New Year

Well it is the start of another year. 2008 went by so fast, can't believe how fast time flies as you get older. Of course, had another birthday. No big deal just another day and it is only a number to me. I truly believe you are only as old as you feel. I still feel like i am in my twenties. I think this is good because it helps me keep up with my kids. I have the best family in the world and the best husband. My mother taught me that family will be there for you no matter what and of course I found out the hard way that she was right!!! I also try to instill in my children the same family traditions as I had growing up. I have to say that we have a pretty close bunch. I look forward to the holidays when we all get together. Though we are all aging over the years and things do change, one thing stays the same we all come together because we are a very close family!!! It took awhile for my husband to realize this as well. He was not brought up in such a close nit family. I like to think I have taught him the importance of family and tradition. These will be things that our children will pass on to their children. Like mom said family will always be there no matter what.

Who knows what the new year will have in store for us, but no matter what I know we will all stick together!!

Oklahoma Sooners

I am very sad at the loss of my beloved Oklahoma Sooners. I really thought this would be the year. Now it is the game of will Sam Bradford come back next year or not. We all know by now that Tim Tebow will be playing his Senior year for Florida Gators, lucky us.

I also have to say that I am a huge Denver Broncos fan and they did not fair as well either. We also lost a longtime coach in the process. Where is John Elway when you need him. I was really hoping since Denver was in such a funk this year that my Sooners would make up for it. I was wrong. I have never been so bummed in my life. I keep telling myself, it is just a game. Easier said than done. Even my husband's shoulders are hanging alittle lower.

I do know that there is always next season right. We are starting the season off in style, Oklahoma gets to travel to Texas of all places and play at the new Jerry Jones Stadium as I call it. Facing BYU in the season opener. Once again giving money to the state of Texas. Crazy I know, but I can guarantee you this, I will always be a Sooner fan no matter what!!!

BOOMER SOONER!!
