Packers vs. Detroit on a Cold Night in December

On December 9th, Mike and I traveled to Green Bay to watch the Packers take on the Detroit Lions.  When Mike purchased the tickets back on a hot day in August, we knew the game was in early December but we didn't take notice of the 7pm start time.  When the day finally arrived, it wasn't too bitterly cold, but our Wisconsin weather did bring a flurry of big huge snow flakes!


So, this is what we looked like on that blustery December night. Thanks to my mom's expert advice, I had my feet wrapped in not one but two plastic bags each inside of my boots (which was an absolute lifesaver because they were soaked all the way through by the time we got into Lambeau), snow pants, and (also thanks to Mom) hot packs in my big winter mittens. Mike managed to get his Packer onsie on over his winter coat along with lots of layers underneath. We were ready!!

We made it!! Lambeau field...here we are!!!!!
Either the baby is a Packer fan by genetics or liked the noise of the crowd, because it was having a little party in my belly throughout the game. Its crazy to think that next year at this time, we'll be watching the Packers with a little baby in our lives!

It started to get cold by the end, but we were still having fun!


And, the Packers won! All in all, a fantastic, awesome, memorable, amazing night.
