Hail to Thee My Alma Mater, Colorado State...

Can you see Cam?
 (Hint: he is the ram walking in the
CSU logo at the middle of the field)

We're back! And this time it isn't for the Vet Hospital. It took nine and a half years, but I finally made it to my first CSU football game. For that matter, my first college football game ever! Jim treated me to an afternoon without studying, what a great date.

It was a treat! I have never witnessed tail gating before, it was fascinating. I even saw one group of people that had a flower centerpiece to their table. How cute! It's funny to watch people at sporting events, we are such pack animals. Everybody was playing games, eating and having a good time. I honestly can't imagine sitting in a parking lot for that many hours just waiting for a game. But, maybe some day I'll try it out and see if it's all the fun everybody else seems to think it is.

Now, CSU isn't that good, but thankfully we got to see a great game! They won (the good part) and it seemed like all of the action happened at our end of the field... even a hit that projected a player's helmet across the field. The sweet old guy in front of us said it was a "Sports Center Moment," I guess that's good. :) I have to admit, I started having more fun people watching the second part. It was a great date afternoon, even with the sunburn!

Back at home, it was a beautiful weekend. We got to take the boys on two walks... Andre was so pooped from yesterday's walk I had to carry him a bit today. His old little legs just aren't what he wants them to be.

It will be a busy week... lots to do at work and the countdown is on for Taylor's seventh birthday next weekend, we need to order his cupcakes from Buttercream. I hope they have a good special!
