Road Trip!

What do you think of my new blog look? Cool uhhhh!

I am so excited! My 'little' brother, well may be he is not so little is coaching his HS football team tomorrow in the semi-final state championship game! What is ironic about the whole thing is after Milo and I graduated from college we landed in Houston, MN, a town of 1000 in SE Minnesota. It was convenient because Milo worked 40 minutes one way and I was 40 minutes the opposite direction.

After my brother graduated from college (GO LUTHER), he and his wife got their first teaching jobs in the same little town! Houston has never had a successful HS football team in it's history. In fact I think their best record was 5-3. Last year they won the conference and made it 3 games into the play offs. This year they won the conference, are undefeated, and are now in the semi-final game for the state championship AT the METRODOME!

It is most definitely a Hoosier story in the making! hmmm I will have to start thinking on a good actor to play my brother and of course I will ask my sister-in-law who she would like to have play her. AND I am sure that sisters will get a STARRING role...hmmmm may be Diane Lane could play me?

So Madison and I are headed NORTH (hoping NOT to run into any snow) this afternoon to cheer on the Houston Hurricanes early tomorrow morning and to hit this REALLY cool scrapbooking place with my sister-in-law! hmmm football or scrapbooking? OK..football! Kennedy is staying back to stay caught up on school work and Milo is flying back late tonight from Austin, TX.

If they win tomorrow, we are all up for the CHAMPIONSHIP game on November 28th, just a few days shy of my brother's 27th birthday. What a birthday present that would be!

AND NO I didn't get my girls to pose for this pictures in the beautiful fall leaves with their Houston Hurricanes shirts on! Remember, I have a 13 year old and pictures are NOT COOL!

I was just lucky one weekend to catch a few snap shots while in Houston for a FB game, convincing them they could act like they were in a modeling photo shoot! Smart uhhh?

Have a Terrific Thursday! GO HURRICANES!

Check in Friday for pics from the Metrodome!
