This New Year's Eve marked the first IU Football bowl game in a VERY long time (last time was 1993). The Hoosiers jetted off to Tempe to play the Oklahoma State Cowboys in the Insight Bowl. Since we couldn't go, we did the next best thing and hosted a small IU bowl watch & New Year's Eve party! Nick & Sheena & Christan & Todd (and Tristan's parents since they were down here for New Year's) came over for food & football (chili & bbq chicken from Smokin Jacks Rib Shack, mexican layer dip, fruit tray, deer sausage, cheese cubes, cookies & rice krispy treats - needless to say we didn't starve...). Unfortunately, IU didn't play quite up to par and lost...but there were a few shining moments (our kicker, Austin Starr, ran for a first down on a fake field goal!). We rang in the new year with the ball drop in NYC on TV & toasted 2008 with champagne! Best wishes to everyone for a fantastic 2008!
