Steelers Fans

Fred and Ellen (Fred's parents) are from Pittsburgh and so support all things/teams from the 'burgh! It was a few years ago when we had Liam all decked out in Steelers gear and this year Ellen got us the gear for both Izzy and Liam. We spent the evening with our good friends Meaghan, Greg and Maeve, who are big Steelers fans too. Too bad they didn't win, but the kiddos looked cute!

Liam and Izzy ready for the game!


Izzybelly's reaction when she heard about the loss.


Liam too was beside himself with grief--his beloved Steelers. Their loss was his loss.

Hi there Liam, and Isabelle
It was fun to get you dressed like Pittsburgh Steelers fans, in preparation for the XLVth Super Bowl. Even though they didn't win, they are lucky to have fans like you. I think you must be the cutest fans they have ! The smartest and best looking too :-)))

Oh! I am not a sport fan but I can feel your pain, Liam and Isabelle.
I know it is a big deal for most to win - but it is only a game! They will try again next time. Grandma O is right - you are their cutest fans. You will have fun watching them playing again soon. So, wipe your tears away and put the cutest smiles upon your faces.

Lots of love,
Grandma R
