Steelers not on tv...what to do?

Two weeks ago our beloved Steelers were playing Cleveland. Not only is it a bitter divisional rival, but it was also the return of Ben Roethlisberger. We used to just head over to a local bar to watch the game but that was P.C. (pre-Chase).
Don't mind our friend's look of contempt...he is a 49ers fan

We decided that we'd take him to a restaurant/bar and see how he does fully expecting to be gone by half time. We had to get there about an hour early to get a seat in the restaurant area where there is only one section that has a big screen tv. We got there at noon for a 1pm game and to our amazement, Chase made it the whole way through the game without making a peep.

Taking a snooze with Aunt Kellie
He is either showing his intense love for the Steelers at the tender age of 5 months or he is so afraid of his parents during theames that he opted to stay quiet! Either way, we had a great time and he was a huge hit in his Steelers apparel.

Chase's visit to the pumpkin patch

Now that Chase Man has become more interactive, Jeff and I have shared our excitement in taking him places that we secretly are excited to go to. We can't wait for Hershey Park, Disney, and other fun things like that. We decided to kick off our family fun trips with a journey to Ashcombe Farm's pumpkin patch and we learned a few important things on that adventure:

1. Chase likes alpacas
2. Parents must always carry cash, the days of only having an ATM card are gone (we couldn't buy our pumpkins out in the patch because it was a cash only stand, as was the awesome food stand).
3. Hay is messy






Wow! Time Flies

So it's practically been a month since my last post, which I cannot even believe. I know that I feel like I have been very busy but can't seem to pinpoint what I was doing and what I can say I accomplished in that time! I think my brain has officially turned into some congealed sort of mush.

I guess I better get to thinking about what happened in the last month and catch you all (and by you all I mean the 3 or 4 people that even know about this blog) up.
