The start of football season is always something to look forward to in this house, but this year it was extra exciting. Cory's friend offered us tickets to the season opener this year, and they were really great seats, so we knew it was about time to introduce Ethan to one of our favorite pastimes.
He was a little apprehensive at first. We had warned him it was going to be loud and that there would be a ton of people. Thankfully, the security guy let me sneak in some jelly beans, and we bought a few snacks from concessions, so that kept him happy.
A friend also lent us some noise cancelling head phones for him, so he wore those during exciting parts when the crowd would get loud, or when I knew they would shoot of the cannon. He really got comfortable after the stands cleared out a bit in the second half and we had a little more room. On the walk back to the car, a woman gifted him a balloon Longhorn hat, and he absolutely loved it.
I was so glad he made it through the whole game, and we had a lot of fun. We hadn't been to a game since I was pregnant with E, and after going to every game for four years, I was having withdrawals. Now only if the tickets weren't so darn expensive, we could go more often.
