Spring Game

Landon absolutely LOVES football and the Huskers so we thought he was finally the perfect age that we would try a football game.  I wanted him to be able to experience it first hand and we figured the spring game would be the best time in case he couldn't last the entire game.  If we had to leave we were only out $10 a ticket rather than full price.  We told him the week before that it was getting closer and he talked about it every single day.  He was sooooo excited!  We decided to head up to Lincoln the night before and do some shopping so that we didn't wear the kids out on Saturday.  We typically stay with my Aunt and Uncle but they had a house full with their exchange student and her parents from Norway.  

We ended up taking Avery to my Aunt and Uncle's house before the game and my cousin Taylor babysat her.  

At the hotel and all dressed ready to go! 

When we left my Aunt and Uncle's house Landon of course fell asleep as that is his normal nap time.  We decided to park in our usual spot to make things easier; however, a kid without a nap walking an endless amount of blocks was not such a good idea.  Kurtis and I ended up having to carry him part of the way.  His little legs were so tired.

His eyes were HUGE the entire game.  What an awesome experience to share with him.

He cheered the entire time!  People around us were giggling as it was a constant, "go, go, go" and "Go Big Red!"  

We typically sit on the South side but decided to try the North side this time for a different view of scenery.  

Then of course I had to post the picture of the cat!  Definitely something to remember from the game that made everyone laugh.  Fun part of this picture though, is that the cat belongs to my friend Rachel's brother!  :)
