judah went to his first mountaineer football game this weekend! he said it was the best day of his life! i especially loved just having him along, as its always special when i get to do something by myself with just one of the kids.
judah had all his clothes for the game laid out all week. he said he could hardly sleep for five nights just thinking about it. and even with all of his thoughts, i don't think he was prepared for the hugeness of it all! his eyes looked like they would pop out of his head when we entered the stadium. and thought just the drums were the band, so when the whole band came running out, he just said "wow". he loved that they made the shape of the state and must have asked me about 20 times "how did they do that?"
he says his favorite part was when "the west virginia put his arm out and ran away, and the connecticut tried to get him and couldn't catch him and he made a touchdown". he caught on quick to the rules and would inform me of when we were on offense or defense although he couldn't understand why connecticut would get a point for running to the end that says "mountaineers" (the endzone). his logical mind thought that one end should say west virginia and the other should say connecticut. that makes sense, i think!
as soon as we got in the car to go home, he was asleep. after nights of not sleeping from excitement, i think he was just totally worn out.
