Are you ready for some football!?!

Football season has officially started!  This past Saturday we went to our first Lions' game.  They played a preseason game against the Atlanta Falcons.  The kids were so excited about going!  They were all dressed in their Lions' attire and ready to cheer them on!  They were also excited to see their daddy at work.  We had a fun day full of football, popcorn, hot dogs, pizza, and chicken fingers.  After all, isn't food the reason that kids go to football games!?!  The best part was that the Lions won, 27-26 on a game-ending field goal.  Even though it's just preseason, we'll take all the wins we can get!  Hopefully we'll get a lot this year!

Notice I can never get all 3 kids to look AND smile at the same time!

This is on our front porch before the game.

Ally wanted an offensive lineman jersey, so her jersey is #77, Gosder Cherilus. Megan has on a Calvin Johnson, the only baby one available!

Drew of course wanted a quarterback jersey.  Do you think we're a little biased towards the offensive side of the ball for the Lions!?
We got to the game early enough to see Jeremiah on the field during warm-ups.  He sits in the coaching box during the games. 
Waiting for the game (and the eating) to start.  
Megan hung out (literally) in the Baby Bjorn for most of the game.  She had fun at her first football game, though!

The kids were excited about the win!  We'll be back with Nana for the Indy game in 2 weeks!  Go Lions!
