Let it Snow

Sorry it has been so long since my last post. I just have not had the time to get in here and write anything. As you can see, we received about 10-12 inches of snow on Wednesday and Thursday. When it was snowing so much on Thursday, Little Al would not go outside unless I went with him. He sure is a tough ole dog, yeah right. Once we got outside, he wanted to play with his football, so I took a couple of pictures to show just how much snow there was.

It really has been awhile since I posted anything. Thanksgiving was a good day, although different from usual Thanksgivings. We went to my sister's home in Ada, which is about 3 hours from here. Abbie did very well on the trip. We stopped off in Moore at Amber's sister's before going on to Ada. Everyone loves to play with Abbie and she is most at home with ALL of the attention on her. My sister had chicken and noodles, green bean casserole, and pumpkin pie made for us. I was very impressed, it is different to see my sister in the role of host on Thanksgiving. I know that Grandma was proud of her, too. We gave Jami a picture of Abbie that she had asked for and I think she really liked it. I messed with stereo stuff with Scott, and mom messed with Abbie. Dad had to work, and we missed him, but otherwise it was a good day. It was good to see Jami's home. They have put a great deal of time, energy and money into it and it really looks great. Unfortunately, I did not take the camera, so there are no pictures even though there were some definite photo opportunities. Abbie warmed up to Scott and even reached to grab his hand as they walked outside. Scott warmed to her, too, he will be a great daddy (as if I am an authority). Thankfully, Abbie was asleep by the time we found our way out of Ada and she slept most of the way home. Al had been by himself all day and was very happy for us to be home. I had to work the next day, but I did get to see Texas lose to A&M. That was very satisfying. I had to work on Saturday, too. I decided to tape the Bedlam game and not listen to the radio so I could watch when I got off. I did not hear anything about the game until 20 minutes before leaving work. A guy came in and said "How 'bout them Sooners?" I told him I did not listen and was going home to watch. His reply was, "Oh, then I won't tell you the score, but you will be happy with the outcome!" I was not happy with him. Anyway, we did win and are playing Nebraska tonight for the Big 12 championship. I had an offer to get tickets about 3 weeks ago. At first, I wished I had gotten the tickets, but now that I see the weather I am thankful we will be watching in the warmth at home. I will try to post more soon, but I am going to watch some football now. BOOMER SOONER!
