MCLA Championship - Dallas

We went out to dinner with Ferrin's at Pappadeaux's... even got Jill to try a bite of fried alligator (ok, just one bite) - I thought it was pretty good though. I had Blackened Shrimp & Crawfish Fondeaux - really enjoyed it as an appetizer. Actually was so full I could barely eat my shrimp and catfish... Jill had a fantastic (2nd best fish she has ever eaten) Texas Redfish on the Half Shell Lump crabmeat in brown butter with asparagus & creole roasted tomatoes...

We went at saw the new Narnia movie - Jill loved it... I thought it was a bit slow and I *really* didn't like the Prince Caspian character... was he Greek, Spanish, Mexican? His accent rotated between all of them and thought that looking with a blank stare into the camera was somehow his best trait...

Then on to Texas Stadium for the Semi-Final.
BYU .v Michigan. Though we didn't win... Michigan 11 - BYU 7. I'm proud of how far the BYU Players went this year in the tournament. Like Jim Ferrin said... the season ends this way for all but 'one' team...

That is quite the stadium! Were the boys a little in awe playing in such a big place? The dinner sounds so good. I would like to have tried the same thing Jill had. It sounded very good.
