Football Season Has Begun...

Well it's that time of year again. Our Sundays are filled with football, and I'll have to say, this is only my second year paying any attention to football at all, but I have been sucked in. Last year was quite the experience learning all the rules, all the teams, and going to my first NFL football game (heck I had never been to a college football game and in high school I was too busy cheering behind the line of football players to pay attention to what was going on on the field). With all that under my belt I actually have begun to enjoy the football filled Sundays.

This year we have even formed a fantasy league. The Couples Fantasy Football League of Houston consists of Marc and I, Tim & Kim, Greg & Laurel, and Justin & Jill. We all put a little money down and its made watching the games that much more exciting. We even had a little trophy made so the winner at the end of the season gets bragging rights for a year until we hopefully play again.

Despite all the fun we have watching the games at home the best part of the season will always been going to the games. This year we have made it to two games so far.

The Dallas Cowboys Home Opener - Cowboys v. Bears


And this year we got to see quite the game right here at home. I'll have to say it was a nice change up getting to walk to the football game from home instead of the 4 hour drive we are used to. Not to mention it was a super exciting game that happens only once every 4 years. All around Texas football.

Reliant Stadium - Dallas v. Texans






We plan on making it to a few more games this year and are hoping the Cowboys turn things around. At least I have my fantasy team to root for in the mean time.

Happy Football Season :)
