We went with Poppy DeVon to another basketball game. This time in addition to sitting with my Uncle Russ, Stef came along (Russ didn't have someone to fill his other seat). Ellie either really likes basketball or it fun to walk all around the Huntsman Center. She will sit and watch about the first 15 minutes and then play around for another 10-15 before she wants to go up top and walk around to visit Grandma Wendy and Grandma Great Bonnie.
She loves dancing to the music they play during time outs and at halftime. Sadly the Running Utes aren't pulling a huge crowd but I am ok with this as Ellie can just run free around the hallways. This game the mini donut guy was at the game. He make great little donuts. He is normally stationed right next to where my mom works so during one of Ellie's adventures to visit Grandma we walked by. Well one of the teams took a time out and the music started. Of course Ellie started dancing right in the middle of the walkway. The donut guy thought that was so cute that he gave Ellie and I a free sample of a donut.
She also enjoys climbing all over the seats. This game we found Swoop (the mascot). Ellie loved Mickey so we went to have a picture taken with Swoop. She walked right up to him and then Swoop bent down and she came running back to me.
She was ok with being next to him and touching him if I was right there. It was hilarious because she was making this sound that was hard to tell if she was laughing or starting to cry. She was a good sport about having her picture taken as long as she was on the outside away from Swoop. It was a fun night.
