Husker Gymnastics!

One of the many benefits of living
in a University town is fairly easy access
to college athletic events --
unless you're talking about Husker football.
That's a little different - as in - hard to get tickets to attend!

Husker Gymnastic - 2009 - Bandana Day! Maddy and our neighbor Sarah.

But, Husker Gymnastics events are great fun and one
of the more economical (cheap) events to attend!
We've been going for years!

Senior Tricia Woo in 2009
Mr. Tennis and Maddy went to this year's first Women's Gymnastics meet a couple weeks ago,
and we all went last week!
Wow -- the 17th ranked Huskers were up against
#3 ranked Michigan.
Guess who won??
Huskers!!
Cool red and white pendant lights!

After the awards, we were going to wait for autographs from the team,
but the line was longer than for a Disney princess,
so we opted out.

It was great fun and we loved seeing those fabulous
women athletes!
Gooooooo Huskers!

Flips and jumps and balancing!!


Living in a Midwestern University city has its benefits -- great museums, great arts and musical performances -- and what is most important to many in this state - great sports! Although we don't often get to see all of the University sports teams (many are sold out way ahead of time!), today we went to see the final Women's Gymnastics meet against Iowa State. Bonus -- we all received bandannas too!


Senior Tricia Woo -- she was AMAZING!!






Gotta have some snacks!!

I've never seen a gymnastics meet at this level . . . except for on tv! And bonus -- it was "Pepsi* Pack the House" so admission and all Pepsi* products were only $1!! I love me a bargain! Maddy and I had so much fun. We took our neighbor, Sarah, who is a 2nd grader, and those two girls were a riot. Afterwards, they were trying out some balance beam moves along the carpet lines -- I think they need a LOT more practice. And yay -- Nebraska won the meet! Go Huskers! The NCAA championships will be in our fair town in April, so hope we will be attend and cheer on the Big Red!
