Chiefs game....take 2

As I told you....

this year we decided to be dedicated and devoted Chief's fans and actually go to a game...

well, actually... two...


We had the opportunity to go again...

and to the playoff game no less!

We couldn't turn it down!  I mean, come on...they were going to the playoffs!!!!


It was just Chris and I this time!  And, it was much colder!

But, we had awesome seats... 
once in a lifetime seats...

ROW 1.... 
50 yard line....
Chief's side...

I mean...can you really get better than that!


We were SO close! 



Here's coach Haley talking with QB Matt Cassel and a couple other offensive players...


The only bad thing about the whole thing was that they didn't win the game!  They sorta "fell apart" in the third quarter!

Oh well...  We're still proud of our team!  There is always next year!

And, hopefully we will get to go to another game next season too!!

Chief's Game

So as I told you…


I got Chief’s tickets for Chris for Christmas this year!

We are devout Chief’s fans…but usually from the living room couch!

This year is different!

We’ve been to one Chief’s game prior to this and we knew how much fun they are, but it had been quite some time and we had forgotten what it is like to be in the “SEA OF RED”!

This year, our friends Tim and Hilary joined us for the trip to KC.

They are huge OU fans and of course the night before the Chief’s game, OU played at the Fiesta Bowl.

So Saturday, we all wore our OU stuff (provided by them) and watched the game (from our table at Dave & Busters)!

OU Won! Thankfully…as Tim gets kinda cranky when they lose!

And the next day…we geared up in our layers and layers of Red and Yellow and headed to Arrowhead stadium!

We had GREAT seats!...

40 yard line, lower section, Chief’s side, 38th Row…. PERFECT!

And, the weather cooperated as best as could be expected for Jan 2nd! But, we were well prepared and dressed accordingly!

The only bummer to the day was that the Chief’s lost!

Good thing they had already secured their title as AFC West CHAMPIONS!!!

We had such a blast! Thanks Nickels’ for going with us! And for all the laughs!

Now…on to the playoffs…!!! GO KC!

Christmas 2010

As I promised…

Here is our Christmas morning at a glance….


I LOVE Christmas morning!

I LOVE watching my children’s eyes as they open their gifts!

I LOVE sitting around the lit Christmas tree at 5:30 in the morning! Honestly!

I LOVE sipping my coffee and eating my grandma’s famous Swedish Sweet Rolls! (Thanks mom for getting these made this year!)

I LOVE taking turns opening presents so we get to see what everyone got! (Even if it takes two straight hours to open them all!)

I LOVE that we all wear Xmas Pj’s on Christmas Eve so that we get to lounge around in our festive wear the next morning!

I absolutely LOVE Christmas morning!

This year’s was NO different! We had a wonderful Christmas!

The girls LOVED their gifts…

I went a little overboard!...

We won’t talk about it, but let’s just say the girls had so many gifts to open they were exhausted by the end…

And it wasn’t easy shopping for them this year as Chris banned any toys!

(However, I snuck in a couple for Brooke…SSSSHHHH…don’t tell!)


But we do have LOTS of games to play….


And clothes to wear…

And we even got to go to the Chiefs game!! WOO HOO!


Hope you all had as WONDERFUL and BLESSED of a Christmas as we did!
