Chuck and I are relentlessly dedicated Carleton alumns - especially when it comes to their sports teams. Apparently Jack has picked up on this. Anytime he hears the word "Carleton" he yells "Go Knights!" at the top of his lungs. He asks to go to "ball-ball games" all the time too. As if we needed more reasons to love him!
Anyway, we made a trip down to Iowa to see the Knights in the first round of the NCAA tournament. Jack couldn't have scripted the day any better. We started out Friday morning at home eating waffles, made a Go Knights sign, saw Grandma Bernice for a short visit, loaded into the car for a roadtrip (meaning he got to eat new, fun snacks in his carseat while singing and counting and dancing and measuring things with his "measuring fence"), arrived at the hotel, met up with Grandmommy, went to a ball-ball game in a ball-ball sweatshirt with a ball-ball sign, etc. He really had a blast. I was sad that they lost, but the trip was fun anyway.
Pictures:
Jack and the last Carleton Football sweatshirt they were selling at the Homecoming Football game. He LOVES it even though is head is too big for the opening and he ends up with scrapes all across his face when we take it off.
Jack and his Go Knights sign...
Carrying it everywhere...
Displaying it for Sydney.
And finally, dancing with Dada after the game. Dada, by the way, is wearing his "Bumble-Bee Man Shirt."
