Nolan Visits: Last Weekend

Matt and I also took off on Friday when Nolan was here. We drove up on Thursday night to Flagstaff so we could go skiing on Friday. We headed to Snowbowl for some fun in the sun (and cold)!

So not skiing for 10 years really takes a toll on a person. I was not great...

but the views were pretty!

Sunday we headed back to the Phoenix Open to watch the finals. Here is Rickie Fowler putting on 16.

We headed over to a friends' for a Super Bowl party. I brought out the Bronco pride for Matt. Luckily, it turned out well!

Our week was super exhausting, but we made some really great memories! I hope we can do it again soon!! Check back next week, Nolan helped us build an amazing farmhouse table I will show more in my next post!

Nolan Visits: Pro-Am

The Wednesday Nolan was here Matt and I both took the day off so we could go to the Pro-Am at the Phoenix Open. If you haven't heard of this before, it is a golf tournament of famous people/pro-golfers/executives that pay a lot of money to play that takes place during the PGA Tour's stop in Phoenix. It was pretty awesome!

We got there pretty early to make sure we could sit on hole 16 which is a temporary stadium built around a par 3 hole. It is entertaining!!

Here is Brian Urlacher in the blue polo.

And here is Larry Fitzgerald after he sunk his put!

More gorgeous views!

Then we decided to walk around to check out some other holes. We got up close and personal to Justin Upton as he chipped.

Then when the next group came in, one ball landed a couple feet from us. One of the volunteers said it may have been Emmitt Smith's ball!! Sure enough, it was! We talked to Emmitt Smith!!!! It was the coolest thing ever! He was awesome!

Next went the hometown hero, Dierks Bentley!

Rickey Fowler and Dierks Bentley hanging out on the green!

In the background is Phil Mickelson picking up his ball out of the pin.

We had such a fun time watching and chit-chatting with everyone!
That night we headed to the Bird's nest (next to the golf course) for a concert-it was a HUGE day!!

It was also super cold for Phoenix in February!!

First, we heard Dylan Scott. Turns out, I had heard like three of his songs. He was good!!

Then we listened to a DJ for a while as they set up for the main act, Rascal Flatts! It is always fun to hear their music although they were maybe a little bit past their prime. But I do love their music!!

Well that was all for one day. Check back soon for a few more exciting days of our fun!!

Phoenix Hosts the World

Phoenix was the place to be last weekend. We decided we better check out some of the action! Friday night we headed to downtown Phoenix to check out some of the Super Bowl things. Again, didn't bring my camera so these are all courtesy of my phone.

There were all kinds of booths to check out.

It was pretty crazy!

We made it to the mecca of games-The Puppy Bowl!! 

We used to watch this every year!! The field was much smaller than I expected!

Then we headed over to the Tostitos area. They had all kinds of fun games.

And free food!!

We got a little silly.

And enjoyed more free food-Keurig!

It was a pretty cool atmosphere.

Saturday we were up early to head to the Waste Management Phoenix Open golf tournament.

These are terrible pictures, but here is Bubba Watson teeing off.

Here was the winner!

We had such a great time! It was one wild weekend. We have definitely kept it pretty low key since then! Hope you enjoyed all my random pictures today!! Have a great week!
