It’s Against the Law If You Are Not a Packer Fan

If you grow up in Wisconsin like my children and myself have it’s nearly against the law if you are not a Green Bay Packer fan. My husband is a Pittsburgh Steeler fan and as much as he would like to lure our children to his side it is clear that I have won!

This is what happens when you grow up in Wisconsin:

You have to start out young wearing Packer clothes

Dad messes up your haircut and you have to wear a Packer shirt

You get a black eye that your Mom wants to take a picture of and you just happen to be wearing a Packer coat

You have to play games wearing Packer clothes

You have to decorate cookies wearing Packer clothes

They have Packer Days at school!

Even as a baby you are envious of your older brother’s Packer clothes!

You get mad when the Packers lose!

You’re happy when the Packers win!

It makes you nervous to watch them sometimes!

Sometimes they make you crazy!

You get to attend awesome free kid’s events at the stadium!

You get to go to a Packer game during Family Night!

 

And if the Packers head to the Super Bowl, your school does a mob dance to send to the Packers! My daughter got to participate 2 years ago in this when the Packers went to the Super Bowl!

Go Pack Go!!!!

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

The Hopeless Photo-Taking Family

Here are just a few quick pictures for you this Sunday before we begin spending our last day with my mother-in-law before she heads back to Albuquerque, NM.

I mentioned in my very first post Motherhood is an Art Form that we are NOT a photogenic family. Either something happens right as the camera is clicked or we just can’t get ourselves together to look decent.

Our last family photo was no exception. Last weekend we attended a Green Bay Packer football game and here are our results!

Here we are at my parent’s house, dropping off our littlest one before we headed out to the Packer game. Bency, our 5 year old insisted on wearing his Spider Man mask to the game!

Here we are at the Green Bay Packer game! This is the only photo we got with all of us in it! Notice Iris, our 7 year old decided to fix her hair just as the photo was being taken…and of course, Bency still has that Spider Man mask on!!!
