Indiana, Owen's All For You!


This past weekend, Owen made his second trip to Indiana. Other than to see Grandma and Grandpa (of course), the main reason for our trip was to head to Bloomington for Owen's first IU game! I surprised Justin with 3 tickets to the IU/Ohio State game (yes, I said 3 - Owen required a ticket!), and I thought we'd enjoy a nice family trip to catch a basketball game. Owen had other plans, though. He did really well at first. For the better part of the first half, he just sat on our laps and looked around, taking everything in. It was really pretty cute! Then, he got sleepy, and it was all downhill from there. I tried to get him to go to sleep, but IU was actually playing well, and the crowd was VERY loud. Every time he would get close to going to sleep, the crowd would cheer, and he would scream bloody murder. It broke my heart! We immediately made the decision to leave at halftime.

Owen stopped crying as soon as we got away from the crowd - I started crying as soon as we got to the car, and cried until we got out of Bloomington. :)

Owen all decked out in his cream and crimson sweater (he had on an IU onesie, too - sooo cute!).  He was really excited about going to the game :)

We wouldn't (and couldn't) have gone to Indiana without seeing family either.  It was a busy weekend, but it was so great to see everyone!
