I think these guys summed up Wednesday night’s Armour Up best…

We think it does too, gentlemen.

To say AU GAMEDAY was a huge hit with the kids is an understatement.  There’s something about putting a jersey on a boy that elicits AWESOME expressions.  There was some of this (aka the ‘open mouth’)…

A little of this (aka the ‘game face’)..

And a LOT of this (aka the ‘I love Oregon even though someone is about to take a bite out of my right hand face’)…

The kids enjoyed sporting their favorite teams, but I have a hunch our leaders did even more (this might actually be the first time they have participated in theme night, so they might get a raise.  Or the Heisman.  I forget which one.)

 By the way, did anyone notice the adorable sign made by one of our kids?

Please note the “WE WILL (washington)”.

I’ll say it again…Adorable.  Apparently it caught Will’s attention as well.  Who doesn’t love a personalized homemade sign? And by an AGGIE nonetheless.  Gig ’em.

Speaking of Will…several of you have asked about how to find Will’s weekly recap videos.  Nathan (PRESIDENT OF MENSA – Graphics Division) has added them on our media page for your convenience.  These are 2-3 minute videos highlighting the main points of Will’s weekly messages.  Please feel free to share these with your kids or reference them as needed throughout the year.  Our website has several resources for you and your children, so please check it out.
