Seahawks vs. Lions

Look at that joyful glow

 

When we talked to the kids about the move to Michigan in the summer, one boy was very sad to leave behind what he knew and his favorite football team. We promised him a chance to watch the Seahawks in person and last Sunday, he and Mike watched the Seahawks narrowly lose to the Lions in a very exciting game. Ben LOVED the whole experience and even took the loss in stride (he is an optimist about these things; there is always next game!). He went up to a fellow Hawks fan who was about his age and  introduced himself and talked a little football. The Lions fan sitting next to him made the mistake of asking him if he knew anything about football and Ben probably taught him a little bit before the day was over. 

Other than the loss, the biggest disappointment was that the stadium security prohibited him from bringing his football in to be signed. But he had a great day and hopes to go again soon.
