Last weekend was our first Texans home game of the season (preseason). Jeff and I took Connor and Kaitlynn and you have never seen 2 more excited kids! We thought Connor was a huge Texans fan...well, Kaitlynn may top him and then some. She had SO much fun at the game. She sat in awe watching all the football players and activities. She spotted the team mascot, Toro, right away and wouldn't take her eyes off of him the rest of the game. When the Texans made a great play, first down, or scored, Kaitlynn was right beside Jeff giving all the fans in our section high-fives. At one point, we were watching the game and suddenly realized Kaitlynn had walked all the way up our section giving everyone high-fives all by herself. She was cracking us all up! Ever since the game, everytime we get in the car Kaitlynn asks if we're going to see the Texans. And she's even started pointing out signs and billboards when she sees the Texans logo. Brainwashed much??
Here are some pictures from tailgating in the parking lot. Kaitlynn LOVED the horsies.
We didn't tailgate long because it was SO hot. Thank goodness for a retractable-roof stadium with air conditioning.
Here's a video showing Kaitlynn giving all the fans high-fives. Everyone just cracks up because she's just like her Daddy!
At the end of the evening, it was WAY past their bedtimes and they passed out in the car. Here's to another fun football season!!
Oh my....what can I say??? Looks like you've got another "fanatic" on your hands! Love, Mom (MeMe)
ReplyDeleteTwo things. First - I can't believe Jeff tailgated without his proper attire! I was so glad that you posted a photo of him in his jersey at the end because I was going to wonder what on earth had happened. And second - that video, a riot! You have one enthusiastic family, girl. I love it! If Texans could win on fan-power alone, your family would put them in the Superbowl. =)
ReplyDeleteOh goodness, I can't believe you now have two kiddos that share the same love and passion for the Texans. That is too cute. And what fun for your family to share something you all feel so strongly about. That video made me laugh. She was working that crowd, wasn't she? She doesn't know a stranger!
ReplyDeleteMy favorite picture is the one of Connor and Kaitlynn with Connor's arm around her. I mean really, could he be any sweeter to his sister. Love them!
Go Texans!
Looks like you guys are ready for some football for sure! I'm actually excited about the season too, hoping Jackson can go to some games with Laine this year. Haha! There really is something special about football season. The cooler weather and fun activities really does make it a fun time of year. It definitely looks like Kaitlynn is going to love the Texans as much as the rest of her family.
