Stratton's 1st Football Game!

IMG_3369

We took Stratton to the ASU Red Wolves game on Saturday. It was his first real football game and he did great! Jarrod was really excited about taking him. I guess its a guy thing. I know he is ready for him to be a little older where he can finally being able to do stuff with him, like taking him to football and baseball games, teaching him about hunting and fishing, playing sports, ect. . .I am sad that he is growing up so fast and Jarrod is excited about it!! On Thursday after work he went and bought Stratton (and me!) a new Red Wolves t-shirt. I should have had some one take our picture since we were all sporting our team colors, but it wasn't a good night for photos. It was really humid and once we walked the 10 miles (ok it wasn't quite that far) from our vehicle to the stadium we were sweating- especially Jarrod who had to carry Stratton! The rodeo was at the convo so the traffic and parking was horrible! Once we got inside and sat down Stratton of course wanted down, so that was a little bit of a battle. But we saw some friends from church and went and sat with them so he was better with a little entertainment, and once the game started he was pretty good. He fell asleep about 9:30, which was in the middle 3rd quarter so we took him home. I was afraid if we didn't go put him to bed he'd just get a good nap and then by the time we got home he'd be ready to play. He was in bed around 10pm and still got up at 6:30!! I wish he would learn to sleep in! I'm glad our first experience at a football game was a good one!
