I absolutely love the start of football season – high school, college, pro… not necessarily bc I understand the rules of the game very well or I'm ready for Fantasy Football drafting to begin, but rather for the simple excitement it brings to seemingly everyone – young and old alike. Perfect strangers will stand around in the gas station, chatting about this play or that, and sports bars everywhere are filled with menfolk who have donned their favorite jerseys.
Sophie is a huge fan of football season too, mostly for the hundreds of spicy garlic chicken wings she and her dad will consume at Buffalo Wild Wings during gametime(s). And although the high school games don't offer chicken wings at the concessions stand, there is plenty of popcorn and candy to share with friends – which is exactly what Sophie did last weekend.
She and two of her gal pals decided they were going to give themselves makeovers and get dressed up in Wildcats colors to cheer on their future high school's team.
Here is her "before" picture…
And here is her "after" picture!
She then realized that tickets cost money, so she sheepishly approached her dad, who is always ready to help his homegirl out…
However, since Sophie is a sensitive soul, she felt it necessary to ask, "Are you sure, Dad?"
And since Sophie is a clever child, she never asks a question without first knowing the answer. 😉
So she happily walked a couple of houses down to meet up with her gal pals, cash in hand.
Watch out, Class of 2018. These girls have spirit, yes they do.

Sophie’s makeover was a success! I love the last picture of her….fast forward 8 years and it will probably mirror her senior photo! Aren’t Dad’s great? Oh yeah…and Mom’s too!! LOL!!
