Erin,
When training camp began, we had only planned to attend one day of training camp and the night practice, but last week my husband and I decided to attend one more time... and I was so glad we did.
This time there were more people so we had to sit on the hillside (rather than the bleachers), but lucky me -- it was the hillside where Ben always signs autographs. After practice we stood right at the fence line. Of course you get tons of people trying to shove their way in but lucky me again, I am married to a Marine, lol...
As Ben approached my heart was beating a mile a minute, I couldn't believe I was actually this close to him and as he walked up to me and signed my football, I asked, "Would you please take a picture with me?" and he said, "Sure, if you have someone to take it!". I wanted to say something to him but that's about all that would come out, lol. I was speechless.
After everything that has happened, I can honestly say he such a sweet guy, all smiles - and Ben was so great with the kids...
Today was a great day. They say the third time's a charm, well I can definitely agree with that because this was our third trip to training camp this year and I got to meet Ben... wouldn't trade it for anything.
