March Madness!

For Valentines Day I bought Darren tickets to go see some Sweet 16 games in Phoenix! Something we have both wanted to do for a long time! And it was perfectly scheduled for the weekend of our 17th Anniversary. It was a quick 4 day trip, but we always seem to find plenty of things to stuff in 4 days!

Our tickets included hospitality, at the Verve. A club that overlooked the court, where you can hang out before the game and be fed!! Loved the special treatment!
Thursday we were able to watch two games. Louisville vs. Michigan St., Florida vs. Marquette. Michigan who I was soooo excited to watch, ended up being the slowest game ever! And then to top it off they lost. Darn it!

Rubbed shoulders with some of the rich and famous....Magic Johnson at the Michigan St. game.


Steve Stith at the Verve.


And our very own Rich Marker and Shawn Hartley from our ward!

Aside from shopping, comedy club, and a stop at a casino -- basketball, basketball and more basketball. Is what we did. And I loved every minute of it! When we were not at a game we found the nearest sports bar to watch them. I love this time of year, and loved having the time with just me and my man!

Dan Majerle's Sports bar....

Our plane didn't leave until 8pm Saturday night, we found out the Florida vs. Louisville game was at 1:00! So after our Happy Anniversary Day Couples Massage. We got ready and searched for scalpers! The ONLY way to get tickets from here on out! We were able to get way better seats, with no shipping charge, for a CHEAPER price! Lesson learned!

What a fun little get away.....that should hold us up for another couple of months. :) Happy 17th, baby!
