The Life and Times of the Cannodes: CSU's Amazing Season

My original idea? Well, it was to have each CSU game in their own post... then, I realized I was behind... Ok - I will just put them all in one post and break it out by game. Um, we are now in APRIL and I still haven't posted the fall football season. New Plan! Here are a few of my favorite posts from all of the games we had this year with US Davis (Sept 13th), Tulsa (Oct 4th), Utah State (Oct 18th), Wyo (Oct 25th), Hawaii (Nov 8th), New Mexico (Nov 22nd) and last but not least Air Force (Nov 28th)! We also went to a bowl game this year, but .... on second thought; lets not talk about it.

We really lucked out with some warm tailgates this year! It was wonderful weather and always wonderful friends who join us to make our tailgating experience complete!

OK, they weren't "all" warm weather games, but we make the best of it. Ninja Turtle & Minion hats helped!

Some of you ask why we take a 4 hour round trip to come to these games... This next picture tells you Exactly why. Look at the love for each other in their eyes and smiles. They can't get enough of each other. Come to think of it... I am pretty sure we can drive 8 minutes to see these two smile together. They both live in Parker!

One of my favorite things this past year was Karsten's excitement about the games! He LOVES watching the ROTC do push ups each time CSU scores. In fact... he joined them all season long. Believe me, it was so great that everyone in our section was watching Karsten over the ROTC guys after every score!

Sometimes all that cheering really tuckers you out. I will admit... after I took this pic; I might have closed my eyes a second or two as well ~ during halftime of course.

Our last game of the year was located at AFA, Colorado Springs. It was great seeing the game from a different perspective and on a different field. The refs were awful, I lost my voice yelling at their bad calls and we didn't end up winning this game, but I am definitely not sorry we took the trip down south. In fact; I think this drive was A Lot closer to us! Just might become an Air Force fan due to the commute... maybe not! :-)

The game might not have been as pretty as desired, but you can't beat this view! #NoFilter

OH! I almost forgot... Here is the Real Reason we spend an ENTIRE DAY in Fort Collins on Game Day!

Bonus time! We also went to a few other sporting events that I might as well cover in this crazy blog. Erika joined me for a fun Rockies game with my boys. Great time was had by all ~ Plus, Rockies Won!

We also had a great Broncos season (Thank you again for your seats, Arnie and Marilyn!). We really enjoy our view and are entirely grateful that Gma and Gpa Cannode and the boys enjoy the view from our living room. Love Date Day!

Well, why not try to hit every sport in one blog! We also follow a couple of home teams. Some, we are lucky as they come visit Denver (Go Fighting Sioux!) and we get to see them play and others we religiously watch in the comfort of our own home. Either way, here are a few pics of us supporting our other favorite sports teams.
