Christmas Card preview...

Okay... in September my dear friend Tina came out to take our pictures...
She rocks in case you hadn't already heard. She not only is a FABULOUS photgrapher... she is like the most amazing person you could meet. I am lucky she is my friend... she inspires such creativity. I can't wait to see what our Christmas card will look like. For now I will leave you with this... a preview of one of our family shots.

Is it too much for me to say that I am SO thankful for my amazing family?
Love 'em, Love 'em, Love 'em.

Fright Night... USC vs. OREGON

Well... it has been a week but I really can't go without a post to document the BEST game that I have ever attended at Autzen! The atmosphere was something out of a movie... for real! They dubbed the game as a black out... espn gameday was there... it was the largest attendance ever... and of course you know the final score... WE CREAMED USC!!!

I feel SO blessed that Josh and I both love sports... especially OREGON sports. But you know what the really cool thing is? It really doesn't matter what the final score is... because it is always JUST A GAME! It is fun in the moment and something we enjoy doing together and with our family... but it is just a game, one you can win just as easily as you can lose. I laugh sometimes because people think that we live or die by whether Oregon wins or loses... Do I love it if they win... YES!!! do I care if they lose... NO...(okay I admit... for a few minutes I do care!) I just am reminded that it is just a game and that my family & my God are so much more important to me than anything else.
That said ... here is my favorite photo from this most fabulous evening...
