Indianapolis and Band finals

Friday afternoon we headed down to Indy for Aunt Lynnette's state marching band finals. The kids did great in the car considering neither one of them felt the greatest. I think they were just excited with the idea of sleeping over in a hotel.
Once we got to the hotel they both headed straight towards the pool. It was quite chilly so we settled for a little time in the hot tub. Then it was off to bed. If only it was that easy. Not much sleep happened at all.
Saturday morning we up early and off to Lucas Oil Stadium. I think this was probably the highlight of the weekend for Ray and I. It was so huge and we had heard so many wonderful things about it. Ray's mom had warned us about parking and coming early. We lucked out and found this awesome spot just across the street and it was FREE!!


The view from the parking spot. (Not zoomed in at all.)



The kids and Ray all decked out in their Concord Marching Band shirts trying to find Aunt Lynnette. We found some seats at the end of the stadium which worked out well. There weren't many people around so the kids could talk and move around as they pleased.


This little monkey got very antsy near the end. He was also concerned about making it home in time for trick-or-treating. He asks nearly every day if we can go to another hotel to sleep over. I think there might be another short little get away in our future. Maybe Spring Break little man, maybe. :)
