Andy Roddick

A couple weeks ago we went to see Andy Roddick at the SAP Open Tournament so I could satisfy my tennis obsession again. Here's a link to more action shots..."Megan's Picasa Page"

Not as packed as the U.S. Open but it was still fun.

We sat in the nosebleed section.

We took some video while we were there.

Andy and I doing our John McEnroe impressions.

Crazy eyes (the picture is blurry because I was laughing so hard!).

Go Chargers!

On Sunday we went to see Nate's San Diego Chargers beat the Oakland Raiders in the last game of the regular season. Football, chili cheese dogs, and 45 degree weather...what more could you ask for? Next up...the Chargers play the Tennessee Titans in the first round of the playoffs.

The Coin Toss

My favorite kicker in the NFL...Nate Kaeding.

Merry Christmas, from Eli Manning...

Last year, Nate got me in to watching football and now I am completely addicted to it. Since he grew up in San Diego, he is a huge Chargers fan. I cheer for the Chargers with him but I've also become a huge fan of the Dallas Cowboys. Yes, I've jumped on the bandwagon of their winning season only partly because they have a cute quarterback. Nate even got me a couple Tony Romo football jerseys this year for Christmas. One of our other favorite teams to watch are the New York Giants...not because we're fans but because we have a running joke that every time Eli "Elisha"Manning starts losing he begins to pout incessantly. Everytime we see him we can just picture him saying "GOSH! Why can't I be more like Peyton!" Here is a funny Christmas card that Nate made for me this year that shows some of his best 'GOSH' moments...

Courtside!

Nate has the best job ever! Not only did he sit front row at the most famous Super Bowl in recent history (the one with the Janet Jackson controversy)...now he gets courtside tickets for the Sacramento Kings vs. Miami Heat game in March. The best part is that this time, I get to go! Yay. Now, if only I could convince his company that they need to hire a pharmacist. The only perk I get from Kaiser is the occasional free pen.

Our seats are right next to the Maloofs!

A picture from the last Kings game we went to...almost 4 years ago! We look so young.

It's Christmas Time in the City...

Nate's mom came up for Thanksgiving and we made our annual journey to the city for the Christmas tree lighting in Union Square. The holiday weekend was filled with good food and alot of walking. We even made it over to the Golden Gate for what must have been the least windy day in the history of the bridge!

Did someone say chocolate?!

And you thought your job was hard!

Shouldn't it be more than a misdemeanor to drop a missile off the Golden Gate Bridge?!

Fun at the Emeryville Yacht Harbor...

It was a nice sunset on Sunday so we over to the yacht harbor to walk around and take some pictures. We got some pretty good shots and it gives me the chance to practice my photoshopping...

Nate doing his Leprechaun leap.

American soccer rocks!

Boo!

A grizzly lineup, wouldn't you agree? From left to right:

1) a peculiar fellow my mom carved during her visit last weekend
2) Megan's superhero roots shining through
3) AAAARGGGGHHH!

Our new house...

Nate and I purchased a new house in Marina Bay. It's located on the old Kaiser shipyards from WWII (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Marina_Bay,_Richmond,_California). Thrive! It's not built yet but will be ready in March or April of 2008. It's a great house for us right now because it will cut Nate's work commute by about 10 minutes, it will fit all of our furniture, and it has the perfect laundry room to put the kitty litter box when Nate gets the cat that he's been wanting. I'm hoping that when I get my weenie dog I can teach her to do her number two's in there too :-)

Here's some pictures of the model...

European Holiday

My mom will be vacationing in Europe sometime next year. This is a preview of what her trip might look like:

Photoshop is FUN!

If anyone would like commemorative buttons of our trip to NYC, here ya go:





Remember those word association questions on standardized tests? Here's one for you. Indiana Jones is to the Idol as Nate is to...
