KSU Football is finally here....

Hopefully with the start of KSU football that means fall is around the corner. With the weather we had this weekend that just may be the case. We headed to Manhappiness (from the lake) Saturday morning in time to eat at Marty's fav place, Little Apple Brewery, for lunch then it was off for some Kstate Volleyball. It's been awhile since we've gone to a vball game and they have made so many changes to Ahern when it comes to the vball court, however installing A/C was not one of them. Needless to say it was a little warm in there but fun to watch none the less. However the Lady Cats were not able to pull a win over BYU Cougars. Better luck for the rest of the season to our Lady Cats.
After the vball game we decided to walk over to the Union and see what's changed there. The best change was they serve Call Hall ice cream at the coffee shop. Nothing better that a scoop of Call Hall ice cream....it was YUMMY!! Marty had to visit the store and found a couple purchases...apparently you can't have to many KSU footballs, purple shirts, or hats....we came home with one of each.
We then headed to tailgate and the football game. Needless to say the game wasn't as exciting as we all would have liked but it was a win none the less. We're hoping with a bye this weekend Coach Snyder can get the kinks worked out and we have a much better game on the 17th!!

The boys are ready for some football and yes they have purple and white hair, which they received tons of compliments on.

After the game we headed back to the lake as we were hosting an small family gathering the next day. My parents, brother, girlfriend, nephew, Marty's parents, his brother and wife and our two neices all came down for a little swimming, tubing, great food and some yummy homemade ice cream made by the grandparents. It was a great weekend even though the temps were a little cool but with the summer we've had it was kind of nice.

Since Brett and Steel are both playing tackle football for the first time this year my brother suggested getting some pics with them suited up. Brett will get his game jersey this week, so we used his practice jersey.This is their tough look....let's hope it works for them on the field.Down, set, hike!!Steel wearing his dad's number. Go #19!!Of course Scott couldn't resist running a few drills with the boys.All in all it was a great weekend. Hopefully the weather has turned for some cooler temps and a little rain wouldn't hurt either.
