George Mason

For the 4th year in a row we have gone to watch ODU and GMU play basketball.  We love this event and can't beat the half price tickets and free food that the GMU alumni get.  Plus the special suite/box seating.  Not sure what you call the seating we get but its great.  We almost didn't make this years game.  Brent waited until the last minute (he is a little big procrastinator sometimes) and the game was sold out.  But then the alumni director sent this mass email to other people who were also requesting tickets and we got in. I think there were double the GMU alumni this year. But all the extra fans couldn't get GMU to win this time.  They have never won for us but it was an exciting game - came down to the last few seconds.  My favorite part of the game was watching Colin stand up and imitating the cheerleaders. He started dancing along with them and shaking his pom-poms too.  Even did the cute little butt shake.  So cute. I wish I had brought the camera into the game.  Colin kept asking why he didn't own a George Mason shirt and Joel refused to wear a yellow shirt.  He wouldn't let me get him dressed unless he could wear his hokie shirt.  (It was a proud moment for me)

Ant Ant came down and we met Brian, Sarah, Mike and Ethan at the game. Thanks guys for coming! Joel did pretty good at the game.  He didn't sit still and liked to roam about and for the last few minutes kept telling me "i do bye bye"  over and over. He was done at that point.  

Then after the game the whole Stevenson family came over and we all hung out the rest of the night. Only one of the kids wanted in the group picture. The rest were too busy playing I think.  A really fun day for us.  And makes us excited for the Hokie game we'll be going to in a few weeks.  Colin is already excited for this one since he has a bunch of hokie shirts to choose from - he said it'll make them win.  haha maybe thats GMU's problem all these years.
