For Grandpa: Oregon vs Auburn

As most of you might know, Wes and I aren't the biggest sports fans. We're all for supporting our respective universities, but it's quite the event if you actually catch us watching our schools play football. Let alone football at all.

So this one is for my Grandpa! When we were visiting over Christmas, my grandpa was super excited about the Ducks playing in the national championship game. He was so excited he told us all about coach Kelly and his very innovated offensive strategies. He made it sound like so much fun to watch and told us that this was a moment in history. After that pep talk, I was honestly somewhat excited to watch the game. Given that we don't have cable to even watch the game at home, we asked some of our good friends who are into football if we could mooch off their cable and have a little Ducks party at their place. Our friend Terah loves football and jumped at the chance to have an excuse to watch. Terah and Michelle also have a little one, Noah, about the same age as Emeline. So it was a date!

Here are some of the pics of our festivities.

Just a little friendly toy rivalry.

Go Ducks!

By the end of the night, Noah was in bed, Emeline was cranky and exhausted, and the Ducks had lost. We were bummed that the Ducks didn't win the big game, but it was an exciting game to watch in the end. And we had a fun evening with our friends!

Thanks to Terah and Michelle for having us, and thanks for the inspiration Grandpa!
