We May Not Be Important, But We Felt Like It

Well it's no secret that we love The Jazz! It all started with Carson being a super fan and I only said I was a fan by marriage. Then the kids got all excited....people started getting jerseys....season tickets became involved, and then there was nothing I could do. I, yes me, learned not only the starting line-up (which has changed drastically-you suck D Will) but also the entire team. We watch games as a family and 'Santa' brought us all Jazz PJ pants and Ethan may or may not have come home from the hospital in a jazz onesie with a jazz blanket wrapped around him.

I tell that story so you will know why this is awesome! The Jazz do fun things for those who hold season tickets. While we don't actually own the tickets (the company Carson works for does) we do still have the opportunity to take part in the perks-mainly because we're the ones who really appreciate it. So the day before I went into labor we got to go to Energy Solutions Arena for a tour and to have our picture taken at center court with the Jazz logo. We were even able to go into their locker room (it's surprisingly small). We got to sit in the players seats and the girls had fun deciding which chair was D-Will's. It was super fun if you're into that sort of thing. We haven't gotten the picture yet that they took of us (they had a professional photographer) but we got a bunch of our own pictures to document our adventure.

The girls thought this whole thing was pretty cool. Not sure where Siobhan learned to do the bunny ears, but it's pretty funny!

I guess Mr. Will enjoyed himself....its hard to tell with him sometimes.

How many kids can say they slam dunked at Energy solutions? Well two out of three isn't bad. Audrey's scared of heights apparently.

We never could decide which chair was D-Wills, so we just told the girls they each sat in it.

Everyone in front of D-Will's locker room stall.

Me and the girls in the press conference area.

Edit....Note that we are all (aside from Mr. Will) wearing number 8 for D-Will (he still sucks by the way!) aside from Mr. Will who is wearing number 26 for Kyle Korver. Korver doesn't play for the Jazz anymore as he left right along with Boozer to go play for the Bulls after last season (they suck too). Mr. Will has a Williams jersey but it's too small.

This is a picture from when I used my pregnancy to get D-Will's autograph.....another story for another time.
