Well the first pre-season game for the Bears was on Saturday at 7 pm. Jeff and I had talked about whether Payton was ready for such a big adventure. We both agreed that he should be and it was a preseason game so they could leave early if they would like. We talked to Payton and he expressed that he wanted daddy, Ole Poppa and Poppa to go with him. Jeff made calls and bought the tickets and it was all ready to go.
They left at Noon on Saturday and Payton was pumped. He had Bears stuff on from Head to Toe.
They arrived in Chicago a little before 3pm so they could the best tailgating spot. The rain didn't even keep them down. Here is what their set up looked like
The rain stopped and they got to enjoy the game. Here is a picture I got from Payton...He knows mommy loves nachos.
Of course mommy was jealous.
Payton wanted to stay for the whole game and enjoyed it. He got to see the fireworks at the end of the game and also got a bonus of seeing Navy Piers fireworks on the way to the van.
The made it home safe and exhausted. Jeff and Payton got to sleep in but more Ole Poppa did not because Braxton was excited to see and to wake him up.
Payton had a blast and is looking forward to the next time he gets to go with Daddy to Soldier Field. .
Side story...Because Payton is shy and most strangers have a hard time understanding him Jeff and I decided to write his name and Jeff's cell phone on it just in case he got lost because we both know it is extremly busy and lots of people. Well when they got there Payton got a wristband that could be scanned and would tell an usher where his seat was. So on Saturday night on their way home Payton called mommy to tell me that He loved me and that he didn't get lost. I was so proud of him...Here is another picture of Payton.
