Fun Football Friday!

My Favorite season EVER has officially kicked-off...FOOTBALL SEASON! :-) I love, love, love football especially high school football! I get butterflies just thinking about it! Mr. Ramirez and I eagerly anticipate the big football edition of the Houston Chronicle that comes out each year which includes this huge layout of the schedules for every single high school in the Houston Metropolitan area...including Galveston, Sugarland and The Woodlands. It is the greatest thing! Even my assistant and friend, Carmen, knows how important this is...she carefully laminated 6 of them for me, Ramirez and several of our coaching friends! Ramirez and I meticulously study it for several hours and come up with our perfect football schedule! We attend different games every Thursday, Friday and Saturday (sometimes two games on Saturdays) of football season and then of course we attend several games a weekend during play-offs! :-) We have the absolute best time checking out the players, the game, school spirit, traditions, dance team, band, cheerleaders, parents, concessions, the stadium, ok....EVERYTHING! I just love the excitement you feel when you enter the stadium...I'm even more enthusiastic when it cools down a bit! :-) So this Friday we went to watch Dickinson High School which is in the district where Ramirez works. His favorite tradition so far is G.F.N.D! It is is written on everything...t-shirts, programs, advertisements...GATOR FIGHT NEVER DIES! He thinks this is so great and says it every chance he gets! The Gators won easily against Angleton so the game wasn't that exciting but it was fun checking out all of the traditions. A perfect Sunday would be to come home from the church house and lay around all day reading the paper and watching football on TV with the one you love! :-) I mean...what more could one want? :-)

This was a super, great weekend...in addition to my #1VBF coming into town, the commencement of football season, and my whole family going to church with me...Vince Young was honored at the University of Texas game on Saturday! :-) UT retired his jersey because he is more than awesome and he and Mack Brown made UT history! :-) WOOOHOOO! I love Vince...I have been following him since his early days at Madison High School and I'm looking forward to great things from him this year...forget the naysayers...I feel like he is going to SHINE in his third year as at Titan! :-)



Today I'm thankful for...
A family who loves me and has a plan if we need to leave for Hurricane Gustav, a great first week of school with all of the kids that I love so much, and a God that I trust completely with His PERFECT plan for my life! :-)

Happiest Moment...going to the church house with Jill, Lianna & Lisha and eating together at Ouisie's Table afterwards. It has been a great day! :-)
