Boise State vs. University of Toledo with Isaac Nation

 On Friday Sept. 16, 2011 the five of us headed up to Toledo for the Boise State vs. University of Toledo football game.  We were meeting our good friends The Steiners and the rest of Isaac Nation to take in the game.  The Steiners love Boise State football.  Sarah grew up in Boise and she has family members that currently live there.  Rob had purchased tickets for his family before Isaac was diagnosed with brain cancer last spring.  They invited family and friends to join them at UT to cheer on the Broncos.  What a fun time we had!

As always I look back at the pictures I have and wish I had captured more pictures!  We started out the night by tailgating with Isaac Nation.  We rode over from our hotel to the campus in Rob’s Dad’s 1977 blue motor home.  This thing was sweet!  Really!  It was in great condition and the boys loved riding in it.  Carson still talks about how fun it would be to have a refrigerator and a bathroom in our van.  We enjoyed some food and the kids were able to run around a bit and throw football.  

Here we are with Isaac Nation ahead of us walking over to the football stadium.

Andrew loved the atmosphere!  He loved cheering on the Broncos, watching the band, eating the snacks, just completely taking it all in.

 Below are The Steiners in their Boise State garb waiting for the football players to run out.

This was a 7:00 night game.  I nursed Alex (he was only 4 1/2 months at the time) in the motor home before heading over to the stadium and he took a little nap while we finished tailgating.  Then we walked over to the game and Alex just hung out in the Moby wrap, the entire time!  I think it was close to midnight before we headed back to the RV and I didn't feed him again until we got in the RV.  Such a little trooper!  He did take a short nap at the game as did Carson.  

Fun times!  Thank you Steiners for letting us join you!
