Saturday Afternoon

Yesterday we decided to take Lucy to her first women's basketball game. Off we headed to Sacred Heart University while Caroline stayed home to nap (with a babysitter there, of course).  Lucy was coming off of a fun morning playdate and she was VERY wound up for the game.  Luckily the minute that we got on the highway we turned around and found this scene:

This can't be comfortable.

When we got there we found it odd that there were so many people in the lobby and outside of the athletics center.  We soon found out that high winds had knocked out the power on campus.  Since this was a televised game, we were sure they would be motivated to get it fixed as soon as possible.  Lucy was a trooper and we were able to burn some of her energy by having her run sprints up and down a long hallway.  This activity, along with books, coloring, and snacks, helped to fill the hour or so delay.  When the game finally started Lucy was mesmerized.  Between the student band, the cheerleaders, the announcer, the large crowd, and the basketball game itself, Lucy was impressively well behaved.  Eventually we did resort to buying some food simply for entertainment's sake. There's no harm in a hotdog or two, right?






















We only stayed for a half because of the late start, but we will surely take Lucy again. It was a great day!
