Go Cowboys! -- September 7


We attended the home opener for the football team, and had a pretty good time.  



Hazel was a little overwhelmed at first, but she got used to the noise and even started cheering eventually.  She likes clapping, and a football game is a good event for producing a lot of claps.  Especially when the home team is doing well!



It was Vivian's first major sporting event (notice that even Vivian is wearing her brown and gold!). She was six weeks old for this, almost exactly the same age to the day that Hazel was when she went to her first Minnesota Twins game.  


There was a weather delay because lightning was spotted in the area, and we had to wait almost 40 minutes in the rain for play to resume.   We were grateful to be under an overhang so that we could stay dry.  If not for for the delay, we would have made it through the whole game, but we left towards the end of the 4th quarter.


The Cowboys beat the Idaho Vandals 42-10 in the end.


It was the first annual "Celebrate Energy Day."  We celebrated the fact that we in the state of Wyoming power America by handing out free t-shirts and honoring the energy companies who sponsored the day with footballs at halftime.
