A week in the life of the Hansens!

This has been a fun week in Lincoln! Despite the fact that I miss the mountains like CRAZY (thanks to all you friends who have been posting pictures from your fun mountain camping trips online...I live vicariously through you) Rob and have actually managed to have a lot of fun this week! Not like we don't always have fun, of course! ( :

First we went to Rob's baseball game. He was so cute out there playing baseball! I'm sure Rob doesn't appreciate me refering to his sports playing abilities as "cute" but hey, I'm a girl, I'm allowed to use that word! Rob is an excellent baseball player! Unfortunately, this was a tournament game, and since they lost this week, there won't be any more games til spring... oh well! We'll just have to find something else to do on Wednesday nights now!
Up to bat!
He's so handsome! Even when he is all hot and sweaty!!
Every good player needs a good cheer section! That's me!! By the way, it was FREEZING! I was too happy to be mad about the cold, though... the cold weather reminds me of being in the mountains, and that makes me happy!... I'm so pathetic!

On Friday, besides watching BYU slaughter the Aggies, we also went to this SWEET dance concert. Rob's work does some of the advertising and sponsering for the fine arts center in town, so we got free tickets to this modern tap/Irish/Clogging deal. IT WAS SO COOL! So I'm a clogger, and I geek out over things like this... but I'm telling ya, even if you aren't a dancer, you'd think this was awesome!
Yes those are all guys dancing up there, and yes, they were AMAZING! Seriously, they could kick my trash in a dance down.

I know you can't see this picture very well, cause it's really blurry, but this guy is playing guitar AND dancing at the same time. SO COOL!!!

On Saturday morning, Rob and I went to the Haymarket. The Haymarket is in downtown Lincoln, and every Saturday, during the fall, they close off the street and a whole bunch of vendors come in and sell stuff. Its kind of like a mini Portobello Road! Rob's favorite part was sampling everything... he was like a little kid in a candy store!

Notice how big the sky is? Creepy, eh? No mountains to break up the skyline!
While we were out we ate at this FABULOUS downtown pizza parlor! It had a Huskers theme (of course) and I think this is supposed to be Rob's gameday face...
Seriously, I know it doesn't look like much, but this pizza was AWESOME! Probably up there with the best pizza I've ever had in my life.

And just so you don't think that I'm completely unproductive as a law student, I also finished my first major law school assingment today! I was worried earlier this week when I realized there was a page limit of 11. I realized that there was a limit right about the time that I was on the 11th page and not nearly finished yet! No worries, though! I managed to shave 3 pages off the 14 when I was finished! Look at me go! Yay for law school! ( :


AND THEN.... (yes, I told you we had fun this week!) after I finished studying... Rob and I carved pumpkins! We realized that we've been dating/married for 4 Halloweens now and we've never carved pumkins together. We decided to remedy that!

We opted to take our Cougar pride out on the poor defensless pumpkins... I'm not so sure how long they'll last sitting on our porch in Huskerville...

I think it's supposed to be a facemask... what do you think?...
GO COUGARS!!!!
