Snyder Survivors: Indy getaway weekend

This past weekend, Brian and I went to Indy for a weekend getaway. My mom and dad sent us to Indy for my graduation present. Hayden and Ava stayed with my mom and dad. They had a great time. Brian and I had a great time, too. We left at 9am and took our time. We first drove by our first home that we built when we got married. It looked exactly the same. The only difference was is that our trees our bigger. They even had the same landscape. Then we went to a new outdoor mall not too far from our first house. We ate at Red Robbin's. It was so yummy. The best part is their fries and they are bottomless. Then we walked around a little bit and went into a few stores. We had time after that to drive to Adrian and Michelle's house to see their new pupper, Livy. She was so cute. I thought it was fitting to see thier new puppy on the first day they got it because their last dog, Abby, we saw the first day they got her too. We stayed a short time because we had to get to our hotel downtown to check in and then get ready to go to the Pacers game. The Pacers game was great! We had awesome seats. We were sitting on the 12 row right by the tunnel where the players come out. I could have high 5ed them all. You could see everything great! Then I had noticed there were a lot of security by us. Then I looked around and saw that Larry Bird was sitting across from us, 20 ft. That was crazy. At every time out people were coming over to get his autograph. Brian did get his autograph. That was pretty neat. Then we were sitting, watching the game when a guy walked up behind us and asked if Brian was Brian Snyder. I could tell that Brian didn't recognize him. It turned out to be one of his elementary school friends that he hasn't seen since elementary school. CRAZY!!!!! They were sitting behind us about 5 rows. Small world! The Pacers ending up winning 122-117. It was a good game. I should also mention that one of the players, Jeff Foster, I think, looks like Brian a little. After the game we went to dinner. We ate at the Ram restaurant. It was crowded because the Colts were playing their play off game. We took our time eating and watched some of the game. Then we went on a carriage ride. It was very romantic and very cold. We got back to the hotel about 11pm. That is super late for us. Anyway, it was a great day! We woke up on Sunday and took our time driving back.
