Aggie Fans, Look Away

Anyone married knows compromise is necessary for a happy, healthy marriage (unless of course your spouse is perfect...mine attended Texas Tech, so clearly not the case here ;) ).  Of course, I'm only kidding (mostly); we support each others teams EXCEPT when they play each other, obviously.  My husband, sister, multiple brother/sister-in-laws attended Texas Tech so it, too, is a part of our family life.  Brynlynn's Aunt Tanlee made sure her little niece will be dressed for the game next weekend in Lubbock.  







Her reaction after I told her what her onsie said.








In the end, at least she's not wearing that ugly, burnt orange. Whoop!

HAHAHA!! I LOVE the last photo and your comment! SOO Funny!! So this Saturday should be fun - A&M playing Tech and all :) and I totally feel your pain, as you know, my sister and her husband both went to Texas Tech!!

thanks! ...& I know-I hope A&M can finish out the game this week. You guys should go to Lubbock so we can meet up! (though, I'm not sure if your family still lives there? ...Amarillo isn't far though :) )

Love it!!! We have the same dilemma in our house... Mark cheers for Tech while I want A&M to win!! Little Mason will have to cheer for both when he's older....unless, of course, an un-named parent (mommy) bribes him with junk food:)

I think that face is really saying, "why did it take you this long to get me in appropriate apparel."

Mothers and Daughters

Just a warning, I am standing on my 'soapbox', so turn back now if you don't want to hear my rant of the day. I have strong opinions, so read at your own risk. :) I just watched this video, Mothers and Daughters , and had to share it. I watched a very disturbing episode of Oprah yesterday (the DVR recorded another episode for some reason). I won't go in to details, but despite all of the discussion I was very upset and surprised by the actions of the mother. She was basically the opposite of what a mother should reflect. She offered no love, support, encouragement and in this particular situation protection for any of her children. I particularly like how Elder Ballard mentions what expectations we as women are presented with today. Pointing out how, women are often made to look silly, and objectified. Our roles, that we are divinely given, are continually undermined . Women seek guidance on how we should look, what we should wear etc. from people that really do...

What's Fabric?

David's Bridal Highly Educated & Well Informed Employee: Thank you for calling DB. How can I help you? Me: Hi, yes I'm trying to order several yards of fabric. DBHE&WIE: I'm sorry, what? I don't understand you? Me: I'm trying to order some fabric. DBHE&WIF: order what? Me: Fabric. F-A-B-R-I-C (yes, I spelled it out for her just mistakenly thinking this would in some way make the communicating proces easier). DBHE&WIE: I don't know what that is. Me: (stunned, but I'm used to working with stupid people on the phone...here's my attempt to 'dumb it down') the stuff the clothes are made of--cotton, taffeta..? DBHE&WIE: Oh! Oh, I don't know...let me transfer you to alterations. Long story short: alterations first language was NOT English. She transferred me back... Hung up--called another location. They're going to call me back tomorrow to let me know. ps Tanlee-you owe me.

9 Months and Counting...

Where have the past 9 months gone??  I keep looking through her pictures/videos from the day she was born and the next weeks that followed...I can't believe how big she's getting.   She is so fun and full of personality.  She has always been an "easy" baby: she's slept through the night since about 3 months, usually follows a (rough) nap schedule , eats all the fruits and veggies that we send her way, she's healthy and generally a happy baby.  Oh, and she's about a 100 on the cuteness scale from 1-10.  She's not afraid to speak her mind; she's VERY vocal.  She is very curious and adventurous; she's crawling, and climbing and standing (unassisted-for a few seconds at least)...this girl doesn't miss a thing!  Every time we have a check-up the Dr. just laughs at how active and curious and vocal she is and says something to the effect of, "she's going to be  fun ."  ...bringing a whole new meaning to the word fun... I can't ...
