We took Jackson to his first sporting event on Saturday. It was a basketball game, BYU Cougars vs. New Mexico Lobos, and the biggest crowd of the season! It was a blowout, we won 83 to 66.
Brian was so excited to take Jackson to the game, all dressed up in his cougar gear. Brian had attended an evening BYU game the week before with some young men in our ward, and begged me to let him take Jackson, but since it conflicted with bedtime, I said no. He was so disappointed. When the opportunity came to go to an afternoon game, we couldn't pass it up! It was so cute! He walked with Jackson on his shoulders all the way to the ticket booth, proudest dad ever!
The first few minutes of the game, we didn't think Jackson would make it. We thought we might have to turn around and head back home. Jackson was NOT having fun. He was so scared~ he was shaking in my arms, clinging to me with all of his might, and not about to let go. Every time the crowd cheered, he'd cry. Pretty soon, he got used to the noise and was clapping along with the rest of the crowd. He even got his own seat for a little while in the game!
