Eric and I decided to take Madeline to a Clemson game this year. We chose Clemson's homecoming, and we convinced our good friends, Libby, Kyle, and their son, Jack, also 3 years old, to come with us. We had a blast! Madeline totally digs the tailgating, the game, and the entire football experience! Not to mention, we picked a great season to introduce our daughter to Clemson football. Go Tigers!
Libby's family has a beautiful home on Lake Keowee, a stone's throw from Clemson, so they so graciously allowed us to stay with them. We arrived on Friday night, and Jack could've spent the entire weekend on this boat. The kids played on the boat while the adults chatted before dinner.
We had a lovely spaghetti dinner on Friday evening. Libby's aunt so kindly let Madeline wear her apron to protect Madeline's white shirt. All that is missing is the candelight, don't you think?
On Saturday, we headed to the tailgate, and we had a blast! Both children were super stars making it through the entire day without much fuss. Eric and I were pleasantly surprised with Madeline's stamina.
She barged in on Jack's football time with his Daddy. Not sure she's an athlete, but she was super cute in her Tiger outfit!
Madeline worked awfully hard to catch the ball! :)
Our girl worked hard to be one of the fellas...she had a ball running around!
Madeline was completely mesmerized with the beginning of the game with all the music, balloons, cheering, and noise. She LOVED it.
Madeline took a little break from Daddy's lap to sit on Ms. Libby's lap. She managed to swindle Ms. Libby's bangle bracelet from her for the 2nd quarter!
Some halftime cooling off...it was very sunny in our seats.
A sign of a good weekend...sleepy girl on the way home Sunday afternoon.
