Crazy Sports Weekend

I don't think my poor husband knew what he was getting into sports-wise when he married me. I went to my first football game when I was eight weeks old. David went to his first game after we were married. He didn't even know what the Heisman was! (I made sure he didn't tell my dad that until after the wedding.)

This weekend has been an awesome sports weekend for us. I really like tennis and have been staying up until the early hours to watch the Australian Open. Friday night we stayed up to watch Serena Williams play Dinara Safina in the women's finals. Unfortunately, we fell asleep and missed it. Fortunately, it was replayed again Saturday and we got to see Serena win.

I set my alarm for 1:30 a.m. this morning to watch the Roger Federer vs. Rafael Nadal men's final. My alarm didn't got off, so I didn't get up until 5:30. Fortunately, the match wasn't over and we got to see the last set and a half. Unfortunately, Federer gave away the match with too many unforced errors and had a minor breakdown after. It was pretty sad. I think Federer is a class act and wish there were more professional athletes like him.

And then tonight we went to a blast of a superbowl party. I didn't get to see much of the game, but had a great time getting to know some of our neighbors better. (Thanks to Josh and Kenna for letting us trash their house.) I don't think I've ever had more fun watching the superbowl. And thank goodness it was a real game and not a blowout.

(And now we're watching a hilarious double episode of The Office - great weekend!)

p.s. We didn't just watch t.v. We also went miniature golfing at Trafalga and out to dinner at Jason's Deli.
