Cousin Ian comes to town

My nephew, Ian, was able to come visit for a few days during his Spring Break. It was such a treat having him here. It amazes me that I was Ian's current age when he was born. In some ways, it seems like just yesterday.

We took Ian to the Math department's celebration of Pi Day. Yes, we are the nerdy Aunt and Uncle. No, Ian didn't eat all that pie!


Evie and Daddy enjoying Pi Day festivities. Since you're dying to know what one does at a Pi Day party, I'll go ahead and give you the rundown of events: Pi trivia contest, pie eating contest, and a contest to see who could remember the most digits of Pi. Ian recited 7 digits, classifying him as a 'Minor Nerd.' The winner rattled off 71. This was not Tim, although he did win the frisbee golf competition(not sure what that had to do with Pi). Morale of the story: Start memorizing Pi because you never know when you might find yourself at a Pi Day Party!

Following the party, we headed over to the arena where the Racers play to watch the CBS NCAA Tournament Selection Show. CBS did cut to the arena for about 3 seconds after Murray was selected, but we didn't make it onto TV. Below is a picture of the team celebrating after finding out who they would face in the first round. In case you missed it, we beat Vanderbilt! GO RACERS.
