Ryan is loving hoops

Ryan started his second season of basketball, and after three games they are 3-0!   Ryan is gaining more confidence every game, and seems to be getting the hang of it.  He is the point guard for the team, knows how to use screens, and has this sweet spin move jump shot thing.  Ryan is also playing better defense, but tends to be too agressive and physical - if they kept track of fouls I am sure he would lead the team!  Lacrosse might be a good sport for him when he gets older.   All in all, I am very proud of him!!

Snoozefest


Yes, that one word could be used to describe the Dallas Cowboy's offense, but it can also be a reference to the first ever picture of our furry four-legged friends together on the couch.  Perhaps the sad ending to the Cowboy's season crossed the species boundaries and brought them together for a moment of solidarity.

Hook 'em

Check out my front yard, super-sized Texas spirit! Nothing like a seven foot Bevo to attract negative attention in Colorado.

Tonight's the big night! I fired up the grill, threw on some tuna steaks, and we sat down to watch the game. If you have to ask "which game?", please unsubscribe from my blog and go back to surfing yahoo on your AOL account. Anyway, the game starts great, until Colt gets hurt on the first drive.  Ugh.   Then the defense gives up two touchdowns, and to make matters worse the anemic offense tries a bonehead shovel pass that turns into a pick-6.  24-6 at the half.  The tide was rolling.   But I have to take off my hat to the true freshman Gilbert, who despite being in a bad situation, helped the Horns score 15 straight points to make it a game.
