It's a pretty big game up here. Brad is an Iowa State alumni, so I've been "cheering" for Iowa State since we met in 2010. So, I've also been a fan of Iowa State for a while now. At some point, I'm planning on completing my second Master's through Iowa State, so our little family is pretty partial.
Some of our friends, Shawn and Amanda, decided to have a Football/30th birthday (for Amanda) shindig at their house. You see, Shawn and Amanda just recently painted their 3 stall garage. Then they installed a 130" projector on the ceiling as well as surround sound. Hello man cave. Guess what Brad (well, and I) want in our garage now..yep a big 'ole projector and surround sound. Seriously, it was awesome!
Amanda asked all us girls to bring a football appetizer with us. I brought baked corn dog minis, spicy chicken roll ups, buffalo chicken dip with chips, and s'mores bars. What...I have a problem...I over bake/cook...every time. Brad just shakes his head now and then asked me why we brought more than we could carry. Ok...he wins! Ha!
There was a pretty good mix of Iowa State fans and Iowa fans. We all set up our chairs in the garage, got our plate(s) of food, and watched the game. Iowa won. Boo. But we had a great time hanging out with everyone! We played bags, lit a bonfire, and ate and ate and ate. Even though ISU lost, it was a great night!
Happy 30th Birthday Amanda!! You make 30 look amazing. Love you lots!! (Amanda is from North Carolina, so we hit it off immediately! She's my people.)
Go Cyclones!
