Re-Vo-Lu-Tion!!

Dear Caleb,

In case you haven't realized it yet, your Daddy LOVES soccer. He likes to watch it, to play it, to talk about it. His favorite team right now is the English team Arsenal. But he also loves the New England Revolution. As a matter of fact, this year he has season's tickets. He really likes going to the games, so it was only a matter of time before he wanted to take you!

You were almost four months old when you attended your first Rev's game. I was a little nervous about taking you, but Daddy was so excited. It was a bit cool, so we bundled you up and headed to Gilette Stadium. We met up with Tony and Kerry in the parking lot and you had your first tailgating experience. You seemed to enjoy it. We heated your milk on the little hibachi and Daddy fed you, so you were pretty happy. He wore you into the game in the sling, and you were pretty content. It was noisy in the game, but you didn't fuss. You stayed awake, looking around at all the people and things going on. The Revolution took the lead pretty quick, which made Daddy happy. I could tell how much he loved having you at the game with him. I know he can't wait until your bigger and going to the games becomes a regular thing for the two of you!

We stayed at the game until almost the very end, we left about ten minutes early. The Revs won and Daddy got to have his first soccer experience with his boy!
