Daddy's Dawgs...





...have made it to the NCAA Final Four for the second year in a row!  Michael has been waiting for and looking for a "Back to Back" Final Four t-shirt since Saturday when Butler won their game.  Evan and I ran down to campus today (thank goodness for spring break) to pick up a shirt for him.  After several picture text messages and two (long) walks to the top of the arena and back down again, we left the Historic Hinkle Fieldhouse store with the perfect t-shirt for Daddy.  Here are a couple of pictures of Evan near the top of the arena.

The Armadillo from Amarillo

My dear cousin, Mindy, has two sweet little girls in Kindergarten.  One of their projects was to send an armadillo across the country to see the sites of a different part of the United States.  Madison sent her armadillo to me, so here's where we went:

*to Frosty Boy - one of the yummiest ice cream stands in Indiana


 *to The Sushi House - a new Japanese place we recently tried out
 *to the Peyton Manning Children's Hospital (just for a class - nothing serious)
 *The Indianapolis Motor Speedway - Home of the "Biggest Spectacle in Racing."


 *to the Indianapolis Museum of Art - their outdoor sculptures




 *to Historic Hinkle Fieldhouse - Home of the 2010 NCAA Men's Basketball Runners-up
 *to the 106th Street Cafe - we could've skipped this one - it was smoky inside.  Yuck!

Random March Pics

Here's Evan snuggled in between the arm chair and the end table watching TV.
We bought a new cake mold (a 3D train) last week, so Evan helped with "clean up."
Evan was "doing work" with me the other day.  He likes to keep me company while I grade.
We ran to the Indianapolis Art Museum on Saturday; I couldn't resist taking a picture with the sculpture with his age.
There's a "LOVE" sculpture in front of the IMA - not a bad pic. considering it was just the two of us.
