Call it what it is!!

I'm going to be in trouble for this one. If I've talked to you in the past two weeks you've probably already heard this one...

I was changing Chase's diaper and I lift it up to wipe and "it" is pointing straight at me. "Whoa put it down! Don't point your thing at me!"

Brian walks in, "What's going on?"

"He's pointing his thing at me and I don't want to get squirted!"

Brian gets all huffy - "Don't call it a thing, call it what it is! It's a penis!"

Absolutely not. No way. Thing, it, teeny wieny, squirter, but not that.

How bout them Cowboys? (and their stadium?)

Meet the oldest living Dallas Cowboys coach - Jeanette Martin.

She knows the game, the players, the plays, the mistakes, and most of all how she would run things better. So for Christmas I bedazzled the bejesus out of a Cowboys shirt and took her for a tour of the new stadium. Can I just say it was AMAZING!!! We got to see the locker rooms, club boxes, and everything in between. Only bummer - the field was not rolled out - which is only 2 inches thick!

Fun Facts:
The screen alone costs five million dollars more than the entire old stadium.

Each of the African Sepia wood lockers cost nine thousand dollars.



Jerry Jones has a private elevator. Here she is in just one of Jerry's private veiwing areas on the 50-yard line.



The electric bill runs about half a million *per month* during football season. Before the Superbowl they will add 20,000 seats and increase the number of HDTV's from 3000 to 4000. My husband informed me there were flat screens above the urinals. I believe it because you could not look around without seeing 5 or 6. This is one of 6 levels you can access with a party pass.


Yes we got to go inside, no I did not take pictures. Really quick way to feel fat and ugly.



This is the path the team takes when entering the stadium for a game. Fork over enough dough and you can be there! The field is over 5 stories underground and it took 1/3 of the construction time just to dig the hole.


Only thing I did not jump for joy over - the Cotton Bowl will be moving away from the Fairgrounds. But here is the trophy in its new home!

As Granny put it - we knew it would be big, we did not know it was so nice! I have decided when I make it to a game I will go all out and get the Club seats. Brian did the party pass but I want to live it up! Club seats have access to areas that resemble night clubs but be prepared to pay 5 for water/soda and 10 for beer or wine.

Saw 'Em Off!

The other day at church the pastor, Brian and one of my good friends were talking until I walked into the room. I did what any senseible person would and shouted "Are you talking about me?!?!"

Good news - they were not talking about me.
Bad news - they told me what they were talking about.
People think Brian looks like Colt McCoy.
My first thought was "ugh!" my second thought was "does Tricare pay for plastic surgery?"
I am fully aware of Brian's lovable baby face but give me a break, he does not look like that guy.

SO......................Do you see it?

Domestic Diva

I woke up this morning realizing that my life is a complete 180 degrees from where I thought I would be just a few short years ago. Instead of being an awesome career woman I am a stay at home mom. Instead of working on my masters I'm in the Officer Spouse Club. Instead of staying rooted in my hometown I'm an Air Force wife. And I am happier than I've ever been.

Update on my life -
1. Chase is the best little baby. He sleeps all day, all night, and especially in his car seat. He's flexible and mellow and allows me to schedule anything anytime.

2. BUT - he gets fussy anytime I drink milk or eat chocolate. Seriously??? My favorites???

3. Sometimes when the toilet paper is about to run out I use the other bathroom to see what Brian does. Instead of changing it he's been using a roll on the counter for about a week.
4. Chase has met all 6 of his great-grandparents, we weren't sure it was going to happen so we're really blessed.
Meeting Great-Gamma

One of my favorite pictures, yes he sleeps with his arm sticking out.
Nap time with Great-Granny!

Great-Nanny, she'a natural with him.
Great-Grandad Ghandi (story - it's pronounced gan-dee but when I was younger I spelled it like that so I continue to do so.)
Great-Grandad, Brian gets a lot of his personality from him.

5. I watch Real Houswives wayyy too much.

6. I got the "mom haircut" and it's awesome. But sometimes I forget I chopped it off and use three times too much shampoo.

7. Brian was depressed when the Rangers lost. No really. He was. But Chase looked super cute!
