The Phoenix Sun's Game

Jordan won tickets at work to the Phoenix Suns/Denver Nuggets game. 

Not only did he win tickets to the game but they gave us tickets to the club annexes that included leather seats and an all you can eat buffet during the first half of the game. 

 

Jordan and I finally went to the eye doctor and both got new glasses.  Here are my new glasses.  I went for a more square shape and brown color.  I can still wear my black frames, so now I have two choices which will be so nice.  (Jordan got glasses as well but would not wear them in the picture.  He is still getting used to wearing them.) 

Jordan and I are not huge basketball fans but we like going to an NBA game every once in awhile.  The Suns game was fun and we really enjoyed the first class treatment we received.  The suns won 100-94.

After the game we had a long trip home.  The city offers free rides on the light rail to the games so we thought we would try it.  It was great to just be able to hop on the light rail after the game and not have to deal with traffic.  We did however have to deal with some questionable people.  (The guy sitting next to us proudly announced that he had just been released from prison and how he couldn't wait to take a shower and eat real food. I will admit it he made me a little nervous.) It seemed to take forever to get to our stop where we had parked our car.  An hour and a half after the game we got home.

I would probably ride the light rail again if we were going to another game. A little longer commute home for convenience and cost.  Its a decent trade off.

We love having the benefits that come from a good job.  Jordan has needed glasses for years and finally with a great health plan we were both able to get new glasses.  And this last week alone Jordan won tickets to the game and a $25 gift card to Barnes and Noble.  It is allowing us to be able to do so much.  We feel so incredibly blessed and are thankful every day for this job.
