Labor Day Weekend and 1st Football Game

We had a full house this Labor Day weekend...it was great! My mom and Grandma Barb got here Thursday night; the Spindler's, my Auntie Diane, Uncle Lance, Uncle Lowell, and Robin got here Friday; and my dad, Brad, Ben, and Vanessa got in to town Friday night. Northern played University of Indy on Saturday so that is why everyone was in town (and to see Rylee of course). We don't get to have a lot of family down here very often so it sure was nice to have everyone here. It was the Spindler's, my aunts and uncles, my Grandma Barb's, and Ben's first time meeting Rylee. She sure did get spoiled with kisses and being held all weekend!

Rylee went to her first football game on Saturday and got to watch her Uncle Brad play. Unfortunately, Northern lost by 2 (we missed an extra point and then had to go for 2 after the next touchdown and we missed it...bummer) 24-22. My dad was pretty upset after the game but he did smile when he held Rylee...that's what granddaughter's are for. Rylee looked so cute in all of her NMU gear and we got lots of pictures. She was really good at the game too. She slept thought all of pre-game, then was up for the first half and slept the rest of the time. She even slept through all of mine and my mom's yelling (if you've ever sat by us at a game you know that we are both extremely loud at games), whistling, the band, and the music - it didn't phase her. That's good because we all know she is going to be at a lot of football games in her future. I think she'll be a big football fan just like the rest of her family!

Rylee with Grandma and Grandpa Spindler for the first time - they were very happy to finally meet her.

Uncle Ben and Rylee - Ben did a great job holding her...look at her look at her Uncle Ben.

My mom made Rylee a NMU hat with Uncle Brad's #4 on it - she wore it proud!
