2008 Fiesta Bowl

So through connections at work and many people from the state of West Virginia not wanting to pay to come out here Daren and I got tickets to the Fiesta Bowl at a deep discount, ie free. The game was so much fun, not as much fun as last years Boise-Okl game but fun nonetheless. I thought Oklahoma would win because of the way they looked at the Big 12 championship game, and how bad WV looked against Pitt.

The game as most of you know was a 48-28 victory for WV but was much more competitive than the score indicates. WV had a ridiculous amount of speed that the Sooners were unable to compete. We kept saying "alright 'neers you need a long, time consuming drive" and then they would run for a 50 yard touchdown.

The endzone seats are great as you can see the holes develop and where the play is being run. It was fun. I have some pictures as well as a couple if videos, one video is of a first-half interception in the end-zone by WV and the other is a TD pass by WV.


The only unfortunate thing was we sat right next to the WV band and that was well loud and you all know about band-geeks. These band-geeks even came equipped with their "i'm in college so I can be a weirdo" as the baton twirler and two of the flag wavers were guys. That was a little weird but hey free tickets are free tickets, and besides there was quite a bit of other...umm...things to look at.

Here are the pictures and I will post the videos to youtube. 1 & 2

New Years Day

This is how the Bosted's of AZ ring in the New Year. As you can see we are a house of party animals. Well at least one of us is.

Insight.com Bowl Game

For the second year in a row, Dan and Daren were in the right place at the right time and were given tickets to the Insight.com bowl game. They took Sariah with them and their tickets were in the endzone, they got some pretty great pictures.

On Jan 2 they will be going to the Fiesta Bowl, (Dan and Daren). Their tickets are in the endzone (again) Pictures to follow.....

Christmas Day

Christmas morning, we aren't very exciting....But Sabrina got her favorite present, Sariah received a digital camera (pictures included), and thanks Gma May for the jammies! After opening presents the girls, Daddy, and Daren watched a movie while mommy went back to bed. (She was up with Savannah most of the night). Hope everyone had a very Merry Christmas.

The Baby

Here are some pics of Savanna looking around and being cute. Tonight is her first Bears game so its a little baptism of fire, hopefully she doesn't get scared or cry. The same to me actually. Anyways we will hopefully get some pics of her in full Bear regalia, enjoying another "Devin for Seven" moment.

Baby Savannah

Naomi woke up at 2:00 am on Saturday, December 1, thinking she had to go potty after rubbing her back and dinking around it was determined that she needed to go to the hospital. I am driving along sitting at the light when I decided to time her contractions and they were at 2 minutes. So things got a little serious. Ten minutes later, contractions still at 2 minutes, and Naomi says I feel the need to push. Things are very serious at this point as we are still 15 minutes from the hospital. I suggest to her that she should not push and then proceed to run stop signs and red lights and get to the hospital in seven minutes.

We get into the Emergency room at 3:31 and proceed, with Naomi in a wheelchair, to run through the halls and up the elevator to the birthing center. We get her in the room and they turn on the machine at 3:36 am, Savannah was born 5 minutes later at 3:41 am. I was looking at Naomi trying to get her to breathe when the Nurse states "baby out". So I missed all of the exciting stuff but this was the first birth that I didn't feel like I was going to throw-up or pass out since there was no time for that kind of stuff.

But enough about that kind of stuff, here are some pictures of hte baby as well as the girls with their new recruit to the union.

Halloween

This past week was Halloween and as a mother I am probably not the best at getting costumes together and taken care of. Thank heavens for Grandma May who made Sariah and Sabrina's costumes and sent a really cute skirt for Sophie. All I had to do was go and but wings for all three and sew feathers on Sariah's (she's an angel).

Someone at Dan's work asked him what his girls were going to be and he told them.....an angel, a fairy princess, and a fairy ballerina. The comment that was made was "so the holy trinity of girl costumes"....Dan was not amused, especially when Daren piped in that he just needed a cheerleader and it would be complete.

Dan went as Bill Belichick...for those of you who have kept up with the football world this year, you will get it.

The day before Halloween we went and got pumpkins for the girls. They decided that they didn't want to carve them. Instead they wanted to paint them, with glitter and pink, purple, and yellow paint. (we really need a boy). Hope everyone had a great halloween.
