Go Ravens!

With the end of Summer came the beginning of the football season (at least games that count).  The Ravens kicked off their season with a resounding 35-7 victory over the rival Steelers.  Mary's family was in town for a wedding and also got to join Catie for her first Ravens game.

When she wasn't watching Ed Reed intercepting Ben Roethlisberger, she enjoyed the Touchdown Dog dance every time the Ravens scored.

And finally, with the start of the Ravens season, Catie was broke out a new outfit.  The outfit was made by my friend Katie from work who gave it to me when Catie was born.  She planned it out well because it fits Catie just in time for the football season.  I took the opportunity to pose Catie with a lot of Ravens memorabilia.

Thanks a lot Katie for the awesome outfit!

Whirlwind!
