Jazz vs. Celtics

Feb. 19th finally came. I don't know who was more excited Craig or Tyler. They both acted like little kids on the Christmas Eve, waiting so anxiously to see Santa Claus. They left early for the game so that they could eat and then go to Energy S0lutions Arena early so they could go down to the floor and see the players warm up. Tyler was just awe struck when he saw the team warming up. He even tried giving the players five when they came out of the tunnel, but his arms were a little to short.
Craig found the best seats. Tyler approved. Craig spent hours on the computer checking availability, then seeing what the view would be and then checking some more and more. Finally I told him just buy some tickets and be done. He was losing to much sleep over which tickets to purchase. Fatherly love is great!!!

Players getting ready to start the game.
Okur at the line. This was a crucial part in the game for Jazz to get the win over the Celtics.
Tyler was so excited the Jazz won. He got lots of treasures from people handing out free things, and I had one tired son when he got home at 12:30 a.m. on a school night. But losing a little sleep was well worth having this time with his dad, at his first Jazz game. A memory he will have forever.

I love his grin from ear to ear in every picture! You can tell he had the time of his life.
