Family in South Bend

Uncle Frank, Zach, Matt, Lovella and Ron hit South Bend ready to enjoy every minute of the Notre Dame Football weekend and made it home exhausted, I'm sure, but with stories to tell.

It was a good game (Notre Dame beat BYU), pretty decent weather (some rain), lots of good food, and Zach was absolutely thrilled. He got his ticket signed by Chinadum Ndukwe (Defense, number 81) and Lovella bought him a football at the bookstore. On Sunday morning they all went to the pancake house, Bibler's, of course, for breakfast, and there was a table full of football players there. Thank goodness L. had bought the football for Zach. He got his ball autographed by Jeff Samardzija, (Wide Receiver, number 83) ) also known as "The Shark." It was fun seeing him so excited.
