Husker Nation

 
Now that Elias is on meds and sleeping a *little* better, we had some energy to get out of the house. A Varsity Catholic missionary and two of her (volleyball) students gave us an awesome tour of Devaney and Memorial Stadium last weekend! 
Elias really really liked the basketball fountain.  
The boys ran the track, and realized just how giant it is. Poor Lewis had to walk at the halfway point.  
I haven't been in the gym for years, so it was fun to see all the changes.  
We got to see the volleyball locker room, and when we went in I didn't even realize that's what it was because it looks nothing like a traditional lockeroom, of course.  The photo above is the room they use for film and studying and napping. 
Then we went to the Stadium and saw the weight room on our way to the field.   
The boys love any chance to go on the field, so they were having a blast! 
Lewis found his number.  
Augustine found his letter.  
The Burda Brothers on the "B".  
It was Elias' first time on the field. He's a true Husker now. 
And of course they had to tackle each other.  
Then we popped up to the top of the sky boxes. I'd never been up there. See the Newman Center bell tower in the distance?!    
They can't wait for the Spring Game. Augustine went two years ago, and we had tickets for last year but the day of the spring game last year ended up being Elias' birthday.
