Soccer fun!

To be perfectly honest the past couple of weeks we haven't done a whole lot. We are just trying to enjoy the time that we have to spend with one another. I've been getting Jason caught up on some of my favorite TV shows, i.e. "Psych" and "Lost". Psych he had already seen a few episodes but with Lost we are just in season 1 and episode 21 and I think he is loving it, he does watch quite a few episodes while I'm gone at work. Also, good news, Jason has applied to start classes at Salt Lake Community College and we just signed up for financial aid the other day so hopefully it all works out.


Last night we actually went out to see a Salt Lake Real soccer game. This was Jason's first soccer game so we wanted it to be a good experience...however, Real lost so I hope it didn't ruin it too much for him. We invited Eden to come along with us since she is a big soccer fan so we bought our tickets online and then we took off to Smith's grocery store to find some snacks. There was no way that we were going to pay $4 for a bottle of water that you can purchase at the store for .49 cents. We also grabbed some swedish fish, caramels, and gummy worms. On our way home I remembered that they usually check through your bag when you go through the front gates so we were a little hesitant with bringing everything in. We went back to house to meet up with Eden and I started thinking what we would do if they prevented us from taking our snacks in. Jason was sick earlier this week and had finished off a bag of cough drops and so earlier yesterday morning I went out to grab some more...keep reading, there is a point to this random piece of trivia. We took all of the cough drops out of the bags and started filling the bags up with the candy. We couldn't make it too full because then they would definately be able to tell that there weren't any cough drops in there.
We had to wait in a long line to pick up our tickets and then we looked at the other line to get in which was much longer and Jason found an opening where no one was waiting so we showed them our tickets and they let us through...they didn't even check my purse, but they checked Eden's so it's probably a good thing that we decided to leave our water bottles at home. We got in and found our section and sat down in "our" seats. We actually had good seats and there was a cement block behind us that blocked the sun so there was no worries about getting a sunburn. Right before half time and group came over to us and asked us if we were in our proper seats we told them yes and then we realized we were in the wrong section...That was embarrassing. Oh well, I doubt that we will see them again.
That is Jason's finger in the picture, he wanted it to look like he was scratching Eden's head. I guess that's all that we have for now. Talk to you all later.

Looks like you guys had a fun time. That new stadium of theirs looks really nice and I think this was their first home loss of the season, so you guys are obviously good luck ;)

I have to say that your candy smuggling strategy is borderline brilliant. That would have never occurred to me :)
