Just BELIEVE!!

Who would have ever thought the Cardinals would be going to the Superbowl... oh that would be Mike and I. Every September Mike and I think "this is going to be our year..." and of course MANY people disagreed with us. I am just one of those realists that do believe things like this can happen. What a game, we have really enjoyed this season for several reasons, one is of course that WE ARE awesome and going to the Superbowl, but also we have really been able to go to these games and enjoy ourselves. In the past we would usually miss a few games due to childcare issues (8 hour events can be a little taxing on the family (thank you to those who helped out!)..... but this year we have really tried to commit to our time together and with our friends. It has been so great having our buddies Keri and Jason with us this year (boy did they pick the year to get season tickets:)! We have also thoroughly enjoyed our tailgating with Adam and various other friends who have joined us.

Here we are getting ready to leave for the big game and yes I have flags on my car, a poster and magnetic strip on the back of the car. Mike put a stop to the excitement when I brought out the shoe polish.. ha ha! Who cares, how many times do you go to the Superbowl?!!?
So today... we have a new president which feels great...as we do need change, something I strongly encourage many of my clients to accept and work on as I am a big proponent of change. And, the Cardinals are going to the Superbowl, keep your fingers crossed that I get a ticket through the lottery system! LIFE IS GOOD!

What a great start to 2009!

Need I say more... when you have been a Cardinals Fan for the last 15 years you can understand my excitment! This is not only great for the fans but the economy as well. We need a boost right now, with these dismall times, this is just the way to do it. Basically this just means more good things to come. Maybe our First Superbowl... who knows, I take it game by game or should I say quarter by quarter.
I have made a few New Years resolutions which I have diligently been working on. One was to take a Bikram Yoga class which I did this past week. I have gone twice now and am really enjoying how I feel and meeting some of the most interesting people.... kind of a freeing experience especially when you go to a studio in Tempe.

Another resolution is to find more quality time with my girls. These past six months have been filled with looking for a new home, moving, getting settled and then celebrating all the holidays (6 parties in the month of December can kind of put you over the edge.. a little).

Here are a few pics of the girls as they are growing so fast, literally right before my eyes. We go take a tour of Tatum's kindergarten this week and I can't believe it!


Tempe Christian Christmas Show, Tatum sang her heart out and Jilly went crying off the stage.
Aspire Gymnastics family show. Again, Tatum performed and Jilly cried for about the first 20 minutes. However, we still enjoyed ourselves.

Needless to say it was a busy ending to 2008 and an exciting start to 2009! Look for me at the NFC championship game!! Go CARDINALS!!
