We are 49ers

Some of us..... and it's not just ME. 
According to Zack, Ruby told him she likes the cowboys just like me.
Bah ha ha ha ha ha! 

Seriously though, I don't really care about any of them.
But I still like to support my faithful husband who adores the 
I first learned of Kevin's true love on our 2nd date, it was on this date that he asked me to come to Denver with him about a month from then to go to the 49ers vs Broncos game. This ended up being about our 7th date and also the weekend we discussed getting married and purchased an engagement ring. 

A few years ago he had a car in which he placed an ENORMOUS vinyl stating his love affair with the 49ers, covering the entire back window of his car. People would drive by our house and slow down to look at the ENORMOUS sticker. We were kind of a landmark. Neighbors would give directions and say "drive past the house with the ENORMOUS 49ers sticker on the car." My cousin once borrowed that car and was kind of harassed because of it. Kevin also received his share of scrutiny from cops, cowboys fans that will not be named, etc etc. 
See April Fools! post . 

I'll admit, I've given him a lot, ok, A TON of crap over the years. The 49ers have had some rough seasons in the past. I've tried however, to be mindful of his faithfulness and show him by buying our children ridiculously ugly things like this.... 

Which reminds me, I need to find that so Ruby can wear it in a year. 

This year the 49ers did really well, I can't tell you stats or anything, but from what I hear, they were impressive. They were one of the final 4 teams to play in the super bowl. Before their final game, in which they lost :( I wanted to make something special for the kids to wear during the game. NFL gear is CRAZY expensive and now I have 2 kids to outfit so I decided to make them some shirts. 



They actually turned out way cooler than I thought they would. Kevin thought I bought them!
Zack is so proud of his shirt and wears it every time it is clean.


You can tell that Ruby isn't really a fan, I really do think she prefers the Cowboys. 
And I really do think that i'll be sleeping on the couch tonight for that comment....

The Auto Show (Zack's Heaven)

I am so behind... 
Back in January Kevin's little brother Jeff came to visit us. I saw a groupon for the car show so I got tickets for the boys to go. Jeffrey and Zack both have a passion for cars. Mustangs in particular. 



Look how cute these two are!!!


They had an area with power wheels for the kids. 
Kevin said for most of the kids it was like bumper cars,
 but Zack actually did really well. 


Mini Van MADNESS! (Don't knock it till you try it!) 
 We cannot wait to get one... 


This boy knows his way around a car.


Of course Mater was there! 



And last but not least. The Ferrari, sadly roped off. We saw a Lamborghini in a parking lot the other day. Zack wasn't very excited about it. I wish I could show the picture I took on my phone of his very un-excited face. He said he doesn't like Lamborghini's, he only liked Mustangs and Ferrari's. On the way home we passed a Ferrari dealership and he said we should go buy one. I told him we would have to sell both grandma's houses and his uncle Adam's house in order to buy one and then asked if he thought that was a good idea. He told me it wasn't and that we should just sell all the bad guys houses instead. That would be a good idea wouldn't it?!
