Love and Basketball






There are few things Eoin loves more in this world than his grandparents and ISU Redbird basketball. He often gets the opportunity to mix the two; our first ISU game of the season was against UNLV and sadly it wasn't pretty for the Redbirds. Eoin was told on our way home that we were going to go see basketball and he couldn't contain his excitement and HAD to put on his Redbird sweatshirt (is is beginning to get a little tight!). We ate in the Legends Room prior to the game and he barely ate, he just wanted to see basketball. Our seats were unfortunately not next to Gramma and Papa, but he got to see them nonetheless. Eoin was enthralled by Reggie Redbird; I'm so happy he isn't afraid! After securing a rally towel and a 'shake shake' we headed home . . . he now has two more items to add to his 'entourage.' The sweetest thing of the night was during the game when he turned to Jordan and said 'thank you, Daddy' just out of the blue! He was so happy to be there! He truly is the sweetest little man!
