Husker Heroes

This year, Zeke got invited to a local event at Memorial Stadium called Husker Heroes.  I'm not 100% sure who actually hosts it but the university hosts special needs kids and their families to an afternoon of games and fun featuring freshman athletes from the various teams.  All the kids got a bag of Husker goodies (pens, little balls, frisbee, etc.) and then got to go into the stadium via the Husker helmet that the Huskers always come in through.  The stadium was then full of all sorts of fun activities from temporary tattoos to face painting to hula hooping to musical instruments to tumbling mats and football toss games. The kids really had a good time.

This photo about sums up us...the other similar ones featured Kai picking his nose so this seemed to be the best one.

However, this guy was not having kids hurdle.
He was playing tennis.
