#luxurytenting

We went to Indianapolis 2 weeks ago to do some tailgating, aka #luxurytenting.

a touch of tailgating Saturday morning

It was tenting at its finest. It was also an eye-opener to just how awesome Green Bay fans are compared to.... well.... everyone else.

We got to Indy early Saturday morning, after a car ride of sing-alongs to the Biebs and country music. Saturday night, we went to Rock Bottom Brewery downtown for a meet and greet with some Packer players and personnel... or we tried. There were sooooo many Packer fans that the meet and greet was moved to the basement and you had to have a wristband to get in. However, Packers President Mark Murphy came and mingled thru the crowd, and Jess and I got our picture with him!

Saturday night we set up our tent, grilled up a couple of brats, and sat around the grill before crawling into the luxury tent for some shut eye.


Sunday = game day. Game day = tutu time!

the luxury tent site

After we got all of our luxury tent camp set up, we busted out the tutus and played catch, had a beer pong tournament, played some bag toss, and had a couple dance parties. It was lovely.

tutus!!

it's like that rock was there for me to stand on...

Colts fan bar... title belting outside

For the game... we walked to the JW Marriott that is only a couple blocks from the stadium. It was too dead and boring, so at half time we took a stroll over to the Colts Fan bar downtown, but it was too expensive. We stood outside and watched some more of the game, and then went to Rock Bottom Brewery to finish up the god-awful game.

the bitter end....

 On the walk back, our mood wasn't as joyful. In fact, some jag-weed rent-a-cop told me that I was not crossing the street "nice enough" and that I could be arrested for that. Hello stupid, I'm in the depths of despair, so of course I'm going to be doing a pouty walk back to my car and all the way back to Wisconsin. Fool.

On a side note... I saw this little clip this morning and coughed up bagel bits laughing so hard

I went out for drinks last night with a couple of girls from work. We hit up The Safe House... and since I didn't know the secret password to gain entry, I had to fight off invisible ninjas. WELL, let me tell you, I was in ninja slicing mode, and the girls working there said that was one of the best things they have seen. Booya!

Ben & I are flying to Phoenix tomorrow morning!! Our flight leaves MKE at 7am or something rediculous like that. Then we are driving down to the Tucson area to spend a couple of days with my folks for a fam vaca... with Brianna flying in Sunday night. I plan on catching a lizard and a tan

the cat bit my elbow

We went to Indy for the Packer game... and it was very fun. Minus the complete crap loss. Details on luxury tenting to come...

+++++++

Yesterday, I had to be to work at 7am for inventory, which meant I was physically there ten minutes late and mentally showed up 3 hours into it.

Anywho, while I was at work trying to support our strange little family, Ben was at home watching Prison Break on Netflix. When I got home last night and we were both jumping around the living room in our Matthews jerseys (green and pink, respectively) during a commercial break from the Packers/Texans game, he told me about his day:

" I was laying on the couch, and Nicole came right up to me and so I picked her up and she laid by me on the couch. I put the blanket over her, and she slept by me purring for like 30 minutes! She was so cute! Then, I got off the couch and sat on the floor and she got up and bit my elbow. Then she jumped off the couch and kept biting my elbow and she even bit my hand!  So I bit her head. "

I was laughing during this very serious story he was telling me, and laughing even harder when he found the cat and showed me how he bit her head.

Like I said, strange little family.

Packer tutu

I made Packer tutu's yesterday..... and they are SO GOOD!! I feel like Jess and I will be older, Packer versions of Sophia Grace & Rosie in these glorious tutus


I'm wearing my Packer tutu today while packing up for our little Indy tailgate road trip that starts tomorrow morning


Paris & Nicole have been chasing after me like little fe-lions trying to attack the tutu....

Creepers

In other news, I finally changed my name on my Kohl's charge card. All aboard, we're headed to procrastination station whoot whoot

Blue skies! Orange&Red trees! Crisp air! I love fall

I had to go to Wally World  this morning, & I found the most glorious candy aisle. Ah-mazing, breathtaking, and dangerous....

---------------------

I'm going to go to Indy to tailgate at the Packer game this coming weekend. Ben's going, Jessica is coming, and I think Bart too. We will be busting out "The Luxury Tent" and making a weekend of it. I'm pretty pumped for tailgate crashing in enemy territory
