Bracket Bribery

March Madness is here again, as well as the mad rush to fill out brackets for both girls, according to Dixon family tradition. We had their attention for the picks in the first couple of rounds, but I had to bribe Mika with some chocolate goldfish cookies to finish her bracket at the end.
 
 
 
 Ramona's champion: New Mexico State Aggies (the cowboy)
 Mika's championship teams: Michigan State Spartans vs. VCU Rams
 She showed little hesitation when selecting the goldfish on the Spartan card.

On Friday we put on our Illini apparel for the Illinois vs. Colorado game. Our team just barely pulled off the win to move on to the next round.
 
 
Thank goodness Ramona was there to add comic relief to the tense eleven minutes during which Illinois did not score.What would Forest do without her?
