Fiesta Bowl Bound!

Contributed by Maria Ruiz

Jennifer and I wanted to take the kids somewhere fun this January. We thought about going whitewater rafting but ended up deciding on going to a college football bowl game. Since we did not want to leave Arizona our choices were the Insight Bowl, the Fiesta Bowl, or the National Championship Game. Rather than get mixed up in all the fuss of a championship game, we figured a good way to bring in the New Year would be to watch Connecticut and Oklahoma duke it out in Glendale, AZ. Jennifer thinks that we should take the motor home but I am more apt to want to stay in a Holiday Inn or a Super 8 so that we can save the money for our trip to Las Vegas in March. Neither of us are too partial one way or the other about who should win but since Latka is our beautiful Husky dog, the kids want Connecticut to win. Before we head out for the game, we really should set our home alarm from BestHomeSecurity.com. My main excitement since getting the Fiesta Bowl tickets in the mail has been the prospect of being able to enjoy some tailgate action with Tim, Joe, and Chad. They are huge Oklahoma fans and have been for the last fifteen years. All in all, I think the trip will be fun.
