Condoms

The other day Evan and I went to Walmart to pick up some things and as I'm looking at hand soap I have my back turned to Evan. Bad idea, because when I turn around he's grabbing condoms and pregnancy tests by the handful and throwing them in the cart. I bust up laughing trying to put this stuff back on the shelf and then we're off. Of all the things he could have grabbed.. condoms and pregnancy tests?? It was pretty funny!

Eagles vs Broncos (12-27-09)

Travis is just as big an Eagles fan as his dad so this year for his big present we bought three tickets to an Eagles game and took Travis along. Bill wrapped Trav's ticket in an envelope and then in two other boxes, wrapping each part. So Christmas night Travis starts opening presents and gets stupid little things like long underwear, handwarmers, gloves, etc. The whole time he's looking at us like what is going on?? Then he sees a big gift sitting behind the tree with his name on it. He unwraps the first box, second box, and then pulls out an envelope still wondering what is going on...

When he opened the envelope I'm not really sure that he knew exactly what it was. I don't know if he's ever seen a ticket to an NFL game. So he stands there looking at it and Bill asks "what's today's date?... Dec 25... what's the date on that ticket?... dec 27.... so does that mean we're going to the Eagles vs Broncos game this Sunday??? ...OMG!" He was soo excited!

The game was awesome! Although the car ride (approx 5 hrs) wasn't so much fun. Nothing exciting happened... car didn't break down, although we thought it might not start after the game, just really long drive!

The game was being advertised as Brian Dawkins return to Philly, which was really cool because Dawkins played for the Eagles for the past 13 yrs and a lot of people were pretty upset when he was traded. Eagles fans are known for being a pretty rough crowd so we really didn't know what to expect when Dawkins came out onto the field. Come to find out, there were more Dawkins jerseys (both eagles and broncos) than any other jersey that day. Start of the game, the entire first string Broncos defense gets booed as they're announced then last person to come out is Dawkins and he gets standing ovation- it was really nice to see that the city that often boos their own quarterback gave him standing O because he was an awesome player and he didn't want to be traded.

Eagles started out winning 27-6 then played awful after the half. Broncos ended up tieing the game at 27 and somehow the Eagles managed to pull one out by kicking a field goal in the last few secs of the game.

More Christmas..
