Utah vs Oregon

Since we are die hard Utah fans, we drove all the way to Eugene, Oregon to watch the Utes battle the Ducks. We left from Salt Lake drove to Burley, Idaho to pick up Adam and his wife Genn then continued our 10 hour drive to Portland, Oregon. I had no idea that you can't pump your own gas in Oregon. I thought that was the strangest thing. We headed down to Eugene on Saturday to watch the game and of course it rained the entire time. Although the Utes lost, we still had a great time. We got to see a Oregon fan get peppered sprayed and the people they hire for crowd control, I'm not sure where they find them. Anyways here are some pics from our trip. As you can see we had great seats. Thats right row 5.

This is how Oregon fans decorate their cars. They all those pom poms hanging out the trunk area.





As Doug would say " They have a flaggette"

Oregon's Motto: "Putting Oregon back to work." They weren't kidding

Update

I know I really need to update this, but I have no idea what to put on here. Not much going on these days. We did drive all the way to Oregon to watch the Utes play. Although they lost we still had a great time. Doug's good friend Adam and his wife went with us. While there I got to see my best friend Jenny that now lives in Seattle. Her and her husband drove down to meet us for dinner. Doug is busy with work spending most of his days in Salt Lake. I am looking forward to the holidays cause that means I get to go home to Georgia and see the fam. Well that about all I can think of right now. I'll post some pics from our trip hopefully soon.

Georgia

I went home for 3 weeks and had a blast. I got to be there when my new niece was born, I got to celebrate with Ms Heidi for her 3rd birthday. We went to the beach for a week for the 4th. We all had a great time. Just some pics from my tirp back home. Sorry about the picture overload.

Private or Not Private... That is the question

I need your help. Doug has been hounding me to make our blog private. His reason behind this is not real sure. I dont want to make it private since i see no reason why it should be. We don't have pics of kids on here or ourselves at that. I think its annoying when you find a friends blog, but then can't look at it cause its set to private and you have no way of contacting them. So leave comments and let me know what ya'll think. Should we go private or leave it the way it is? If ain't broke, don't fix it!
