let the battle begin

As I'm sure you all know by now Blaine is a Denver Nuggets fan and I'm a Utah Jazz fan.  So when I heard that they were playing each other in the first round of the playoffs I was TO'd!  It's the worst to cheer against your husband and it will be even harder to see him be so sad after the Jazz advance to the next round.

Please bless that Team Turnbow will still be a team after the first round of the playoffs. :)

king soopers has faith, do you?

The local grocery store is even jumping on the Nuggets bandwagon. And when King Soopers commits to something they don't mess around...as in predicting the Nuggets to be in the Finals!?! Hilarious! Hopefully the Nuggs will make King Soops proud. Or at least try and win a game at home tonight??

hap-hap-happy birthday!

Poor Blaine doesn't get the blog love he deserves--his birthday was a week ago and I'm just getting around to blogging about it (but don't worry my present makes up for it).

I don't want to speak for Blaine, but since he doesn't blog I suppose I will have to...I think he had a pretty awesome birthday. I managed to take him to TWO playoff Nuggets' games! This was the first time I had been to a playoff game and it was easiliest the most fun I've had all year, with losing my voice and stranger high fives to boot! I think Blaine had a pretty good time too!

sidenote: Yes, I'm cheering for the Nuggs. Only because my beloved Jazz had a short lived playoff life and I've grown to love the Nuggets (how could I not when every single one of their games is watched at my house)!

I love you Blaine! I hope you had a great birthday! Because remember that time I risked my life to go to the shaddy side of town and meet a creepster off of craigslist just for some good Nuggets playoff tickets? :)

Jazz vs. Nuggets

Of course my hair fell in my face right as the picture was being taken. But I wasn't about to ask the crabby security guard for a retake!

There once was a boy who was obsessed with the Denver Nuggets. And there was a girl who had an undying love for the Utah Jazz (even at such places as the United Center and Pepsi Center). All though their preferences in basketball were clearly different they defied the odds and got married! But from that day forward their house would be a battle ground anytime the Jazz played the Nuggets.

On Thursday my mom surprised Blaine with an earlier birthday present...two awesome tickets to the Jazz vs. Nuggets game! While the game was super fun, I'm going to stick to watching the Jazz either at home or in Utah. The Nuggets fans were brutal. I mean, I expected it and had tons of fun. But at one point the whole arena started chanting UTAH SUCKS and I had to get up and represent the UT by pointing to my Jazz shirt. Sadly that Jazz didn't even win!!! :(

I guess Blaine and I are even now. A few years ago we went to a Jazz/Nuggs game in Utah and he too was heckled by the fans. (Denver fans were worse though!)

Thanks mom for a great night, and giving Blaine a birthday gift I could enjoy too!

The Nuggets participated in NBA's Green Week 2009 by wearing green jersey's. We thought that was cool.
