Iowa Game... er... NorthWESTern Game

Tickets: 25 dollars

Hot dogs: 3 dollars

Popcorn: 3 dollars & change...

Enjoying a family outing to a Northwestern Wildcats football game during Bonnie's senior year of college: PRICELESS!

The Wildcats suffered another unfortunate loss to a team wearing black and yellow (Iowa this year... Purdue last year) as our family contingent looked on. We made it to our seats in time for kick-off, but we left before the final set of downs. By the end of the game, it felt as though IOWA had the home field advantage. Their fans were enthusiastic, to say the least...

Our group of Bonnie & Mark, Kathy, Yvonne & I + Courtney & Heather, Uncle Joe & Aunt Vern, Aunt Lee (aka my Mom) and Janet W + Abbey & Maddie would've loved to see more of you at the game; nonetheless, we had a great time! The weather was uncharacteristically warm for a November in Chicago, and a bad day of football with people you care about is better than a good day alone... ANY day!

Finally, let me take a brief moment to "bust bad" on the majority of the family for NOT participating in this family 'blog!!!

If anybody is reading this... hello?... anyone?... Bueller?... P-L-E-A-S-E spread the word that this DaFaFi site is up and running. Any of you can become an "Author" by opening a GMail account and sending your new GMail address to cousins Bill or Steven F. At the VERY least, send an email to let us know that you're CHECKING IN on the site from time to time.

Remember... If we're not using this site as a means of keeping our family connected, THE TERRORISTS HAVE WON!!!

Love to all,
-Steven F (the "Steven" who ain't "Weaver")

Hey Steven, sounds like you all had a great time at the game. I will be posting an update about Lynn & hopefully some pics of her with her new teeth! (It depends on how easy it is to post pics here. I've never done it before).

Love,
Shari

Hey Shari...it's a cinch. Worry not. Now that we know someone is actually reading this, I'll post more stuff. I'm nothing without an audience. If you have troubles, let me know if it would be OK to call you and I can walk you through it over the phone. First time is a little bit of a bend, but no problem after that.

BTW, Sun Bowl deal is off...The El Paso Filetti's are on there way up this year. 12/24 to 1/1. See you all soon.

Hi Bill (Commish) Yeah, you've had an audience. I've been visiting & reading the blog quite often. I finally got myself to jump in. Thanks to Steven, I got it figured out now, I think. :)
