Saturday was the 2008 Iowa Spring Game in Iowa City. A time for friends to gather, practice their tailgating skills, and cheer for football. It was a semi-warm and damp day. I joined the gathering in one of the lots behind the rec building around 10am. How lovely to be able to find a free [...]

Saturday was ripe with blogging fodder and I need to share this before I forget it.
After the final rec show of the season, the members of the Hawkeye Marching Band were taking photos with their friends, their sections, their families, ect, before heading out to their last pre-game. It brought back memories of my not-so-long [...]

My blog posting is starting to wane. I’ve got this giant post written in my head, it even has a clever title of Cats, Cars, and Crowe, but I just can’t seem to get it out tonight.
Instead, I suggest you listen to the new John Mayer song, ‘Say‘, because its awesome.
Or look at my [...]

Iowa beat Minnesota today and welcomed home Floyd of Rosedale to his proper home. I am just now warming up from the day. My mom was sick :( and didn’t make it to the game today so I sat with Doogie & Colleen who were making their return to tailgating and game-attending, post-baby. Fun times [...]

As I was getting ready to head out for my girls day of shopping in Des Moines, I had ESPN on. First the college recap show and then the NFL preview show. What I thought was cool enough to share that during the NFL show, the names I kept hearing mentioned over and over were [...]

Another Big Ten Football weekend
November 3rd, 2007 · No Comments
The Hawkeyes managed to beat Northwestern at Evanston this afternoon. No minor feat considering it was Northwestern and things generally end badly there as well as the fact that we played as bad, or even worse, than we did in the first quarter last week. Thankfully, we pulled it together and got some great interceptions [...]

2007 Iowa Homecoming Weekend photos

Clicky on the photo for all the not-that incriminating evidence from the past weekend.
I posted pictures in less than a week! Be shocked and amazed!
And then blame my camera that is getting dicey these days, so I didn’t take as many pictures as I might have in the past.

Josh and BC on my couch at the end of the homecoming weekend.
More pictures tomorrow after I’ve slept.
And someone needs to send me copies of my pictures with Brandon Routh!

My birthday weekend
October 18th, 2006 · No Comments
I just sat here for ten minutes trying to come up with some clever title for this post to no avail. And I wonder why I don’t get more important things accomplished…
Am I digressing if I haven’t even said anything yet?
So the weekend. Yeah. Ok, Friday after work I made the always exciting drive over [...]
