Oh Christmas Tree...

This year was so much more fun looking for our Christmas tree than last year. Ash was such a tiny little thing and we were pretty much snowed in after we brought her home so it was all on Aaron last year to make Christmas happen. He did an amazing job though! But, we have so far had a great Christmas! We went to get our tree on a sunny, crisp, afternoon. Ash was all bundled up and ready for the adventure! She is pretty much ready for every adventure though!She keeps me more than busy! Rain, Wind, Sun, or Sand...I have a feeling this girl will love me, test me, and be my best friend!

Apple Cup 2009

Well this year has been a huge turn around year for the Dawgs. As most of you know, the last few years have been sad to say the least for the Huskies. BUT...With a new new coach and a healthy team, Husky Stadium was once again thriving and loud as ever. They had huge wins over USC, Arizona, Cal, and (not such a huge win, but a fun win) WSU! It's funny, because when I was in college we were a pretty good football team (Rose Bowl Champs in 2000 and never lost an Applecup), but I only went to the games every once in awhile (when it fit my schedule - I thought I was sooo cool!). I knew most of the players and was so "into" my own softball world I didn't really care that much and didn't think any of it was a big deal. Now, I love it! I think I have become a bigger Husky Fan today then I ever was! My mom and I purchased season tickets about 5 years ago and absolutely love our fall afternoons in the U-district! Where else can you tailgate on a Yacht on Lake Washington?!

My mom and I, and my good friend Stefanie had a great time at the Applecup. Check it out...
