U-C-L-A! Fight! Fight! Fight!

Well, it's another festival this weekend so we're on our own. Fortunately this one is local so even though we don't get Gina back until after bed time, she's still here for a while in the morning. But that gives us kids all day to ourselves. Yesterday was the start of the UCLA football season so the girls and I went to my friends house to watch their first game. Now, two weeks before they were born I bought these official Adidas cheerleader outfits for them to wear come football season. I bought them in 12 month sizes thinking they'd be 10 months old at kickoff; we should get a couple months out of them. They stopped fitting in to them in June. ... so much for that idea. Anyway, the game itself was a good experience for the girls. It'll get them used to the disappointment inherent in being a UCLA fan. Close game is lost on a failed 2 point conversion with 2 minutes left and then a failure to recover an onside kick leads to a break away 60 yard touchdown rush with under a minute. But who wants to root for the team that always wins, right? That would just get boring. I think if we had those cheerleader outfits things might have been different. At least it would have been a cute photo op.
