Steelers vs. Browns

Hey There!
We got an unexpected delay this morning, so I thought I would hop on the blog and share one of our trips from October!
It was a busy month, and I'm still catching up!

Last Christmas I was so pumped to gift my dad a Deebo (James Harrison) hoodie that had a ticket to the December 30 Steelers' game. 
Christmas Eve my dad texted me telling me that Harrison had been traded. 
The air went right out of my sails!
I can remember exactly where I was standing and how defeated I felt. 
I had his gift planned and bought for months. 
It was wrapped beneath the Christmas tree, and I was literally just waiting to give it to him. 
I couldn't let on about how upset I was because my dad had no idea about the gift!!!
Christmas morning came and went and everyone laughed at my almost magical gift. 
At the time my dad had a cold and unfortunately it didn't get any better. 
The projection for the game was to be in the negative digits. 
I was soooo excited to go, but we stayed home instead. 
Luckily I bought ticket insurance, so we got all of our money back. 

Fast forward to this fall, and I bought tickets for the Steelers vs. Browns game. 
We live in Ohio and always get slack for rooting for the Browns, so I was so excited to go to this rivalry game. 
I had my eye on the weather, and it was projected to RAIN!
First negative digits, now rain!
We were going, regardless!!

My favorite Steelers fans!
The other one is in Heaven!
I pretty much grew up as the only girl in my dad's family!
There were other girls, but they didn't live around us, so I grew up watching every sport there was. 
My dad's mom had three boys, so she was used to boys. 
I gained a passion for the Steelers from my grandma and my dad!
I can still remember the day that she passed. I let her know that the Steelers lost the night before and Alex was ragging on them since he's a Browns' fan!! Booo!
I thought she might open her eyes or squeeze my hand to that. 
She didn't-she had Jesus to meet!


Here we are at our seats watching our team warm up!


A little AB for ya!














Shazier!!
So good to see him out walking and on the sidelines!

The rain held off until the fourth quarter!!





JuJu!!

Leveon Who?! 

The girl above sat right beside us!
The atmosphere at the stadium is incredible!
We jumped up basically after every single play!
Everyone was cheering and rooting, and I just love that!



This was one of my absolute favorite days!
Now I want to go to a game every season!
Steelers girl for life!
