This year, Dakota and I joined Trey and Cheyenne at the Cotton Bowl game.
Cheyenne had a good time resting her head on my lap.
We took a few pics before leaving the house to go to the game...
Trey's uncle also went with us.

Trey & I Were Invited to Employee Appreciation Night @Cowboys Stadium AKA AT&T Stadium
Chris and his family invited us to join them at Cowboys Stadium for employee appreciation night.
We were so excited to be there!!!! This was our group!
The field was open for people to walk around and play games. The guys spent a few minutes on the field tossing the ball around before it got too crowded. I'm sure Trey felt like an NFL player, there for a hot minute.
We had one whole side of the stadium to wander about...
We even got an impromptu tour. This is the press area, where the coaches and players talk to the media after the game.
The guys couldn't resist…
Once we were done with that we enjoyed the free food and sat on the 50 yard line and watched Man of Steel. It was a wonderful night!

Cotton Bowl, Best Running Week (since forever), Girls Night & More
Friday, Cheyenne hung out with the boys at Cowboys Stadium. This marks her third year to attend the Cotton Bowl.
They got to the stadium early to watch the pep rally. I think Trey has a video of it, I'll see if I can get it from him and post it, here.
Here's a look back at previous Cotton Bowl Games:
(2011) This was taken outside the house, right before they headed off to the game.
The past two years, she's taken food inside the stadium, but she's getting to the age, where she can't really get away with that.
(2012)
She has a good memory because she asked us if she could take food to the game - like before. Not this year, baby.
Before the game the guys and Chey went to guitar center. A worker gave Chey a pair of drumsticks.What in the world is she suppose to do with those????
While they were out doing their thing. My niece, Dakota and I had a girls night out. Our first stop was In-N-Out Burger. The fries are so-so, but I'm obsessed with the protein style burger. Have you tried it??? Amazingly good and cheap!
Afterwards, we went to the mall and got Dakota's ears pierced. When she got her first ear pierced, she had a delayed reaction. It took her about 15 seconds before she started to cry. After a a minute or so, she stopped crying and she was back to her normal self.
I got my ears pierced when I was older and it didn't hurt. If you had your ears pierced and you were old enough to remember, I'd be curious to know if you remember it being painful.
She hasn't been pulling on her ears, so to her, everything seems the same.
From girls night/In-N-Out talk and now running talk
Good news, this is the first week I reached -- actually I exceeded the 30 mile mark (for the week), since mid-February. That was the week I ran Cowtown! Here's to starting off the year right. Maybe 30 miles can be the new norm. My body feels good. I don't feel like I'm over doing it. I ran 4 miles this morning and I took my time, since I ran 10 miles, yesterday. I think that's the key - just listening to your body. The next few weeks, I'd like to make 10 miles my standard long run distance, at least for a while - until I'm ready to bump it up. Hmmm, it sounds like a good plan, but will it stick?
Oh, I also managed to do some yoga. It feels good to stretch!
When I don't feel like running, I tell myself:
You can go as slow as you want, just run! What do you guys think about this quote? I like it!
These girls are also my motivation. I want to stay strong and healthy for them. I also want them to see that healthy living is an everyday thing, not a "oh, every blue moon I feel like working out," type of thing. Sure it's about fun, but as unsexy as it sounds, it's also about disciple.
Suck it up, buttercup!
Okay, that's enough fitness talk more sweet pictures of my girls.
Hmmm, that's an awkward photo.

My Week in Photos: WSJ Wine Club, Cowboys Opener & More
I joined the Wall Street Journal Wine Club. 15 bottles of wine and a corkscrew wine opener for $99. If you are interested in the club, let me know before you order -- because they have a refer a friend program and I'll save money on my next purchase. Although, I'll probably be set for a year with this much wine, but still -- contact me before you order!
I got a mix of red and white wine bottles. I'll open a bottle next week. I still have a bottle of Riesling in the fridge. Trey is not a wine drinker, so it usually takes me a full week (or more) to consume one bottle. Towards 6 days, the wine tastes kind of flat....
Since I'm still nursing a baby, I only drink a few ounces (a tiny amount), typically after Dakota's last feeding of the night.
Cheyenne has been in Abilene visiting grandparents. I'll meet up with her this afternoon, when I go to Abilene.
I'm so jealous, yesterday Jomi meet Erin at an Abilene park for a play-date. Brianna and Cheyenne picked up, right where they left off. Best Friends Forever!
This week, someone was feeling depressed about the Rangers and decided to make food (cooking therapy??) and bring it to work. Cookies and Mexican food for me because someone was depressed, sucks for them, but yay for me!
Speaking of food -- I'm totally obsessed with Paleo Almond Brownies.
Dakota has the best seat in the house. That's Care Bears, she's watching.
Cowboys Stadium is beautiful

I know how to pick'em
Why do I always pick the worst games to go to? I've gone to 3 Cowboys games and they've lost all 3! I think it's time to never leave my house again. I'm talking about the Cowboys Monday Night Football Game. The Chicago Bears slaughered them. While I'm thinking about it, I'd like to announce how much I dislike Chicago Bear fans. They are rude! They should take some notes, from us Texas folks about manners and good sportsmanship. :)
The only reason, I'm smiling in this photo is because it was a few hours before kick-off. I had no idea -- Romo was going to throw so many interceptions.
Well, at least these people made it fun. Scot and Leah.
Leah, use to watch Cheyenne for me, way back when....
I'm sure Trey has been listening to talk radio all day. I on the other hand, can do without ever hearing about that game, again. It was a train wreck, I'd like to forget about.
Thanks to Trey's mom for watching the girls for us, so we could go out. We appreciate it!
Here's to next week -- I can only hope!

Dallas Cowboys VIP Stadium Tour
One of Trey's co-workers, Chris, works part-time as a tour guide at Cowboys Stadium. We took the VIP tour.
There was a big group who purchased tickets in advance to take the tour, but that group of about 35, never showed up, so it was just us. Talk about VIP.
A few years ago, we went on a tour, but there were several areas that we didn't get to see, like the Cheerleaders Locker Room, the perch where Jerry Jones watches the game, and access to the football field.
A private suite you can lease for $800,000 a year. Say what???
Press Conference Room
Trey had to try on a jersey and pads
Whitten! I think the sandals are a nice touch.
2012 Tour 2009 Tour
Cheyenne loved the pink locker room.
Posing like we are cheerleaders -- The Dallas cheerleaders don't have nothing on us!
I hope we get a chance to go to a game this season.

The Famous Perch, where Jerry Jones hangs out, when he's not in his suite. The perch overlooks the field at the 50 yard line.
Jones has 4 monitors in the room and there is also a place to add more where the windows are located.
He also has this -- it's his own video control board, where he can watch instant replay clips. The video control board has a scrubber knob and everything.
I love this stadium! It's just beautiful.
Here is the Blog Post From August 2009, when we took the tour the first time:
