TCU or bust....

Colleges.....here we come!!!

Cody and I made our first college visit this past weekend.

First stop....TCU

What a great school and beautiful campus.

We spent Saturday driving around looking at everything.

In the afternoon Cody headed to some tailgating parties and off to the TCU vs. NAVY football game.

Sunday morning woke up and visited the school book store for the 3rd time. Then we headed to our scheduled tour. What a great tour. We got to see some of the new buildings, the library, cafeteria, finance building, church and the most important of them all .....the inside of a dorm.

I would say it was a great visit.

Now, were off to the next college stop, TEXAS A & M.....

Finley loves his cigar

Finely....

This dog as more personality than some people!!!!

He walks around like he owns the place and he looks like a little old man.

We gave him a new chew stick and this is how he walked around the house...

It looks like he's got a cigar in his mouth....

He kept it in is mouth all day and had it to the side , like he was smoking...

This is one funny pup.

Happy 13th Birthday....Connor

Happy 13th Birthday Connor.

We had this bat made for Connor when we went to Cooperstown this summer.

Dinner at Benehannas....yummy

Happy Birthday Connor.

We were so blesses when you came into our lives.

Theres a new teenage driver in the house....

Dear Lord,

Please give me the strength to deal with another teenage diver in the house. Please help lower the cost on insurance for teenage boy drivers. Please give me a steering wheel and break on the passenger side of the vehicle.

P.S. most important, please watch over my baby while he is driving.

Connors FIRST MIDDLE SCHHOL FOOTBALL GAME

Connor played in his first middle school football game!!!

We had to start our first game off with a run through banner!!

(which I made) for my first one I think it turned out pretty good and the

most important thing is the boys got a kick out of it.

Is he not the most handsome football player ever...

and he rocked that #5...

<<<#5 never looked so good>>>

He played receiver, quarterback, safety and cornerback

Not that I'm bias or anything but I'd say he rocked that football field!!!

Connor in action!!!!

He did make the first tackle of the game!!

Mr. TOUGH GUY

Connor getting the plays!!!

He had is family, grammie, pops and friends there to cheer him on the VICTORY!!!

The Panthers won 36-22....I'd say they put a spanking on that team....

WAY TO GO......PANTHERS

UT GAME

UT GAME

I took Cody and his friends Connor and Logan to the UT football game.

I was so excited to go since we only have 4 season tickets and with 3 boys hip mom is the first one left out....so when they needed me to take them I jumped on that.

We had a blast. We got there and enjoyed sitting in the INZONE club before the game and boys really enjoyed checking out the UT cheerleaders

Here are the LONGHORN fans in their seats, enjoying the game!

HOOK EM' HORNS

Here's where all the fun really started.

The boys brought a vuvuzela (which means really loud and annoying horn)

on the way out of the stadium they were blowing it at the fans having a good ole time...

all the fans got a kick out of it.

While we were at a light, they blow it out the window and the car next to us had their window down....lets just say it scared the $#*! out of them.

The UT fans in the car next to us called us mother F-ers....and we all laughed.

We sat there for about a minute when all of the sudden we hear this bang...

My first thought was holy crap I just hit someone or someone just hit us...

OH NO...we finally see it....

the boys in the car next to us...threw a sausage on the hood of my car.

Yes you heard me right a .....SAUSAGE!!!

It must have been leftover from their pre-game BBQ.

And heres the evidence......

We got sausaged...

It really was quite FUNNY....

We laughed the whole way home!!!

UT + vuvuzela + sausage= one fun night

I'm in LOVE...and I'm not talking about hubby

I'm in LOVE....

and I'm not talking about hubby...

shhhhhh...don't tell him!!!!

Hubby has had it with me. He has found out my secret!!!

He's has caught me in the act:

1. on the sofa with "it" sitting in my lap

2. way to busy with "it" to cook dinner

3. I'm always holding "it"

4. I'm always talking about "it"

5. I have to hide "it" from the kids

6.I have even slipped a "rubber case" on "it"

7. I've got lessons so I know all the ways to use "it"

8. I'm up late at night with "it"

9. I always talk about how easy "it" is.

10. and worse of all, he caught me in bed with "it"

I know I'm having an affair with "it"

"it" is so hot, and I love "it".....

Cody's Football room

Cody's girlfriend Morgan came over this morning while he was at his football breakfast and she decorated his room....

Cody came home and was so surprised!!!

I think it must have worked because he got in for some great plays and his team won!!!

GO RATTLERS!!!!

Football Injury

It's official......we have a football injury.

Kyle broke his thumb during football practice on Wednesday. After the trainer looked at it again on Thursday he said we need to get x-rays. They sent us over to the Spurs Sports Clinic Thursday morning. After taking x-rays its official. Kyle has a broken thumb.

He is out for 4-6 weeks!!!!

Since this is our 5th broken bone in 22 months, I'm just rolling with the punches.

I guess this is one of the perks of being the mom of BOYZ!!!!!!

Love my boyz

Welcome to Football Season!!!!

Just got a phone call from the trainer at Reagan telling us that he thinks Kyle has broken his finger and he will need to get an x-ray....

The good thing is they set this up for us so I am just waiting to hear what time I have to take him!

I guess this is part of having 3 boys that all play football.

I will keep you posted on the outcome....

GO RATTLERS GO!!!!!
