East Lansing, MI

October 2nd – 4th

Iowa vs Michigan State – ESPN2 12ET – CFB Week 6

Another weekend covering Michigan State!
I am soooo sick of creating graphics about Javon Ringer!!

Stayed at a Holiday Inn Express for the second weekend in a row. Trust me, it’s not at all like the commercials!

Totally uneventful weekend travel & work-wise.


What did I miss this weekend?

My cousin, Sean, got married this weekend in Big Rapids, MI. A lot of my family was there, including my mom and her 5 brothers. The six of them have not all been together in many, many years.

Was so disappointing because I was about 3 hours away – but I would of missed all the festivities if I had driven up on Saturday night after my game. Only to have to drive back to Lansing a few hours later to catch my flight. Plus, I wouldn’t have had time to see both sides of my family. So close, yet so far away.

Again, another time that my job sucks. I have missed endless weddings and family functions over the years. If only weddings were during the week!

Nic,
I stumbled on your blog a few weeks ago and have spent the last week catching up on it. I love your stories on China!

We were at Sean's wedding and thought you might be there...it was nice to see your parents. I haven't seen them on a few years.

I look forward to reading more!

Nic, Lana sent out an email with your blog site attached. Same here been catching up on my reading. China looked like fun and crazy at the same time.

Randy and I missed Sean's wedding too. We moved to Florida (officially) 2 weeks ago. We moved down in July with Eric, Missy and Morgan but got a house 2 weeks ago. We would have liked to been there.

Same here look forward to reading more. Laurie (Oakes) Brummel
