Our First Christmas Tree.....

okay so can't really see the tree, but it's pretty! Okay, so it's actually a little bare, so I think it's more appropriate to say "it has great potential!" haha. But we decided...whether it's lame to anyone else... to do red and black decorations. Actually I decided and more so Jeremy agreed. At first, I didn't think anyone would have any black decorations (a little goth, I know) but I was pleasantly surprised to see WalMart of all places had black ornaments! They truly try to please the masses!

Coach Clark

My brother's team made the playoffs (but unfortunately lost in the 2nd round) so we decided to make the roadtrip to cheer him on. Here is some pictures of us trying to keep entertained during halftime..... So for some reason they were playing "YMCA" and Jeremy tricked my Mom into standing up and doing the motions! Yes, he said "I'll do it, if you do" haha... Sorry Mom!

And here is the enthusiastic coach!!!




I couldn't resist!

A few weeks ago, Jeremy was a groomsmen in one of his good friends weddings. Somehow during the "getting ready" time with the other groomsmen and groom, the boys stumbled across some hats and just couldn't resist the photo-op. Enjoy! They are quite amusing! And no, this were NOT their wedding attire!


Jeremy and his (I think) lifelong buddy Kyle......or at least his "P.I.C."
Jason (groom), Jeremy, and Kyle...



Thanksgiving!!!

As usual, Jeremy and I spent our Thanksgiving at the Cowboys game this year. We were both very THANKFUL that Jerry didn't get the Jonas brothers to sing during halftime again this year- we had enough middle aged women jumping up and down for the Jonas' last year! Daughtry did put on a good show so it was worth it. We were afraid at first that we wouldn't make it to the game. Jeremy was scheduled to work the holiday :( But, after he saw all his patients Thursday morning, we took off to Jerry land!

This year we decided to have a more Turkey Day "appropriate" meal and had turkey legs, broccoli rice casserole, mashed potatoes, AND rolls! Okay so everything was made ahead of time and we just heated it up on the grill, but still I was quite impressed with our effort! Here a few pictures of our celebration:

So we are too cheap to buy paper plates and I didn't want to take anything that would break, so please excuse the cake pans....
MMMM.....turkey leg!

Not really sure what is going on with my hand there!


Halftime entertainment.... side note: we were sitting by a guy from Oakland who literally flew all the way just for the game (why, I don't know!). Anyways, so when they began setting up the stage he says "what is this, the superbowl??" I kindly informed him that Jerry goes all out for Thanksgiving!

It's FINALLY here....

The table that is! After waiting patiently at Alliance Airport for approval (???), the table finally made its' grand entrance into our home! The best part, although the company said we would have to assemble it, the delivery guys put it together...Probably the best birthday present for Jeremy (since he didn't have to do it!) Now to scrub the floors and clean house before the nieces come over to mess it all up! Got to love little kiddos :)

Cowboys!!!

Okay so actually I have had these for months but for some reason the blog didn't want me to post this?!?! Anyways, we have been very fortunate that we have been able to make it to THREE Cowboys games this season (and will be going to more-Thanks Mom and Dad!) But these were from the season opener and for some reason when I tried to add the rest the blog wouldn't update the new pics. So here is just a few to give you a taste of how truly AMAZING the new stadium is! When you first walk up to the stadium, they have an outdoor "lounge" where there is a full service bar, a dj, and couches! I guess Jerry just wanted to make sure everyone is comfy! But our seats are pretty great- mostly because for whatever reason we have an extra 6 inches of foot space compared to other rows and our own concession and bathroom. So ladies.... NO LINE AT THE RESTROOM!! At least that makes me happy (obviously doesn't take much!). I will try to be better about posting...lots of pictures of the house to update on!

Here are the cheerleaders doing their usual pre-game routine...


Yes there is a drum line now...not sure why!





A picture from the HUGE tv!!!



This is George W. and Laura Bush for the coin toss....





Because having the cheerleaders just isn't enough....they had to add "Rhythm and Blues Dancers" (with the drum line).... I wonder when they auditioned if the job description included "will wear space outfits while dancing in a cage"


Roger Staubach....




They were unveiling (sp?) the ring....












Okay so like I said....there are MORE pictures from during the game and the other games, but I just can't get this thing to work. Oh well, next time!

Our Pride and Joy!!!

Okay something about boxers I never knew is that they "prance" or hop around when they get very excited. I had never seen this before and thought I would share! Please ignore Jeremy and me taunting her to make her run around, haha!
