Cotton Bowl

This past Thursday, my dad, mom, sister Claire, 90,000 KSU & Arkansas fans, and I headed to Dallas, TX to watch the 2012 Cotton Bowl.

It was so fun driving Southbound and seeing the highways and every rest stop swarmed with PURPLE. 

5 episodes of Parenthood later, I headed out to catch up with girlfriends, while mom, dad & Claire went to dinner with a friend of my dad's.

Friday was game day!

We arrived at Cowboys Stadium at 1:00 to get our fair share of tailgating in before 7:30 kick-off.

Lot's of whiskey was pulled. Excuse me, Ancient Age bourbon.


I wish I could still spend every game day with these girls. I can't believe it has been 4 years since we graduated from KSU. We've obviously matured as nicely as the bourbon. 

Ready for kick-off! 



The Band Perry sang the national anthem ... goosebumps! 


K-State didn't come home with the trophy, but I still couldn't love my alma mater more. 


Spending time with family & friends in 73 degree Texas weather the first weekend of January & watching the Cats play in Cowboys Stadium, couldn't have capped off my Christmas vacation better.

  1. It's hard being classy Morgan! Looking at those pictures made me want to be back there NOW. However, my liver thinks otherwise. So fun, EMAW!
