labor day weekend - halfway point

i love long weekends. it's so nice for it to be 3:30pm and only half way through it.

woo-hoo! what a fun time to be in norman...the first game of the season is always so exciting, and it doesn't hurt to see your team come out and play like we did yesterday. we looked good and i can't wait for next week, a chance to play miami is always fun.

the kids always make the trek

good shot by me, huh?

sooner schooner takes the field!

thanks again to "the other" jay and katie for the help with the tix!

today we got up and headed to my brother's church to see my nephew, nathan, get baptized. it was a very meaningful experience to see him (a wild and crazy kiddo) in such an act of obedience as to follow through not only with the decision to become a christian, but to to God's request that we share our new faith with others around us in the act of baptism. i definitely shed a tear, and watching my dad perform the baptism just made it more meaningful.


after we headed to their house, where the norm-anator got some good swim time with the kiddos and some of their friends. pretty fun stuff.

tonight we are headed out with some good friends for a fun night out in dallas, then to the tech vs. smu game tomorrow. i have lived in dallas all these years and this will be my first trip to gerald j. ford stadium. i am looking forward to it! and yes, i am cheering for both teams so that neither my pony friends nor red raider friends can be angry with me. i'll wear red and cheer both ways!
