It has been a painfully busy time in our lives.  I literally have no idea how we manage to make it through each day getting the things done that we do.  Because of that we’ve really tried to make it a focus to do things with the family or as a family as much as we can in the down time.  It’s tough but we’ve been really trying to make that work.

Blue has been really getting into football these past few weeks.  Wanting the cards, studying the stats, tackling his brothers… all that.  On Sundays he’s reminding me to make sure my Fantasy Team is all set and asking me who I’m playing and if I’m winning.  Yep.  He’s a real live eight year old boy.  So a week or so ago, I thought it would be awesome to take him to a game so he could actually see how big something like that really is, but with only a couple games left and prices through the roof, I didn’t really see that happening.  Anyway, it’s funny how things happen because late Wednesday night I got a text from a friend of mine asking if I wanted two tickets to the game.  Me being the amazing sports person I am, had no idea what game he was talking about, but said sure.

So last night we bundled up and Blue was able to experience his first real live NFL game.  It was only my second so that was pretty cool too.  I think my feet are still frozen, but it was worth it for sure.  Blue kept saying that he felt like he was in a video game because he’s only ever seen those players on video games or TV.  Family memories are cool.  Thanks Scott.
