Finley's Trip to the Final Four

Well, technically, the NCAA Championship game since we didn't go to the games on Saturday.  We were lucky enough to get suite tickets to the big game and there was even a ticket for Finley.  Tipoff was 8:20 pm, way past Finley's bedtime, but it was such a big event, we figured we had to take her.  We took the light rail to Reliant Stadium and Finley was so excited to go to the basketball game, though this time there were no bears, just Bulldogs and Huskies.  Once we got to the suite, we saw the actual championship trophy inside!  One of Finley's most favorite things to do was to crack open peanut shells, she didn't like the peanuts, but was happy just cracking them open.  She had all sorts of snacks, but her most favorite was the ice cream cart that came with about 3 minutes left in the game.  The ice cream held her over until the end and we saw UConn defeat Butler in a pretty sad game.  Finley made it through the whole game, but was asleep before we got on the train to go home.  She told me today that she wants to go to the basketball game "gain!"
