I was tagged by my friend Heather to tell you about 6 quirks that I have. Then I'm supposed to tag six more people at the end. So here it goes.

1. When I wake up in the morning, I have to do everything in the same order: breakfast, make lunch, brush my teeth, do my hair, change. If the bathroom's being used when I need it I sit around waiting for it instead of doing something out of order.

2. Clutter & dust don't really bother me but dirty dishes in the sink or water on the bathroom sink make me crazy.

3. I avoid certain streets if I can - Valley View, Lincoln, South, etc because I think they're too busy and take longer. I'd rather go out of my way or take neighborhood streets to avoid them which probably takes as much time or more.

4. I had way more guy friends growing up than I did girls. According to Matt that's incredibly weird so I guess that's a quirk.

5. I'm totally stealing this from Heather but I can rewatch movies and reread good books. I don't get sick of them - as long as there's been a little bit of time inbetween.

6. Half of you will think is quirky and the other half won't. I'd rather pay more money to live in a smaller house here in Southern California than move to have a significantly larger home for less money. I just love it here...

I'm not actually going to tag specifically since I just tagged some people for something else. So if you want.....tag you're it!

Ducks game

On Friday, we took Daniel to his first Ducks game. He already had his outfit, my mom got him a bib, and we bought a beanie when we got there. Plus, we made a sign cuz we're spazzes like that. Everyone around us thought it was super cute and said Daniel was good luck. It was a lot of fun and so far it's been the Ducks only win of the season. I'm thinking that means we need to go to more games...

Face-off Fan Fest

Ok I know that I just updated a few days ago but last night was pretty much the 3rd most awesome day ever. (By the way, if you haven't checked the last post yet you should cuz there's some super cute pictures of Daniel). Anyways, so a friend of my mom's bought season tickets to the Ducks this year and at the beginning of the season they have this whole party thing for the season ticket holders where there are little games, food, and players signing autographs. Well, he didn't really want to go that much so my mom asked us if we wanted to go and so the 3 of us and Lindsay went to go get autographs mostly. We got all decked out in our Ducks gear of course, even Daniel since he has his own little outfit. We needed Teemu Selane's autograph because he is my favorite player and I didn't get him last time, we thought he was going to retire, etc. So we got in line at 5:10, autographs started at 6:30 and we finally got up to the front at 7:45. I was so freaking excited, my heart was pounding, and I acted like a complete spaz. He said hi and asked how old Daniel was and ready.... Teemu Selane touched Daniel's leg. I know, right??? It was pretty much the best night ever right there. But then it gets better. Matt got a Stanley Cup hat and wanted the top line and the goalie to sign it. With Teemu's signature, all he needed was the goalie, Jean-Sebastian Giguere. Autographs were going to end at 8:30 so we booked it up to the top level to get his signature and we ended up being one of the last people to get his autograph. So now Matt had his hat complete. But wait, there's more. Giguere asked if he could hold Daniel. I said sure but I was thinking "HECK YA you can hold my baby!!!" So we have pictures of JS Giguere, one of the top goalies in the NHL holding our baby. Even the other people in line thought it was cool. Also, while Matt stayed in line for Teemu, Lindsay and I went around getting some other people's signatures, like Corey Perry, Ryan Getzlaf, and Sammy Phalsson. Overall, it was a super cool night and I feeling such a rush! I felt like I was all hopped up on Mountain Dew!!! =) So here's the pictures....





Then my mom wanted pictures taken of the grandkiddos so we got those taken today. They turned out really cute.
