The night of Emory's birthday was the first SEMO home football game. We are working with the college students at church now, and it's been AWESOME! We were having a big tailgate/kick-off and so after naps we headed over to Houck Stadium to get ready for some FOOTBALL!
Grandpa stopped by our tailgate before heading in to the game to work the chains.
Redhawks Walk...the players walk through a couple of hours before the game...
Tailgate Time!
The alumni group has a big bounce house for the kids...woohoo!
We didn't all smash under the tent the whole time...but it drizzled for like ten minutes...
Emory favorite boy "Mister Ca-wub" (Caleb) brought stickers to her for her birthday...she was decorated up before game time. =)
Love sharing our love of football with our girls...so fun!
And then the moment Brynn had been waiting for...Grandpa had promised her that this season she could go with him on the field before the game. She was SO EXCITED!
I remember going on the field with my dad when I was in maybe sixth or seventh grade before the games...the players seemed HUGE and the cheerleaders seemed SO cool! I wonder what goes on in Brynn's little mind as she took it all in...
She got to listen in to the chain crew meeting...
and watch the players warming up.
During the first quarter my mom (who isn't really a big football fan) said she would pick Emory up so we could stay with the college kids and watch the game. Brynn stayed with us and did really good! But Emory got to have grandma time...she gets pretty antsy after a quarter...
HAPPY FOOTBALL SEASON!
