Violette’s First Celtics Game
(6 weeks old)
Violette went to her first Celtic’s game – it was a preseason game versus the 76ers. We practiced wearing the headphones while watching Sunday football in the afternoon. At the Garden, she slept through the first two quarters and we decided to take her out of the baby carrier before we left (we wanted to leave while it was still fun and not wait for a meltdown) – turns out, V LOVES watching the Jumbotron lights and trying to track the players as they run up and down the floor. VAF Game 1 was a success (it also turns out that we now count Celtics game successes if we can enjoy attending the game which is more dependent on V than on a W or a L).
