It is well known that we are Dodgers Fans...

K and I are both HUGE Dodgers Fans. We have all kinds of memorabilia around the house, clothing, hats, you name it. I even plan to do our first child's nursery in Dodgers. Insane, I know.

Well, the Dodgers are here in Phoenix this weekend playing the Diamondbacks. We went to the game on Friday and K is headed to tonight's game as I type. He came up with this hilarious idea for a shirt. Since the Diamondbacks are known as the D-backs around here, K wanted a shirt that said D-bags. Being the person who likes a challenge, I made him one to wear to the game tonight. I can't wait to hear how many people comment on it. Here he is in his new shirt. We couldn't stop laughing about it.

Lovin' Sugarland's new CD

I can't enough of Sugarland's new CD.


I have been a fan of theirs since day one. I can't pick just one favorite song from the CD, so I have three.

Life in a Northern Town
Come On Get Higher (listening to it as I type)
Already Gone

I highly recommend this CD to everyone. It will get you moving and grooving.

Mickey D's

We finally have a McDonald's in the Copa! With all of the tire drama, I didn't want to cook anything. So we battled the chaos and feasted on stuff that we should NOT be eating. I love their breakfast stuff, so I am super excited about having one here. Sometimes you just need a soft serve cone!

All because of the storm

So by doing the safe thing and pulling off onto the shoulder of the highway, I treated myself to a flat tire. It didn't really go flat until I got home today. I am so thankful that nothing happened while I was driving. I am upset though that I missed my crop night at Jo's. I am sure she understands. It is just so frustrating. So off to the tire place I go tomorrow. Not how I want to spend my Saturday, but at least it is a really good reason to make a trip into town.

Scary drive home

I met up with Jo Lynne tonight to browse IKEA for some furniture for the kids' playroom. We decided to grab dinner at Cracker Barrel and then head home. We noticed that the wind was really blowing outside so we knew a storm was coming. Once the wind died down, we figured we were safe to head home. Boy were we wrong. Once we were on the freeway, the rain came down in buckets. It continued to get worse once we were on the highway. At one point, I had to pull off to the shoulder because I couldn't see the road anymore. This is a road that I travel on every single day, so I am familiar with it. Jo called me and said it was better the further you went. I decided to get back on the road. I don't think I have ever been this scared. I was so close to the windshield that I was fogging it up. I know my knuckles had to be white. The lightning did not stop. I haven't ever seen a storm like this. I was shaking when I walked in the door. I am glad to be safe at home. I don't think I will ever drive in a storm like that ever again.
