A Dads and Kids Gameday

Today K-State was playing KU in football, which is a game I always want to watch. One, because I love K-State football, and two, because I despise KU (being that they are our bitter rivals and all, even if it's mostly a one-way street since Mizzou is the primary target of KU's rivalry rage). Also KU has been utterly and stupendously terrible at football for the past few years, meaning there's almost no chance they will beat us, so I know the game will be enjoyable. Anyway, this year Fox Sports 1 is a new network which hopes to rival ESPN, and some of K-State's games have been on that channel, which we don't have.  Fortunately, my friend Tony does have it, so today I took our three kids over to his house.  Christa was working, and Tony had Hunter there, so it was just the two of us with our four combined kids.

We watched a little of the game when we first got there, but it was then lunchtime, so we enjoyed some Hot-N-Ready pizza that Tony picked up from Little Caesar's supplemented by some delicious deer sausage.

They had some large plastic bugs as toys.  The kids thought it was hilarious to pretend to eat them while Tony and I feigned intense disgust, much to their amusement.  Tony, as usual, was loved by the kids, and they tended to flock to him.

Getting four kids to all look at the camera is nearly impossible, but we somehow achieved it in two different locations.

Later the kids migrated to the short hallway between the kitchen and the living room and played with construction equipment and tractors.

K-State won, of course, and it was great for Tony and I to get to hang out, and it was a really fun time for the kids as well.
