We were lucky enough to receive some free tickets to last Sunday's Chiefs v. Rams Football game. We had three tickets and decided to suprise Acel with the tickets. We could have received more tickets, but we knew that the other three wouldn't enjoy the game, which would mean that we wouldn't enjoy the game, so we decided to take Acel by himself. It's always nice to take one child by themselves now and then. They love the extra special attention and it is definitely a nice break and quite odd to only have to watch one child!
I had gotten up at 5:00 am to get ready since we had to drive to St. Louis. At about 5:30, I went to go get Acel, who is our early riser, and found him all ready awake. I told him to get dressed and come downstairs that Dad and I had a suprise for him. On Saturday, I had went to Dick's Sporting Goods and found a Matt Cassel shirt for him and Mark had wrapped it up. I gave him the gift to open and he opened it. Acel does not get excited over anything, he said, "It's a Matt Cassel shirt". I said, "Where would be a good place to wear that shirt?" He said, "A Chief's game". I'm so excited, of course and he was too, but he just does not show excitement. I said, "Yeah, baby, we're going to the game." He just looked at Mark and I and said, "Suh-Weet." Later in the car he said, "Mom, I've got four words for you, Best Christmas Present E-Ver!"
After getting inside the stadium, we found our seats. Thankfully, Acel thinks the higher you are, the better your seats! Me, not so much, but they weren't too bad and he loved them. The game started out kind of slow for the Chiefs, but they started picking up momentum and when they made their first touchdown, the guys in front of us started hi-fiving and turned around and were hi-fiving us and Acel was looking around like we were all crazy, but hurried and put down his pop to get in on the hi-fiving.
Even though it was a long drive, it was definitely worth it! GO CHIEFS!!
