Tis the season


This time of year brings much happiness around our house. It is football season and Mike isn't just a little bit of a football fan- he is pretty obsessed and very knowledgeable and seriously LOVES the game. Because I have accepted this about him and love him in return, I have also become quite the football fan myself. I even have my own Fantasy Football team- I say it is so that I have something to cheer for while watching all the games (yes we get ALL of them) but really it is because I'm so due to win one of these years and I really can't wait to take all these guys' money and rub it in their face that a girl beat them and their teams that hey spend all year researching and crafting- ha.


We are also looking forward to the first Iowa tailgate this weekend that we'll be able to attend this year and it just so happens to be the biggest and best of in-state rivalry games: IOWA VS. IOWA STATE! Mike & I have a special place in our hearts because we first met at a Hawkeye tailgate! We are both Hawkeye alums and therefore we bleed black & gold (the pic above is us tailgating at the Michigan game in 2005) so needless to say we are so excited to beat the 'Clones and vindicate ourselves for that awful performance last year that we don't like to talk about...can't wait!
