Go Go Goooooo Rice!!


Trey enjoyed his first Rice football game today! Mommy, Daddy and Aunt Kacie took Trey to enjoy the Division 1 game happening just steps from our home. Of course, Rice games are nothing compared to the only other game Trey has attended (go Wahoos!), but it was fun nonetheless.

Never mind that when we arrived in the second quarter Rice was already down 21-0. Never mind that the final score was something like 63-14. Never mind that Trey spent more time climbing up and down the bleachers and running around the stadium than he did actually watching the game. We still had a fun time.

Trey loved watching Sammy the Owl dance, as well as opening and shutting the gate that leads from the bleachers to the field (yes, at any other school, this gate surely would have been locked). Trey also enjoyed making friends with some of the bigger kids at the game. And Trey most definitely burned up some energy running around everywhere. As one Rice fan commented, "we need to put him on the field!"

All in all, Trey's first Rice game was a fun experience. He did say the word "football" once or twice and was able to point it out on the field. I'd say that's pretty much all we can ask of a 20-month-old.
