AWESOME NEIGHBORS + TEXAS FOOTBALL

= A "Football Station" at Jenn's 28th Birthday Party.


That's right, my new house came fully-loaded with wonderful neighbors. I don't know how I got so lucky, but they're awesome; I've got two above me (Matt & Jenn) and two next-door (Hannah & Evan)...both soon-to-be Mr. and Mrs.'!


Anyways, yesterday was not only Texas' huge rivalry against Oklahoma, but Jenn's 28th birthday party in our backyard, at the same time...Dilemma! No way I was missing the party to watch the game somewhere (since I don't have cable), so I kindly asked Matthew if I could periodically through the afternoon use their television to check the score of the game.


Well, knowing Matt & Jenn for only a few months now I've quickly learned that they know how to entertain and throw a party; and my little inquisition turned into a a full-fledged designated "Football Section" in our backyard during Jenn's party:
    (notice their flat-screen tv on the right, mounted to the deck post!)

Is that not AMAZING??

I tell you they're the best. Seriously, Fall weather, Jenn's birthday party, beer in hand and football outside? PERFECT Saturday afternoon.

The only not so perfect thing? Even though ABC all over the nation was televising the TX/OU game, apparently Pennsylvania ABC can do whatever it wants and decided Wisconsin vs. Michigan State would be a better game to air...are you kidding me?...Boo ABC.

BUT even that couldn't ruin a fun time celebrating with sweet friends and neighbors.
