Baby Nephew Update

Here is one of the cutest pics of my baby nephew on Thanksgiving day.

Fantasy Football

This year my brother decided to sign all of us for Fantasy football. I must say that with this came the headache of which player to start, which player should be benched which defense/special team to get. The order of the waiver list is also a headache because the person or persons or even the defense you want someone else may get just because they are higher up than you and therefore gets the person(s) defense special team and then gets more points and wins and improves their record while others settle for what is left and then ends up losing and having the worse record. There are family members who drafts a certain team then completely changes their team around and then has the highest score of all involved. I think that if you draft a team at the beginning of the season that you should not be allowed to make changes unless a player is hurt or has a bye week and then must go back to the original team. Then comes the football games and you are rooting for a certain team to do well and then root against other teams so that your opponent does poorly so that you win. What ever happened to just watching a football game for the fun of it and rooting for the team you like (ie Patriots)?? All I know is that I would rather just watch the football games for fun and not have to worry about how my players or defense is doing. Your life revolves around this fantasy football and wondering how others are doing and hoping doing worse than you are or rooting that they do worse than you. In my opinion one should just watch the games for the fun of it and not have to worry who getting you the most points who should sit down who should start and other stuff. When did it not become just a game called the old pigskin games??

A kid again

Growing up it was always a privilege to watch tv in the parents room. Last night I was watching a show in the family room and mom said that I could finish watching the show in her room. I told her that I could go to my room and she replied "my tv is bigger" how can refuse on that. On another note I took Ginger to get her hair cut and mom picked her up and she looks alot better and not like the shaggy dog from sesame street.

football vs sunburn

On Saturday the eight of us (grandma, cousins, mom, dad, myself, sister and brother-in-law) went up to Waco for the MU Baylor game. We were in the sun throughout the whole game and the temps were in the mid 80's. The whole left side of me (the part that faced the sun) got sunburned bc I wasn't thinking sunscreen in Nov. It was a beautiful day and a positive outcome with MU beating Baylor 31-28. Northwestern also won beating Minnesota 24-17 so dad was pretty happy that both of his schools won today. It is to stay in the 80's through this week. Gotta love November in Texas!! :)
