Megan gave Grampie a little gift upon arrival. His very own Denver Broncos long sleeve t-shirt. The instructions were plain and simple...you must wear this Saturday night when the Broncos host the New England Patriots to decide who would enter the AFC Championship game. If you know my Dad's allegience to New England sports teams, you'd understand the anguish this presented him. He was a good sport about it (how could you not be when a cute 3 yr old was the gift giver).
The scene was perfect...a warm Denver night, we just finished eating a steak & chicken fajita dinner and in the presence of non-immediate family witnesses Scott, Catrina & Kelsey...he displayed the shirt and wore it the whole night. Fortunately, the Pats didn't give him much to root for...and I think that deep down, he enjoyed it.
awesome. i was just thinking about you guys when i heard that denver beat the patriots. superbowl on the horizon?
ReplyDeleteCool new couch!
ReplyDeleteAll of New England is holding you personally responsible for the Pats loss because of that shirt! You completely jinxed us....and he didn't take it off even after the first couple bad plays...arrrrrrgh!
