Once a relocating client asked us what there was to do once the weather got cold in Indiana?  We both answered simultaneously with a grim - BASKETBALL - college basketball that is :)

Here is a pictorial recap of just the past few weeks FUN.

#1 Notre Dame Vs. Central Florida(ok, so we also wanted to see Marcus Jordan play and to witness 1st hand the shoe choice he made :) but, his famous fatherMJ sat incognito somewhere in the Joyce Center/Purcell pavillion, so we didn't get a glimpse of him :( 

Although the  game was tied 41-41 at half-time,The Local Favorite Notre Dame played a strong half to win 90-72!

   #2 Purdue University Boilermakersvs. Valparasio University Crusaders @ Mackey Arena!

 It is no secret we are a HOUSE Divided (Jeff went to IU and the girls Purdue)...so we took our youngest out to dinner in West Lafayette, IN(she's a senior:) and experienced Mackey Arena LOUDNESS for the 1st time as # 4 ranked Purdue coach Matt Painter was classy enough to pull out all the starters with over 5 minutes left to play in the game.

The Northwest Indiana Locals-> Robbie Hummel (Valparaiso, IN) and E'twaun Morre (East Chicago, IN) were something to watch and Jeff's prediction is that this team will play in the final 4 ( which is in Indy :)

Jeff, we need to talk ... what's the deal with that sweater!  :-) WOW, I have to have one of those, Davids Clothiers I presume.

 

Great idea on a post, it may be cold in Indiana, but we know our basketball.

Oh that makes me just a bit homesick for my Hoosiers this time of year! I am a graduate of Indiana University and know the importance of basketball in our state! Happy Holidays! We will enjoy the 70 degrees for you!

Jeff went to IU Jessica - her was there when Bobby Knight coached the Hoosiers to a national title :)

LOL yes we lack weather - perhaps thats why indoor basketball is so popular ?!

Happy Holidays

Sincerely,

Grace
