Texas vs ND Weekend

A few weeks ago, we headed to Chicago to cheer on our Horns.  It was just the four of us that went and we had the best time.  It was an early 60th birthday present for Dad! 

Here we are about to hop on the plane that was full of many Longhorn fans! 
 Once we arrived to Chicago we checked into our hotel and ate deep dish pizza at Giordano's.  It was so good!!
 We then explored Chicago- I love this city! It's been about 10 years since Justin and I had been and I had forgotten why I have loved this city so much! It was even better this time because everyone was in burnt orange!!
 We then did an sunset architecture tour.  It was the perfect ending to our day!



 Afterwards, we went to my favorite cupcake spot- Magnolia Bakery!! It was yummy!!
 Saturday morning we went on a Big Bus Tour of Chicago- it was a great way to see the city.

 Next, we got ready to head to South Bend!!
 Singing the 'Eyes of Texas' in the lobby before heading to the train station.  Hook'em!
 On the train heading to South Bend!

 We then arrived to campus and it was amazing! So much tradition and everyone was so friendly and welcoming!
 Touchdown Jesus with the fam!
 Golden Dome
The Basilica on campus- it was beautiful!!!

 It was kickoff time! Go Horns!!!


 Even though we lost terribly, it was such a fun experience being at the game!!! We had the best weekend with just the 4 of us.  Happy 60th Dad!
