Ryder's first NFL Stadium

As most of you can imagine, we all thought Ryder's first NFL game would be at Heinz Field, but it ended up this past weekend...at Arrowhead.

On Friday, Ryder and I drove to Kansas City and stayed in his first hotel room, the Sheridan Inn. He requires a lot of stuff, so getting in and out of the hotel would have been tough, but Ricky had some equipment guys get us all settled in. Thanks Ricky. Friday we spent shopping and visited Tannah’s restaurant. It belongs to the parents' of one of Ricky's tight ends. It was wonderful. I cannot wait to go back!

We also realized Friday night that Ryder was getting his second tooth. Not the greatest timing considering we were staying with Ricky, who needed his sleep to prepare. Plus, we were surrounded by players, who definitely needed their sleep the night before a game. Thankfully, Ryder did great!

On Saturday we went to Arrowhead, home of the Kansas City Chiefs. K-State won another one. They beat Iowa State, 24-23 with a blocked extra point in the last seconds of the game. It was very exciting. Nicely done K-State. You are 3-0 with Ryder there!

We were all happy to hear Maryland clinch a win over Clemson. Nice job Uncle Mike!! We went 2 for 2 this weekend. With A Steelers victory late last night, the weekend was a perfect success.
Enjoy the pictures.

Everyone thought the cupholder with a bottle was very funny. Not a common sight.

It got pretty cold at times. Ryder looked like a purple snowman (or Barney).
Hanging out with Daddy after the game, that close win was exhausting.
