Maroon and White Game

On many levels we didn't know what we were getting ourselves into today - we'd never been to the Maroon and White game and we had no idea what the girls would be like in Kyle Field at a football game.  The Maroon and White game is a scrimmage between the offense and defense at the close of spring practice.  Pretty sure they'd been doing it for years, but we'd never been.  After a little research we figured out that tickets would be $12 for the 4 of us to go, which is WAY cheaper than what it would cost for the 4 of us to go to a real game in the fall.  So off we went! Had a tasty lunch at Wings and More then headed to the stadium.  Girls got to experience the amount of walking required when going to an Aggie football game, and there were certainly comments about it although Ella got lucky and got carried some.  Got to the stadium, it was general admission so we finally found some seats and we were set. 

I feel like I maybe watched 2 minutes of the game.  I made 4 trips to the bathroom for potty breaks (thank goodness we had zero accidents, so it was worth it), we did the best we could to keep Ella from bumping or kicking the people in front of us (I'm not sure about bumps, but I did have to brush popcorn crumbs off the back of the guy in front of us only once), Ella and the stadium steps are a recipe for disaster (on at least 2 of the potty breaks she tripped in the same place on the way up the steps).  So moral of this paragraph is that Ella is not ready for a real Aggie game day.  Addison was good to go though!

 Addy was decked out in her Aggie dress and pink Aggie hat.  

 Ella got a little restless and we had to break out the iPad for a short while.  

 Ella was very anti-photography today.

 Biggest bucket of popcorn in history!  The girls LOVED it.
