Broncos Season

Kris got to take Kasey to his first ever Bronco game this year.  Karsten went last year, but on Kasey's turn... it rained and we didn't end up going to the game.  On Aug 29th, we tried again and succeeded.  Kasey was super impressed with tailgating and our seats.  Although, the night game finally won out and he dozed off in the second half.

Sept 3rd was Amy's turn to take one of her little men to the game.  She loved hearing Karsten's excitement and him telling her that he knew Manning wouldn't play because it was preseason and we didn't want him to get hurt.  What a smart little dude.  He also was super impressed by the seats and the game, but darn it if the night game won again ... he followed his brother and dozed off in the second half.  In fact, the tired boy even scored a pedi-cab ride most of the way back to  our car.

Our next game wasn't until Oct 4th due to scheduling.  Crazy! But it was a very important game.  Vikings vs the Broncos!  What a fun day in our home.  The boys never could decide who they wanted to support.  They wore Vikings jerseys, but were never far from their Bronco helmets or Bronco footballs.  We had fun tailgating with Kris' coworkers (Kate and Dan) and were astonished when Dan offered us his seats after halftime.  Did I mention they were 26 rows up on the 40 yard line? Holy Buckets!  What a great way to watch my two favorite teams play!  One of the best and closest scoring game we watched this year!  Great Day all around (even if the Vikings lost).

 

Nov 1st was another cool game for Amy.  It was the Packers and Amy has never seen them in person before.  Lisa was in town visiting, so Kris was sweet enough to let the girls go to the game.  We enjoyed some card games while tailgating and then headed in for the big game. This game made 8 wins in a row for the Broncos.  The stadium was insane!

Nov 15th was the traditional Chiefs game with Angie.  Each year, Amy sells Angie two tickets to the Broncos and then Angie turns around and sells one right back to Amy to go with her!  Seems like a pretty sweet deal!  I was feeling a little bad about the fact that Kris has only gone to two games this year (and one was preseason), but the sushi we had at tailgating filled that hollow feeling in my stomach.

The last regular season game was Jan 3rd.  I know you saw a pattern of Amy at 'all' the games this year, but Kris finally got to go!  And, extra bonus ~ He took his Dad!  It was a mighty game with a lot of enthusiasm from the stands; especially with the return of Manning mid-game who was out with an injury most of the season.  They both enjoyed watching the Broncos win the top seed in the playoffs.  Go Broncos!
