Christmas 2009 Recap...


Well, Christmas 2009 will also be known as the Blizzard of 2009 in Wichita Falls. Insane. The snow was so so crazy. They had predicted a few inches which I was very excited about, but lets be honest, no one really believed it was going to snow at all. Cut to Christmas Eve morning when I woke up around 9:30am and there was already a couple of inches on the ground. Super exciting. And then...9 hours later...STILL snowing!! I was still completely enamored by it all - watching it, going out and playing in it...fabulous. I forced Keaton to go outside and have a snowball fight with me - very much against his will. Milo absolutely loved the snow, he wanted to play in it all the time. He just sat at the door and watched it come down. Adorable. So a white Christmas was such a fun treat, but I won't lie, but Saturday we were all stir crazy and ready to get out of the house. I was about to go crazy!!

I had a blast being home - got to spend time with Cody, one of my favorite things about Christmas break every year. Was able to see Lindsay while she was in town...been missing her like crazy. It was just a great trip all around. I haven't had a week off of work in months so it was very relaxing. I got so many great presents and I have been enjoying all of them since getting back to Austin.

The weather in Austin is just as miserable as it was in Wichita Falls except with no snow. I would prefer the snow if it was going to be this cold outside.

The National Championship game was last night and the Longhorns just got the short end of the stick. With Colt going out in the first few minutes, all hope was pretty much lost. I thought that Gilbert did a fabulous job, a baby 18 year old coming in and playing his first game in the biggest game of the year...that is lot of pressure. Regardless it was fun to watch it and hang out with people who were also screaming at the TV. Haha.

Tomorrow night is the Cowboys vs. Eagles game, part 2. It is going to be the exact same game that was played last night week and all I can hope is that it is the EXACT same game as last week when we smoked them 24-0. I am so excited about the game and the playoffs, its about time we actually looked like a decent team with a chance!!!
