Go Dogs!!!
Fresno State Football
Saturday, October 11, 2008 David and I went to David's first Fresno State football game! We loved watching the dogs play. It is everything college football should be. Super loud, tons of color, and people, people, people.It was once again a fun adventure with the Borgeses (anyone beginning to sense a theme here) and Art's buddy Gilbert joined us too (sorry Gil....no pic this time....I promise on the next one). We, of course love the Borgeses. I think we all literally have withdrawls if we go too long without seeing eachother.
We had an awesome time. We visited the beer garden (and the port-a-potties...ugh), ate some yummy tri-tip sandwiches, devoured some awesome funnel cake, Art provided some beverages for all, and we watched a great game. I am amazed everyday at how much we truly enjoy even the simplest things.
On a side note....we ran into a few former Sierra High graduates that really made me smile: Amanda, Traci, and Leah (some of my girlies) came with Christine Barcus to see Annie cheer, Colby (former swimmer) was playing in the band, Annie Bananie was of course cheering, and Ms. Kelly Bean was there somewhere but I only got to see her texts :(..... (until my phone died...boo hoo). But it really is great to be out and about and get to see people you genuinely care about doing well in the world. I love my job!!!!
Moving on, I am particularly fond of the upper left hand picture of this next series. We're a pretty cute little couple huh? I am a lucky, lucky girl (well....he's pretty fortunate too...lol).
Of course, no trip would be complete if Chris and I did not draw attention to ourselves and take our obligatory self portrait. So, here we are....our two gorgeous school psych mugs..... he he he.
And, lastly.....wouldn't you know it..................... :)

Olly olly oxen free Charlie Brown
Oct 4th we took a family outing to the Cobb Ranch's Corn Maze and Pumpkin Patch. We had some serious team work and made our way through the maze like pros. Of course we had to have a little corn tassel fun along the way.
First Trip...Monterey
We finally had the opportunity to get away for the weekend and just have a relaxing time. We decided to head over to see my Kitty Kat and Lawn-Man via "the long way" (aka through Cambria, Big Sur, and Carmel).
It was an awesome opportunity for us to make some great memories and for me to take some wonderful shots.
We stopped every chance we got to take in the scenery and have a little fun. We didn't have time for Hearst Castle (some other time) but we did stop in San Simeon to walk the pier. I know Chaplin was a frequent guest of the Heast's and I can only imagine how often he must have been in that exact place. This makes me endlessly happy.
Back on the road, we headed up through Big Sur. We didn't see beautiful blue skies, but we put the top down anyway and enjoyed the fog!!! :)
We did eventually make it to Marina and had a wonderful evening enjoying the hospitality of Kat and Lani. We ate a phenomenal meal and watched some flix. We truly love being around the Stevens'. I CANNOT wait to meet little Zach Attack!!!!
On Sunday, we took all took a great walk through the woods to the beach. It was super simple and really beautiful. Kat and Lani packed us all a scrumptious lunch and we had a great time.
We finished off the day by heading to Moss Landing for some fresh seafood (Kat's baby cravings) and a last shot at socializing. It was super fantastic. We plan to return soon with David's mom and dad in tow very soon.
