Crazy Weekend Part C

These photos are from the Topeka Jayhawk Club's Annual football pep rally. It was the right end parenthesis to the crazy weekend of July 30/31st. And now I think I've finally recovered. Poor Lydia. She was wiped from the constant going, so she wasn't as excited to pose with the cheerleaders and dancers when we got there. She was happy to stand back and watch the show snuggled up with daddy.

NOW she's definitely in her element.
I wish I would have taken a photo of all the little girlies together in their cheer outfits.
They were adorable!


Lydia surprised everyone (no one more than herself) by going right
up to Baby Jay for a high five.

Then our eyes nearly fell out of our sockets when she
gave him (or is it a her?) a big hug.

Cade's turn.

She was happy sitting behind the squads cheering with Baby Jay.

Cade with Big Jay.
This year's Big Jay is. HUGE.
And of course Lydia wouldn't go anywhere NEAR him.
Self needs to take a look at this guy, fo sho!

I thought Lydia was going to lose it when Big Jay came and sat next to us.
He handed her an autographed program and she was in heaven.
She said, "Mommy! HE SIGNED IT!!!!"

All in all it was a good time. This was the first time they've had it indoors. It was about 110 degrees outside and about 85 inside, which is better than 110, but it was still pretty stifling. I think I like the ones that have been outside better, though. Spread us out a little bit.
Anyway, ROCK CHALK!!
