Our second football game of the season was against Harding. I took both kids to the game by myself and was so thankful to have some help from the coaches wives! The game was away, at Harding, and we started off the evening at an awesome tailgate. There were at least 75 ECS fans there and we were able to keep cool in a nice RV. There were some amazing home cooked ribs that officially have Ryan and I saying that we are fans of the Memphis Dry Rub Ribs! After the tailgate we headed over to the game. It was a good game but man, it was H-O-T! It was so hot that sweat was just running down every part of me the entire game. HORRIBLE!
I took Madison Claire to the bathroom at halftime and before I went in, ECS had the football. When I came out, I heard the announcer say "on the stop for the Lions" and I thought to myself "how did we get back on defense so quickly". I then looked out on the field and saw that we were still on offense. Right. Because we aren't the Lions anymore.
At halftime, I took the buddy down to a grassy area by the bleachers and laid him down to change his diaper. I realized that it was a lot cooler down there and he was tired, so I let him lay down and play on the blanket for the rest of the game. It was so much better!! Pretty soon, we had a little party going on with Reese, one of the other coaches little one. How cute are they?!?
Madison Claire also found a fast friend in Gina Walters, the head coaches wife. She is so great with kids and by the end of the game, Madison Claire was crying because she didn't want to leave "my Gina, my Gina". Gina was also first on her prayer list the night of this game!
I was spoiled for the last quarter. The buddy was out on the blanket and Madison Claire was fascinated with Gina so I got to watch the game! Lucky me!
First co-ed sleepover...
After the game...big smiles for a big win!
