Colin and I spent most of Spring Break (last week) in Oklahoma City at the Men's and Women's Big XII Basketball Tournaments. Colin got to do his band director thing while I got to hang out and be the "band mom" for the kids on the trip. It was so much fun and the Baylor Bears and the Lady Bears both provided excitement for the trip. The men's team way over-performed by not only beating higher seeded Nebraska, but by upsetting both Kansas (the #1 seed team of the tournament) and Texas (who we haven't beat in the past 25 times we have played them) to make it to the championship game against Mizzou! Even though the men lost, that was the furthest they have gone in the tournament since I have been a Baylor fan, so that was really exciting. After the Texas game, we went and visited the Oklahoma City bombing memorial and museum--a sobering and thoughtful experience that everyone who visits Oklahoma City should have. Then, the Lady Bears won all of their games and became the Big XII Tournament Champions. SIC 'EM!!!
On another note, here is cute picture of us with Beauregard--Colin brought him on a walk by the library to visit me yesterday!
