KSU Roadtrip

This past weekend we took Brayden to his first away K-State football game.  We flew to Dallas to watch the Wildcats play TCU and subsequently claim the #1 ranking in the BCS for the first time in school history.  Wow!

Despite the evening kickoff, Brayden made it the entire game from tailgating to warmups to watching the Cats thank the K-Staters in attendance following the Wildcat victory.  The weather was nice and the new TCU stadium even nicer.  There were several kids in our section to entertain Brayden, which he loved.  He smiled lots and we think he actually had fun at the game.  He still really enjoys going places.

Brayden did great on the flight and sleeping in the hotel.  We also visited the zoo and stock yards.  Brayden LOVES cows right now.  If you ask him what sound a cow makes, he responds with his own version of "moo" so you can imagine his delight at the stock yards.

Brayden was very happy the entire game.

The Fort Worth Zoo is ranked as one of the top five zoos in the country.  We were very impressed.
The exhibits are close to each other and they have several of each animal.
Brayden's favorite animal - DEER, just like the deer down the street from our house!
