Friday night’s dinner consisted of a silent auction, live auction, dinner and concert with Stonehoney.
Notable Moment #1 – We get to meet Matt’s singer/song-writer wife Michelle Armstrong who is just as sweet as her hubby Matt. I tell her I have a little fangirl crush on him and she laughs and says she does too. She tells us that they sat with their family and listened to our interview with him on the podcast on the surround sound system because that was his first big interview. Kaitlin and I sort of melted right about then. They also decided to sit at our table and proceeded to make my crush turn into a full blown couple crush on them. Forget Brangelina or TomKat, folks. Matt and Michelle are the real deal. To make it even better, Michelle confesses Matt says he feels like we’re their buddies. And funny enough, I think we really are.
Notable Moment #2 – Someone bidding on an item insists that they want Kyle’s Bahama shirt in order to place their bid and Kyle proceeds to strip himself of said shirt and swing it in circles above his head. He did have a white polo shirt on underneath for the record. HOWEVER, the auctioneer then says Dallas Cowboy Terence Newman has agreed to strip his shirt for a bid to be placed. He strips down to no shirt and then proceeds to hug Kyle’s wife shirtless for the bid. To say there was hooting and hollering at this point is an understatement. Those were probably the craziest moments of the night.
I have to say we saw a presentation of the charity recipient Gridiron Heroes and ask that you please support them if you can. They are doing awesome work for spinal cord injuries.
Notable Moment #3 – Watching Drew Waters “Wade Aikman” and his wife Heather throw down on the dance floor. They were doing some kind of two-step dance that involved a lot of turning and flipping which was impressive and fun to watch.
Notable Moment #4 – Getting a picture with Carrie Underwood and Jessica Simpson’s ex-boyfriend Tony Romo. Oh and also, I think he plays some football 😉 Too bad it’s fuzzy!
Notable Moment #5 – Getting a proper picture with Kyle Chandler
Man, what a way to spend a Friday night!
