The Weekend Recap*Shocking Story!

This past Saturday was my dad's 52nd birthday! We all had tickets to the UK vs. South Carolina basketball game which was a blowout! YAY! So, after working Friday night and only getting 4 hours of sleep, I managed to get ready for the family outing to the game! How? I do not know!

The tickets were in pairs, so I sat with my sis. ***Brace yourselves for this story I'm about to share!*** I've never been more shocked, amazed, disgusted, {insert any synonym of the like!} 

So, Emily {sis} and I got to our seats about 20 minutes early and this couple sat down in front of us about game time. After the National Anthem and starting line up the woman sat down and rummaged through her purse {a purple crocodile printed bag} and pulled out nail clippers, nail file, and purple glittery polish. Oh, let me back-up for one sec...she had already taken off her calf-high boots! So, she proceeds to file her nails, and touch-up her polish.

 Exhibit A:

Then she proceeds to take off her socks and rub/lotion up her feet. 

Exhibit B:

Then there was an awesome play in the game! And everyone in Rupp stands up, and so does she...BAREFOOT!!! At this point Emily and I didn't even pay attention to the game! We were in shock that anyone could stand barefoot on dirty public floors!

CAN YOU BELIEVE THAT?!

OK...Moving on...at the commercial time-outs a few old, but never forgotten players, who are now playing in the NBA were introduced! 

First was Jodie Meeks:

Then Patrick Patterson:

At half time, it's always fun to watch the dance team dance to a re-mix of the hottest songs {you know how they do!}

In the 2nd half, the cheerleaders spell out "KENTUCKY" with their bodies, taking away a cheerleader with each letter. With "K" there are 8 cheerleaders, then 7 for the "E", 6 for the "N", you get the idea. For the "Y" there is usually a celebrity or predominant Kentucky figure. For this game Tim Masthay walked out as the "Y!" He was a kicker for the UK football team before being a Superbowl winner this year for the Green Bay Packers! 

Emily said,"I guess a Superbowl win trumps old basketball players any day!"

What's your favorite color baby?

This song is played sometime during a commercial time-out also, and the whole arena yells "BLUE AND WHITE" This weekend was Dance Blue. Dance Blue is a fundraiser to raise money for children's cancer research. At Memorial Coliseum {the old basketball arena}, all the college students participating, dance for 24 hours non-stop! They showed MC on the jumbo screens during the game and all the kids dancing for a great cause! 

This year $673,976.60 was donated! 

After the UK game the fam went to an Italian restaurant, dad's choice, for dinner, then back to my parents house for cake. Here's mom cutting his ice cream cake and some pics of a couple funny B-day cards!

{He wanted a cooking apron because he "likes" cook! {By "like" I mean scramble eggs and grill! Aw dad! So, that was one gift from Em and me! Annnnd he's still wearing it!! It's from Williams-Sonoma, if any of your dad's or hub's or you want one!}

This was my card to him:

 This is from my a couple my parent's are friends with. For you fellow Republicans!

Afterwards, I went out for a couple drinks with a few friends!

Sunday, I met Katherine and Mrs. D for brunch. Then I came home and did 6 loads of laundry! And squeezed in a nap! Of course, my day isn't complete without a nap! Oh, and Stella-baby found the cake my grandmother made for my dad. She's sneaky and had a few bites! {But she hasn't learned how to hide it!}

How was your all's weekend?! Hope it was grand!
