Uncle Evan and Jackson in front of Bancroft Hall, which is the dorm for all the midshipmen.
Have I mentioned that Jackson is walking like a champ? He is off to Bancroft...
After our visit to the Academy we went to Cantler's and then were off to a football game. Go Navy, Beat Army! This was Jackson's first football game and he seemed to do really well. By this time we had been going non-stop. Poor Jackson was a little under the weather. I'll spare the yucky details, let's just say that Jackson ended up completely naked in the parking lot of Cantler's and I had to make a quick run to the mall to get the J man a new pair of jeans...but he rallied and off to the game we went.
Jackson and Uncle Evan discussing the game...
TOUCHDOWN NAVY!!!
Jackson and Daddy watching the game...
We went out to dinner following the game and poor Jackson ended up completely naked again in a parking lot! I hope this doesn't become a habit!!
On Sunday we went back to the Academy for another quick stroll around. Jackson didn't see much of it, he napped most of the time...here we are inside Bancroft.
Daddy and Jackson inside Bancroft.
Here is the Chapel on the yard, it's beautiful on the inside, but Church was going on, so we didn't go in.
Evan was on the crew team at the Academy, so we walked the 400 miles down to the Boat House to check it out too.
Uncle Evan and Jackson in front of Herndon (I think). All I know is this is greased up at the end of the Plebe year and the plebes (freshmen) have to climb to the top and switch out their covers. At least I think this is true- Evan correct me if I'm wrong!
Hanging out in the yard in front of the Chapel.
We all came home on Sunday and Uncle Evan spent the week here. We hadn't seen him since December and we probably won't get to see him again until June. It was nice to hang out with him and we'll miss him terribly while he's gone.
We love you Uncle Evan, can't wait to see you in June!!!

Looks like a great time had by all!! Jackson is such a sweetie.
It looks like Jackson (and you and Jared) had a great time, even if there were some minor incidents leading to nakedness. I love the pic of Jackson in the ballgame with him pom. So cute!
Cool pictures. Glad you guys had a good visit and that Jackson cooperated - minus the wardrobe issues.
