This weekend was one that Kyle had been looking forward to for months. He was finally able to see his alma mater, Washington State University Cougars, play football (he hasn't seen them play since he graduated in 2007). We headed up to Tucson bright and early Saturday morning, the weather in Tucson was gorgeous and made for a great game day.
We sat in the visitor section with all the other Coug fans. The game came down to the last play in the last few seconds and the Cougs defeated the Arizona Wildcats 24-17. Our section went ballistic, and the team came over to our section and we all proceeded to sing the fight song. It was awesome! Before the game I was a fan by proxy, now Kyle says I am an official Coug fan haha.

After the game we headed to our hotel to check in and head off to dinner at the Cheesecake Factory. Since we don't have one in El Paso we always have to go when we find one. Kyle ended up getting the s'mores cheesecake for dessert (tell me that doesn't look amazing?!), he was in love haha. We ended up walking around the mall for a while and I found my dress for the battalion ball, eekk! It looks even better on.
We got home yesterday after and spent the rest of the day doing laundry and getting ready for the week.
I also want to take a moment and wish the cutest 7 year old in the world a very Happy Birthday! Our niece Kylie is so special to us and we can't wait to see her soon! We love you sweetpea!
