A Game Well Played!

Well unfortunately the Bulldogs lost a hard fought battle against the number one ranked Florida Gators. The team played great and even led by 9 points during the first half and was leading by one with 2 minutes left. We, as Bulldog fans, feel as though the officiating may have been a little one sided with the Gators shooting 28 free-throws to the Bulldogs 13. But...we are still SO proud of them!!!! Ella, "Team Baby" as she was called by the Cheerleaders in NY, of course was in attendance in St. Louis. She was again a great little traveler and even managed to catch a nap on Aunt Sally's lap while the Bulldogs were ahead!
We are sad to see the season end because it was such a fun thing for us, as a family, to do. Ella was born the day the Butler played Valparaiso and won, the day she can home from the hospital BU played and again won. When she was one week old she attended her first game at Hinkle Fieldhouse. From then on she attended every home game, two trips to Wright State in Dayton, OH, a long weekend in New York and a short trip to St. Louis!!! All for her beloved Bulldogs!!! So we will say farewell to this season and look forward to next year when she will be running up and down the halls of Hinkle Fieldhouse and Grandpa Jim's office!!

A Special THANK YOU to Grandpa and Grandma McGrath for helping us attend all of the great basketball games!! We have enjoyed every minute and could not have been able to enjoy ourselves without all of your help. Thanks to Grandpa Jim for all of the FABULOUS tickets to the games and Grandma Judy for all of her help with Ella and driving to NY!!!

THANK YOU GUYS SO MUCH FOR ALL YOU DO FOR US!!!!
