While everyone else is counting down the days till Christmas.....

While everyone else in the world is counting down the days till Christmas.. My husband is counting down the days till he gets to go to the BCS Championship College football game that his precious Oregon Ducks will be playing in! My husband has been a fan of the Oregon Ducks football team for quite some time now. (Well he is from Oregon.) I remember when I moved with him to Oregon for a few months how crazy people were about these Ducks. Every car window had a sign.. every house had a sign.. and every business had a sign. Jonathon said that their stadium is known as the loudest stadium with the craziest fans... The Oregon Ducks college football team is 11-0 right now. The team they are playing are 12-0. Jonathon said he is super nervous.. and last night he was loosing sleep over it. At one point I asked him why he was still awake and he said he was thinking about what kind of face paint he was going to buy... :) I was like "Are you serious?" He told me that he will need to get decked out in Oregon colors for this game!"

Well anyways Jonathon totally lucked out.. and when we had the Ramsay Family reunion a couple of months ago.. he met one of my dads cousins that lives in Arizona. (The BCS game is going to be played in Glendale AZ. this year.) My dads cousin told Jonathon that if Oregon went to the BCS game he'd sell him tickets for 400.00. They tickets can be sold for A LOT more.. so Jonathon was SO excited.. He even got my dad excited about it.. and now they are both planning on getting these tickets to go. I was wondering why Jonathon kept telling me not to worry about getting him a Birthday, Anniversary, or Christmas present.. And this is why. He said the tickets will be his gift :) Now, I'm a girl.. and I guess I just don't understand.. but I don't think I would ever pay 400.00 dollars just to watch a game.. that I could watch on t.v. Well.. maybe if the Jazz were playing in the championship game!! LOL. I know that some people will have a hard time understanding.. But I'm excited for Jonathon to get to go to this game :) He works really hard and never asks for anything. I'm just happy that he is getting this tickets for a great price :) I know that they could be way more.

I'm also excited because we'll get to go to Arizona when it's freezing cold here in Utah and maybe warm up a bit. The game is on Jan. 10 so hopefully my pregnant butt will make it through the drive there and back.. I don't want to be having Kinleigh in the car or anything.. That would NOT be good.

One thing I'm even more excited about.. is that since Jonathon gets to spend 400.00 on a ticket.. I don't see how he'll have any reason to complain about me getting a new video camera for Christmas!!!! lol. Sometimes I have to use these things to my advantage :) Anyways GO DUCKS!!! My husband probably won't get a lot of sleep until after this game is over.. So I guess I'll have a zombie husband for the next month. He says he is too excited to sleep! Well Happy Birthday, Happy Anniversary, and Merry Christmas babe!! I hope that your Ducks win :)
