gopher football fan fest

We love Gopher football (well, really, anything Gophers) so we were excited to take the kids to the fan fest at the football stadium.  The kids loved it!  There were plenty of things to do and after the team finished their scrimmage, we got to go out on the field (which we were excited about too!).  It was a fun morning!

before every game last season, Sophie got her face painted...she ALWAYS chooses this "M"

Jackson's first "tattoo"...he wasn't sure what to think but now he shows it to everyone!

Sophie wouldn't go up to the "real" Goldy, but she wanted her picture taken with the big one!

there was a gopher fun run for the kids...as you can see our kids were really into it! Sophie was sad here because the other kids were going to beat her, but everything was fine again when she got her ribbon pin at the end

I think she was the most excited to be out on the field!

she really wanted to meet this player and he was so sweet to her...you can't tell form this picture but she was so excited about meeting him :)

Jackson was mesmerized by the white on the field...he kept stopping to feel it!
