Football

On Saturday we took Emmie to watch Carolina play the Citadel. We went out early to tailgate and she had a great time watching her daddy cook and playing some football with her new friend Riley! At the end of tailgate she was running with the football, dropped it, and tripped over it and fell and skinned her cheek on the curb and cut her lip in a few places. She cried for quite awhile (can't say I blame her!) but then she dried up her tears as we headed into the game.

She had a great time at the game. She LOVED the fireworks they shot off after each touchdown and she enjoyed watching the band march and the team run out on the field. This week was military appreciation week and so they had the flyover. From our seats we could see the planes coming in which she loved (she's a little obsessed with planes right now) and she cringed a little at the noise when they flew over but overall it didn't seem to bother her too much. We stayed through halftime and even then she was still behaving well but you could tell she was exhausted...she was asleep about 2 minutes after we got in the car! I think she had a great time and she was so excited to get to see the Gamecocks play!
