Elite Eight

To say that my husband is a basketball enthusiast would be a huge understatement. When Marquette made it to the Sweet 16 in Washington, DC, and neither of us could make it out of work to drive up was a huge disappointment, so when they made it to the Elite 8 in DC the day before Easter... there was no way he was going to miss it. He even made it into a huge family trip. Thankfully, the weather was beautiful and we got to spend most of the day sightseeing around DC before the game. The kids were really interested in the White House and the Lincoln Monument... the Washington Monument was just ok to them, but it was also fenced off for repairs, so you couldn't get very close to it. Unfortunately, we're having camera issues, so what you see is what you get. As for the game, well, I did learn that I really despise Syracuse fans... welcome to the ACC Syracuse! The Heels will be happy to give you a good butt-whooping next year :)

If you don't know what this is, well, then shame on you!

This guy dances to "Jump Around" at every single MU home game - they always show him on TV and on the Jumbotron.  He was at the game and socializing with all of the fans.
