Catching up on the summer.............

The first weekend in August, Ryan and I went to see Radiohead at Verizon Wireless. I was so excited to have the chance to see them. It was so awesome!!!!


The light show was spectacular. I was in total awe the whole time!!! Our neighbor, Marcus, went with us. We had a great time together!!!
It was a beautiful evening. The place filled up pretty quickly. I'm pretty sure it was a sold out show.

We also got to go to the very first Colts game at Lucas Oil Stadium a couple weeks ago. It was so much fun!!! That place is amazing!!!
They opened the roof part way through the evening. It was cool to watch it open.
The cheerleaders were fun to watch.
I had chills when we were singing the Star Spangled Banner. They spread this enormous flag out across the whole football field.
Even though the game kind of sucked, we had a blast!!! We got to see the third and fourth string quarterbacks play. The fourth string was better at least for that game than the third string.

Ryan has a friend who works for the security company that is contracted through the Colts. He is seriously considering getting a part time job with them. It would be pretty cool for Ryan, but it would mean a lot of weekends without him....but how cool would that be?!?!? His buddy does it part time along with his job at Donaldson's where Ryan works. if this guy can do both, I don't see why Ryan couldn't do it too!!! His buddy said he could get him a job with them. Maybe he'll hang out at the Colts games for the next couple years while I go back to school. Sounds like a decent plan to me.......................

We also went to an Ekoostik Hookah show in Cincinnatti in August. If I have time, I'll post some pics from that before too long.

COLTS WIN!!! COLTS WIN!!!!

Oh yeah Baby!!!!

COLTS WIN!!!! COLTS WIN!!!!!

Did anyone else think they were going to have a heart attack during that game?!?!? It was just insane!!! I couldn't even sit down for most of it.

After that first kick-off return, I thought we'd all be hanging our heads in shame, but boy, was I wrong!!! I think that was probably the most exciting game I've ever watched.

Ryan and I went to hang out with some friends for the game. We had a great time, and I even managed to get through the entire game without getting called in to work. They called me shortly after the game, so I think they were just being nice to me.

We had a pretty small crowd over at Greggie and Tish's house, but it was great company. Even little four month old Finnegan got excited.....every time the Colts did something good, we screamed like a bunch of banshees, and Finnegan would get real excited and scream right along with us. His ten year old sister, Darby did 29 cart wheels after the game....one for every point we scored. Watching her wore me out nearly as much as watching the game...I wish I still had that kind of energy!!!

Anyway, wasn't it awesome to see Tony Dungy holding that trophy?!?! I am so happy for him and our team. I think Tony is such a great guy and an inspiration to everyone. If only more people in the media would have the guts to say "We did it the Lord's way." I was in tears for an hour after the game watching and listening to him. We are very lucky to have him representing our state, and the city of Indianapolis.

Darby giving Uncle Boe some noogies.........He deserves it!!!

Here's the gang....minus myself. Back: Greggie, Finnegan, Tish and Boe Front: Ryan, Darby, Holly, and Russ

Russell and Holly....Aren't they sweet???

Did anyone else notice the strange erotic silhouette that Prince presented to us all during halftime? It seems like we can't get through Super Bowl without some kind of weirdness
