Texas Tech....Go Red Raiders!

Savannah Grace and Chloe

Savannah Grace, Lilly Claire and Jackson

After the Raiders beat UT last week, we decided we just had to go and visit Uncle Wil this weekend...and go to the football game against OSU. We sometimes make decisions like this on a whim, not really thinking long and hard about the fact that we have a 3-year-old little girl, who only likes "girl stuff"... as well as a 7-month-old. It really doesn't matter that we don't think long and hard about this kind of stuff, because we would have decided to go anyway, that is just the kind of parents we are. All that said, to say, we did travel to Lubbock on Saturday and we did make it to the game, but we left at half time. Savannah Grace was asleep before the first play of the first quarter. Lilly Claire was fine, it was just cold and crowded, and neither of those go over well with a baby that needs to be nursed! Jackson's buddy, Lucas, and his dad went to the game with us, as did Grandfather and Uncle Bert. We got to visit with Uncle Wil, who is a freshman at Tech this year. We are so proud of him! And...Tech beat OSU!

We also got to visit with Uncle Jim (Hootie's brother) and some of his family. Joan (Jen's 2nd cousin) is always a riot with all of her kids! Savannah Grace and Chloe (Savannah Grace's 4th cousin??) are so precious together! Both times we have been to Lubbock this year, that family is SO welcoming and hospitable. They offer a true sense of family...I haven't seen them is probably 25 years, and it seems that we've known eachother forever.
