We finally took Jakob to his first live sporting event: a college hockey game! Scott and Anne invited us to join Chuck and Molly for a Dartmouth-Cornell game last Saturday night, so we took the trip down to White River Junction for dinner and a game. Jakob loved checking out a new house, playing with his cousin Sam, taking the shuttle bus to and from the game, and the game itself. He was awed by everything about the game...the lights, crowds, music, and food. He spent a good amount of the game chasing tween girls around (they all thought he was adorable and funny, which encouraged him to chase them even more) and eating. All in all, it was a ton of fun, and we're looking forward to taking him to see more live sporting events.
