Go Maroon and Yellow!

I figured if I put Maroon and Yellow instead of Garnet and Gold it won't seem like I'm cheering for FSU as much!! Yesterday our neighbor invited the boys and I to join her at an afternoon FSU game. It was a beautiful day, plus Andy was out of town, so I thought it would be a lot of fun. I let Drew skip his nap so that we could get there on time, and I put Knox down a little early. Other than some meltdowns (from Knox) as we were getting ready to leave, the boys did really well. Our neighbor's son plays on the team, so we wanted to go and show our support. Andy and Drew have gone to a few games and they really enjoy this "boy" time. It would probably be easier if I just had Drew, but I thought it was fun letting Knox experience the game.

When we first got there we were standing at the fence watching them warm up, when one of the pitchers came up to us and handed Knox a ball, then gave Drew a high five.Here is Knox showing off his treasure. He LOVES balls. At one point during the game he wanted to throw the ball back onto the field, because he saw that's where all of the other balls were.This is our neighbor coming over to say hi to the boys.There was a kid next to us getting autographs and he offered us his marker, so we asked Robbie to sign it for the boys. It was their first autograph!Knox did not like to sit down for long. I think the only time he sat was when I was feeding him a hot dog. It made for an interesting time. I wasn't sure what the "protocol" at a game is. I didn't know if he was a distraction, or if people are used to it, but there was no getting him to sit still. We stayed through the 7th inning.

Here is our neighbor Kathy. She and her husband are so good to the boys. They are always giving them a special treat and they always remember to give them a present on special occasions. We're very blessed to have such great neighbors!On our way home! Drew had a great time....and you can see Knox (below) did as well!
