It Squeaks When You Bite It

Last weekend we went to Wisconsin for the Cowboys v. Packers game! David's uncle manages and partially owns the Best Western Bridgewood Resort in Neenah, Wisconsin, and he was able to get us tickets to the game. Lambeau was pretty cool...!
That's Vince Lombardi on the left and Curly Lambeau on the right.
Well, needless to say, the game was terrible, since the Cowboys were 1-6 going in and ended up 1-7 at the end of it. YUCK. Such a terrible, horrible, no good, very bad game.

We did, however, have a very nice visit with David's aunt and uncle! I even had the opportunity to try cheese curds for the first time, and they were quite tasty. David's aunt informed me that when cheese curds are really fresh, they're supposed to squeak when you bite into them. The cheese curds I ate squeaked, so they must have been fresh.

David's mom wanted to buy some Packer memorabilia, so we ventured to the mall one day. David and I took that opportunity to snap a photo with Bucky Badger.
Except for witnessing the absolute slaughter of the Cowboys, our trip to Wisconsin was a lot of fun!

World Series: Game 3

This post is a little bit late, but I wanted to tell you guys about it anyway!

We went to Game 3 of the World Series last weekend (October 30) to see the Rangers play the Giants in the first ever World Series Rangers home game!!! It was so much fun! We sat in the first row of the upper home run porch and had the best view of everything. The energy at the ballpark was unreal and everyone was so excited!
Nolan Ryan threw out the first pitch.
And there was an f-16 flyover at the conclusion of the National Anthem:
Then the Rangers took the field!
The game was so much fun, and what made it even better is that we WON!!!
The Rangers didn't end up winning the World Series, but at least we can say that we were at the only World Series game where the Rangers won! We're so proud of the Rangers and hope to see more good things next season!!
