For Henry's birthday Mark got the family tickets to the playoff game. Francie's first time (aside from as a baby) going to a game. They were pumped. Francie has worn her Blazer jersey the last two days. Papa bought them wrist bands, Henry a new shirt, and a special sound effect toy. We got to the game and Francie could barely contain herself...and then they turned out the lights and blasted the music. She promptly ran out. After the lights were back on, we went back and she was hooked. Henry taught her the ropes...throughout the game explaining what was going on and showing her how to chant the Blazer cheers. The game was an EMOTIONAL roller coaster...like put someone who is 31 weeks preggo into labor - roller coaster. The fans were incredible. We entered the fourth quarter losing by 20...and ended up winning by two. The sound in the stadium was deafening..and at the end too much for Miss Francie who spent the last two minutes with her hands over her head. Numerous fans around us informed me that I now have to consider naming the baby Brandon after Brandon Roy's performance...we will see.
My parents were also at the game....we met up with them afterwards and I went to get a picture, but instead had the camera on video. Not sure if I am sleep deprived and going a little wacky, but I thought this short clip was hysterical. Henry's grandparents are hilarious.

The picture of Henry yelling is the best ever.
Well, new baby could be Brandina or even Roy or Royina - it's worth thinking about. Do the Blazers know that Henry is their number one fan? He could conduct how-to-be-a-fan seminars!!
