Patriots Training Camp

The first weekend in August, Tim and the kids headed down to Massachusetts to celebrate Lucia's first birthday (that will be a separate post).  I couldn't go because I was out of town at a conference in Texas and was not able to get back into town soon enough to drive to MA with them.  Tim decided to drive down there on Thursday night so that on Friday they could go to Patriots training camp.

When I talked to Tim about it to see what they thought he said that the kids loved it.  I was kind of surprised that a 4 and 2 year old would LOVE watching a football practice... turns out what they loved was the ten bounce houses that happened to also be at the practice.  It sounds like they also enjoyed watching the football a bit, but hands down the bounce houses were the best.

Patriots training camp fun

And now, on to the REALLY fun part - the bounce houses!  That is Cameron climbing up the ladder.

Cam and Leah loved them!

Tim was so glad that he was able to go check out the training camp, he has been wanting to go for years.  The fact that the kids liked it, Grandpa could go with them and Ryan could meet them there just made it all the more fun.  Ever since they went, the kids have been yelling "Go Patriots!" at random times.  They loved it!!
