CU Pep Rally

On Friday Night, Nana, Papa, Ashtyn and I headed down to Pearl Street in Boulder to attend the CU Pep Rally. The CU Band along with all the players and cheerleaders march down the center of Pearl Street from the Court House to Old Chicago's playing CU fight songs and shouting cheers - it was so much fun! Ashtyn loved the whole thing - She clapped and danced to the music. The band actually stops along the way and performs about 5 songs - which was great entertainment! The drum line stopped in front of us, which to me are the most fun in the band, even though our ears were ringing by the end. Ashtyn loved watching the drum line dance around and bang on their drums. One of the drummers thought she was so cute he gave Ashtyn his drum sticks and let her bang on his drum - she got a kick out of that. Along with the drum sticks she came home with a football and a Pom Pom - She is now officially a Buff fan! I think Mimi will be very proud of her Great Granddaughter! It was a great night and it got everyone in the mood for the Buff's game against Wyoming on Saturday - which I think they actually won. When Ashtyn gets older we will have to take her to one of the games - I remember the first CU game I ever went to against the Texas Longhorns - the atmosphere of the game was just so much fun and I remember learning the CU fight song for the first time and feeling so cool! I hope Ashtyn will get to share in the same excitement and have fun watching the Buffs play! She might be Nana's new date to the basketball games - It was a great Friday night, and reminded me how fun it is to cheer on the Buffs - GO BUFFS!
