Last weekend we went to our first hokie game of the season. We got a late start after having a flat tire but the kids slept most of the way to the farm. (I did too)
It was a 4:00 game - usually we have gone to the 12:00/1:00 games with the kids so we had a lot of time tailgating. So after an afternoon of tailgating the kids were more than ready to get to the game.
And look what we saw when we walked into the stadium. There are no words to describe Colin's excitement. But when he got close he was a little nervous. He told me later he was a little scared to get his picture taken with the Hokie Storm-trooper but he was brave and the Storm-trooper patted his head afterwards. This picture is proudly printed out and hanging over his bed.
Joel fell asleep during the first quarter. I dont think we've ever gone to a game without one kid falling asleep. Joel got really antsy during the 3rd quarter so we all went out to walk off some energy. Our sections were crowded and all Joel wanted was to climb the steps over and over.
Someone was not as happy about that as the kids were :)
The last quarter of the game we went and sat behind the MVs. It was pretty empty and the kids had lots of room to move around. Colin loves to tell everyone about the hokie game he went to and apparently is doodling pictures of the farm in school. He likes to say the Hokies scored 26 points and the other team only 7. A fun weekend. And now we're looking forward to more games.
