A Rare Date Night

It's a rare Friday night that we get out for a date - hurrah!!!! Special thanks goes to our new babysitter, Kyrsten, a senior at IU who we know from the church nursery (and who Gemma adores). 

So where did we go? To an IU men's soccer game, of course! For starters, we love soccer and we enjoy the pep band that plays at the games, and we get in to the games for free with Jim's student card. The men's team is currently ranked #15 and won this game 2-0 on two nice goals, including a sweet one from Caleb K., senior captain & defender (whose parents, Paul & "Nonna Donna" (as Gemma says) we know from our church).

We even splurged on take-out falafel pita sandwiches to eat for dinner at the game. Somehow the foot-long hot dogs at the concession stands don't tempt us...  And we brought our own chocolate and thermos of tea for later; it was pretty chilly during the 2nd half. It was fun to spend an evening watching a soccer game together, after all the games we have attended together over the years.
