RAIDERS WIN!

Ever since my brother Chad was a little kid he has been in love with the Raiders and football! Well, he taught me to love the game and the Raiders too. I have been a fan of both the game and the team for a long time. When Chad and I were younger we use to set on the coach every Sunday and watch the game. When the Raiders scored we would give eachother high -fives with our feet, good times! Well, this past weekend I finally had the chance to go to my first NFL football game at Invesco Field in Denver. It just so happened that my first NFL game also got to be the first time I watched my favorite team the Raiders live. Kevin's three young cousins flew in and spent the weekend with us and joined us at the game. Despite the fact that today my house looks like a "MAN CAVE," it has been really fun to have them here. Yesterday, we got up early and went to Denver to watch the game. It was so much fun and excititng to be there. I was also pleseantly suprised to see my team win! All and all it was such a fun experience, I will definatly do it again. The only way it could have possiable been better is if my brother could have joined us! Oh well there is always next year.

3. The three drunks that charged the field and got tackled by security-and then they all did the funniest dances as they were taken off the field.

4.The look on the Broncos fans that were surronding me when I was screaming like crazy everytime the Raiders took it down the field for a touchdown

The adventures of Motherhood!

Oh the adventures of motherhood, it is a crazy road and everyday is a new experience. Today has just been one of those days. You know one of those days when you get every bodily function spewed on you. When you go from laughing to wanting to pull your hair out all in the span of a few mintues. One of those days when you look at the clock and realize it is almost 1:30 and you are still in your p.j.'s and your hair is a crazy mess. One of those days when you forget to eat, and trust me I don't forget to eat very often(food is my favorite.) However, now that the sweet little angel is finally taking his nap that should have happened at 10:30 I realize how completly lucky I am to have him. You know it took me a while to get pregnant it was a rough road with some disappointments along the way. But, I would go through it all again in a heartbeat for him. His little smile lights up a room and his laugh melts my heart. It sounds so cheesy I am sure, but Porter is such a blessing to Kevin and I. The other day Kevin asked me if I had blogged lately, and I replied no my life is not that exciting. His response made me think he said, " are you kidding me you get to spend everyday with Porter and watch him grow and develop." Sometimes I will admit I get a little down when I see my friends I graduated with have their own classes and are teachers. I sometimes wish I could be doing that, however when I stop and think about it, I wouldn't change this year for anything. I love being with my little man everyday and seeing him learn and discover new things!! It's all worth it when at the end of a day like today, your rocking him in your arms and he looks up and you and smiles. It is the greatest feeling in the world! My dad always told me that one day I would get it, well Dad I finally got it!!!

A Girl's best Gift!

Just wanted to tell my sisters how much I love them and how lucky I am to have two of them. They are the best in the world, they are honest with me, laugh with me, and our my best friends. Thanks to my chica's, I love and miss you!

10-0

Last Night was the Utes vs. TCU game, Porter and his daddy had a manly night of watching the game together. Porter was awake for most of it, but just couldn't last. However, you better believe Kevin and I did, that game was a nail-bitter. It was a crazy ending, but an exciting one. I have to say that football makes men do some crazy crap! Watching Kevin in those last few mintues of the game was so funny! I should have recorded it. GO UTES 10-0!!!

Just for my Mom

Porter just wanted to say HI GRAMMIE, I LOVE U!!!

One of the main reason's I do this whole blog thing is so my family can watch Porter grow and keep updated on our daily lives. My mom loves looking at my blog and seeing pictures of Porter. Today we just wanted to drop a little line to Grammie and tell her and Grandpa how much we love and miss them. Plus we bought Porter this killer p.j.'s that he looked adorable in and we just like showing off our little guy! P.S. Just want to remind everyone to get out and vote today. It is a really important election for our country so GET OUT AND VOTE! For me personal I think McCain in the man for the job, he has my vote. I realize that not everyone who reads my blog would agree that's your right. So get out and exercise that right today and VOTE!

HAPPY HALLOWEEN!!!

This is Porter and Mommy in our festive Halloween shirts!

For those of you who know me well you all know that I love Halloween. Maybe it's because my birthday is the day before or its just the fact that you can dress up like a crazy idoit and it's perfectly exceptable. I don't know but whatever the reason I love it. However, it was even more fun this year with Porter and we had a great day. We had so much fun dressing Porter up as a Tiger, we took him to Walmart were they had a little Halloween thing going on and everyone thought he was so adorable. However, people kept saying oh how cute Tigger, well we didn't want people to think he was tigger. So my husband came up with the idea to upgrade his custome. We went and got a mini box of frosted flakes and superglued it to his custome, so he then became Tony the Tiger- it was so funny. That night some of our friends from the lawschool all got together and had a little Halloween Party. It was a good day and a good first Halloween for Porter. P.S. Does anyone else agree that it is stupid people don't go door to door anymore? That's what Halloween is all about, and that was what was fun for me as a kid.
