We are an Indiana family through and through!!!!
Because I graduated from Indiana University we naturally root for IU in all things. I have raised my girls as Indiana fans! It is a great to be IU fans because you get to teach humility in winning and loosing because the football team is not the best and the basketball team has its positive moments. I love that no matter win or loose my girls know you root for the cream and crimson!!! When we are out shopping the girls will tell you that anything IU is mommy's team!
It was great to be able to take them to see the campus and show them the stadiums that we see on TV. I now have one that is convinced she will go to IU and play softball!!! Great traditions! My goal is to get them to an IU football game this fall! That is my absolute favorite! Nothing can beat sitting in a football stadium rooting on your team!
Speaking of football, the other major team we root for is the Colts! I so wish we could take the girls to a game because the atmosphere at a Colts game is amazing! It is so loud! They were able to go on a tour with us when Lucas Oil Stadium opened. They loved it because they could get down on the field and into the locker rooms. The hubby and I have been to a couple of games, that is actually where I realized I was pregnant with one of the girls. Walking through a store Jenna will see Colts blue and all you hear is, "That's Daddy's team!" Sunday is always football day and the girls know they don't get the big TV until the game is over.
Once football is over we are watching IU basketball but not like football.
Then come baseball season. There are no real pro allegiance in this family. The hubby likes the Cubs but doesn't have to watch them. He would much rather see them in person. We do like to go to the local baseball field and cheer on the TinCaps!! It is a great place to watch baseball!!
So who does your family root for?
