spend some time with us which was great. They were waiting for us at Andrew's house following the game. Merritt was sure happy to see Taylor and quickly fell for Andrew too!
We walked around campus for a while and Merritt got a picture with the Jayhawk at the Student Union after we visited the bookstore.
Potter's Lake was the perfect backdrop for a few more photos.
After a quick Starbucks break, we toured Allen Fieldhouse. Chris hadn't seen the Rules of Basketball so we made sure to stop by.
Merritt loved playing "the bump game" overtime she had a chance to walk with Taylor and Andrew. We enjoyed a fun pizza dinner at Mintzy's before Taylor and Andrew went out with his friends and Chris and Aimee headed back to the hotel with Merritt.
