Gonzaga Visit


When I first met Dave's little brother Jeff he was 8 years old.  I can clearly remember attending his elementary school band concerts.  So it is hard for me to believe that he is now a Freshman at Gonzaga University!  This weekend we got to visit him in Spokane for Gonzaga's Fall Family Weekend.  After surviving the road trip over there (see previous post), we met up with the family for dinner before retiring to our hotel for some much needed rest.  On Saturday, Jeff gave us the grand tour of the campus.  We got to see his dorm room, many of his classrooms, the "Cog" (Center of Gonzaga), the basketball arena and the baseball field.  Later that evening, the 3 brothers all went to a Spokane Chiefs hockey game together.  On Sunday we met up for a nice lunch before hitting the road once more.  I am extremely proud of Jeff.  He seems to be really embracing college life and is thriving at Gonzaga.  Here are some of the pictures from our visit:

  1. How fun! Looks like you guys had a nice visit with him. There is quite an age spread between the 3 brothers, huh? Is Dave the oldest?? I can't imagine...

    Beautiful fall colors on campus...what a wonderful time of year to go visit!
