We were born Bruins

Dressing the girls up in Ucla attire is always an emotional thing. I know sounds crazy, but it reminds me of being a little girl and how proud my Grandpa would be watching us kids walk into his home with UCLA attire. My entire life before I can even remember I was raised to be a Bruin fan. My grandpa use to tell us that we bled blue and gold and there was a time in my childhood where I really truly believed that. The innocence of a child :)

Well it's that time of the year again. UCLA v.s. USC. The big game. Growing up the entire family. Grandpa, Uncles, Aunts, Cousins would all come to town so we can tailgate then go to the Game together. It was always a big day and since it was always around Thanksgiving my family would celebrate Thanksgiving that day. My Grandma and Mom would be at home preparing the big feast hoping and praying UCLA would win so we could have an enjoyable dinner that night because if they lost dinner was usually really quiet and there were really upset men. My Mom is the only Sister out of 4 brothers and for a long time I grew up the only girl out of a group full of boy cousins and my brothers so I had was born a Bruin. My mom never really seamed to thrilled with football. My Grandma had no choice.

So as the tradition lives on............my girls were born Bruins. Right now they don't really have much clue but in time they will. Right now they are just super excited to dress up and look cute. They definitely pulled it off.
