Born to Be a Buckeye

Like any good Buckeye fans, we are proudly brainwashing our son :) Elijah has been watching Ohio State football since he was only a few weeks old:


And at five months, he proudly sported scarlet and gray:

This fall, we haven't been able to watch the games, but Elijah still knows who to root for. It would have been better to post this last weekend in honor of the big game against Michigan, but we wanted to wait until family members could see this shirt in person--especially Pops (who, as a Michigan fan, would hate it), and Uncle Duh (who, as an Ohio State fan, would love it).

First an action shot:

And then a better look at what the shirt says:

He's even wearing socks that say "Born to be a Buckeye" :)

This is highly unacceptable. ;)

Noticed there wasn't too much trash talk this weekend about the games. Sorry again about your loss in West Lafayette, but we've been brought up to be good sports when it comes to sports so we didn't want to rub it in too much. Something we want to pass on to our children....no "haters" here:) Good seeing you guys over the weekend. Take care...
