Roll Tide? What in the world happened?

OK, I am writing as a dusgruntled Bama fan. Come on, what in the world happened? This game was not played as well as it could have been. I know, I know we have not had the best season. That being said when it comes to the Iron Bowl the entire season is wiped out and both teams come in on an even playing field. I am a little worried that Shula will no longer be the Bama coach come Monday morning. I think this would be a travesty. We have a young team and are in desperate need of a new kicker. I am sorry but Christianson has been nothing but a disappointment all season. Hall and Darby are good players but have been inconsistant throughout this season. I do have to give props to Wilson, he had a pretty good game today. I hate that the Bama seniors have never known that sweet feel of defeating the tigers. I hope that next year, the seniors walk off the field celebrating and telling tuberville and the tigers to shove it!

I sat next door and watched this travesty of a game with an auburn fan and a trader (he used to be a Bama fan and then switched teams when he married into an auburn family). For the most part we were civil. There were a couple of times when thing got a little heated. My fomer roommate and fellow Bama girl was at the game. I was hoping that she would get to celebrate this victory on our turf, but that was not to be.

Next Year we WILL WIN mark my words!!!

I will remain a true Bama fan. So in parting ROLL TIDE!!!!!

Have a great weekend!!!

4 weeks, 5 days to Graduation, Prayers and a House

I was so busy this past week that I forgot to update our blog on Friday. Wednesday will ONE MONTH to graduation!!! I still have a great deal of work to do on both portfolios before the end of the semester. The Gaylord Christmas Season starts this Thursday and Sean will be busy with them every night until our move (with the exception of Thanksgiving week). Sean and I are in the not so fun process of cleaning things out and trying to pack up the apartment. Before I share the house situation, I would like to ask for prayers for another special little boy.

Lane Wilson is a special 5 yr old boy. His parents and the doctors were not so sure that Lane would see the age of 5 and he has continued to surprise everyone. They were told he would not live and he has. They were told he would not walk and he has. He has a sweet and loving dispostition. This morning Sean and I recieved an email that Lane has been admitted to the hospital because he has had a major seizure. I am not sure of all the details at this moment, but please lift up Lane and his family. We met this family while we were members of Two Rivers in Nashville, TN. His father Mike was the youth minister before I left and he is now working with the college students. Mike is going out and sharing his family's story. If you get a chance check out his website. www.mylifespeaks.com

As far as the house goes, there are 2 that we are seriously looking at. The first one is in Hermitage, close to Sean's parents and sister. The other one in the Pennington Bend area over by the church. We are waiting on phone calls right now to see which house we will be moving into. We are praying that by weeks end we will have a house! We have decided to rent for a year and a half before we buy. This will give us some time to save a little more as well as get re-established in Nashville. So... Please pray for us in this endevor that that Lord would open a door for a house for us and that it would be the right house for this time in our life. Please pray that our move back to Nashville would be smooth and that everything would fall into place like we need it to. The bottom line is WE ARE MOVING HOME!!!!

I hope ya'll have a wonderful week!!!
