Wedding Day: Video

Wedding Day: Video

One of the best things we did was decide to hire Magic Hour Creative to film our wedding festivities. Here is our wedding video and an additional one minute short video.

"Spur" of the Moment!

So...

Sunday night the San Antonio Spurs won the NBA Finals in a dominating victory over the Miami Heat.  The Finals began with game one on Thursday, June 5, in San Antonio.  Wouldn't it be fun to go to a NBA Finals game?  It's like the Super Bowl of basketball!

We'll the Spurs played game one at 8:00 PM last Thursday night.  Mack woke up at 5:00 AM (in Mississippi!) and bought tickets to the game that morning, so at the "SPUR" of the moment we headed to Texas!

About 8 hours later we arrived at the AT&T Center ready to cheer on the Spurs!  Go Spurs Go!


What an experience.  The Spurs fans are like no other, they love their Spurs.  Here's a quick video that gives you a look at how it all went down!


The Spurs have won four championships already and they would go on to win the series and their 5th Championship!



We got to the arena in plenty of time to see everyone warm up before the big game.

The court and sidelines were like a "Who's Who", lots of famous faces everywhere!

Spurs shirts for everyone!

Game Time!!

We had super AWESOME seats!  We were 13 rows behind the Spurs bench.  What we soon realized is that the first 12 rows behind the Spurs bench are reserved for the players' families!  We were sitting with some VIPs!

Directly in front of us was Marco Belnelli's (#3) family.  We became quick game day friends and high-fived throughout the game.  Three rows in front of us were Tony Parker's parents, mom wearing a completely sequined white cowboy hat!!





The Spurs won game one and the arena erupted with chants of "Beat the Heat"!

As we were going back to the hotel we began to notice that all of the streets were blocked by police.  We soon realized that all the Spurs fans were having an impromptu parade!  People were hanging from their cars, honking horns, waving flags!  It was pure chaos!  And that was just game one!

San Antonio loves the Spurs!




The next day we took a quick tour of downtown San Antonio.  We visited the Alamo. 



And the Riverwalk!  The Riverwalk is beautiful, full of restaurants and shopping.  If you ever go to San Antonio this is were you should spend your time!

 We took a river boat tour, everything was so pretty.  They say they have parades throughout the year for different holidays and events.  And that Christmas is the best, everything is covered in Christmas lights!

I'd love to be at the Riverwalk today!  They're having a Championship Parade, the team are on the boats as the fans line the Riverwalk.  What fun!!


Go Spurs Go!

NOLA Super Bowl!

New Orleans was the place to be last Sunday as they hosted the Super Bowl.  I didn't have tickets to the Super Bowl but I couldn't bare being so close to NOLA and not getting in on the action.  So, Emily and I went off on a fun adventure to see all that NOLA had to offer on the day of the big game.  You may remember, when Emily and I get together, we always have fun (i.e., the Timmy adventures!). 


 New Orleans has to be the best host city of them all!

We started off at the "NFL Fan Experience" in the Convention Center.  And that's exactly what it was, lots of memorabilia and photo opps! 


 The Lombardi Trophy!

49ers v. Falcons

 Think the Harbaugh brothers would let us in for just one snap?!

Lance Moore was there signing autographs.  This was our third time seeing Lance Moore, of course he remembered us! 



 11 time pro-bowler, Derrick Brooks

 Drew Brees - His picture was EVERYWHERE!


 As you can see, we had a fun time!






 After that we walked down to the Riverwalk and Jackson Square.  ESPN was broadcasting live and guess who was out mingling with the fans?  Chris Berman - BOOMER!  "C'mon Man!"

 When we walked up he was signing autographs and had already moved away from the area we were standing.  But we knew we had to get a pic!  So I shouted out "Will you please take a picture with us?!"  For which he replied, "Well, I'm not crazy!", and walked right to us!  


 I was hoping he'd ask me to go on the show, but I think he had plenty of co-anchors covering the Super Bowl. 

Then we walked some more and CBS was broadcasting too!  We saw Greg Gumbel, Shannon Sharpe, Boomer Esiason, and Clay Matthews! 

People were pumped up for the game!


All the street artist were out in full force.  This artist was asking people to sign their name on this collage.


Then we walked to the Super Dome, that walk down Poydras was OUT.OF.CONTROL!  Oceans of people, cheering and dancing in the streets!



I recorded this little video of some of the action.





Since we didn't have tickets to the game we started heading back about game time.  On the way back we passed by "Mannings" restaurant.  This is a newer restaurant in New Orleans, opened by Archie Manning.  Well, we noticed that there was obviously some type of VIP pre-game party happening inside the restaurant.  There were lots of people trying to get a peek inside.

While Emily and I were trying to get the scoop, someone walked up to us and gave us VIP passes to get into the pre-game party!  Yes, that just happened!!


It was a pre-game tailgate, there were many CBS and FOX broadcasters and staff.  And we happened to run into Thomas Morstead, the punter and pro-bowler for the Saints!  We also met him this summer at training camp, and yes, he remember us! 


The restaurant was full of memorabilia from all the Manning QBs.  If you are a fan of the Manning family, you must visit this restaurant. 

Just thought this was funny, at 9:00 AM this sign said $30.00 - At 5:00 PM it now reads $100.

Definitely glad I made the trip, a fun day in NOLA for Super Bowl XLVII!  I think NOLA should host ALL the Super Bowls, just saying.  WHO DAT!
