Dutch Fans 4 Life

So each year - we head to Pella to take in a Dutch football game. Since D played and we got hooked. In fact, we usually listen to the game on the radio. Sounds crazy uh? Well thanks to an app on d's phone we don't have to spend the afternoon in the car half backed out of the garage to get it to come in. Now it just blares throughout the house from his phone in his pocket.

We don't know many players but we know the traditions and thats what makes it fun. We get some popcorn, pack lots of snacks and hope for the best as kickoff is right during nap time.

Well this year we went over early to take some pictures with the kids. A good friend of ours took them and I am anxiously awaiting. We grabbed some lunch and Ells actually made it through the entire game and it was a great one. She was quite delirious toward the end and fell asleep in the parking lot (and its nothing like the ISU or Iowa games).

Here are some pics for the day - forgot my camera so we had to rely on the phone.

Plus a little video of Shadd singing the fight song! Thanks to his daddy he has known it since he could talk. Live, eat and breathe it, right! As they are all downstairs watching the JETS play on tv while I make some cookies for the game!

Just leaving the parking lot - only 3 hours later than normal for naps. 

We ditched the tights after photos

Always has to do what Daddy does
