ATL

Let me just say this, if there is an Academy Award for expert traveler, Campbell should start writing his acceptance speech.

You see, Michigan made it to the Final Four last weekend and my super fan husband decided to fly down with his buddy for the game on Saturday. They stayed with my sister and cheered on the incredible Wolverines Saturday night.... and we won! Michigan made it to the championship for the first time in years! Obviously, I was bummed that I wasn't there for so many reasons, but it was still such an exciting win!

Rick called me on Sunday morning, with barely a voice at all, and told me Cam and I needed to get on a flight and come down for the championship game. So we did! With two hours notice, I packed us both up, got to the airport (thanks to my dad!) and hopped on another flight with my little man. I was so stressed about the whole thing, but it turned out great. If you remember this post, you can imagine I had severe anxiety about an outburst from Cam and a stranger attacking me about it. But, Campbell was a champ traveler and did an amazing job! We made it to Atlanta without a glitch and the weekend was so fun.

It was basically a Campbell and Michigan love fest. Candy (aka CaCa in Cam language) was so gracious to babysit for us so that Rick and I could attend the game on Monday evening. Though we didn't win the game, they played a tough game and we had a lot of fun!

Thank you again, Rick and Candy, for making the weekend so memorable and fun. 

Because I'm kind of obsessed with iMovie right now, I put together a small video of our Atlanta Adventures. Enjoy!

Day 46: Hockey in Luxury

Rick scored some pretty fancy seats for the Blackhaws/Red Wings game Friday night. He was given four box seats from a client, and we took full advantage of all the perks that came with it. I had never been to a Blackhawks game before, nor had I sat in a luxury box before. Needless to say I was impressed. The box was stocked with booze and food, and the seats were amazing.

Even more, sitting in the box next to us was a former Red Wings player who Rick got to meet. If you know anything about Rick, you know his passion for Detroit sports teams. I don't see Rick get giddy often, but when he came and asked me to take a picture of him with this guy he had a smile on his face similar to the one I used to have when I went to a Backstreet Boys Concert. So cute.
