... And then she turns 7!

So, as promised, here are the pictures from Kevin's game against Leon High last Thursday...


The Lincoln Trojans getting in line to shake the Leon Lions' hands after the Trojans won Thursday night at Gene Cox Stadium.


Tradition --> The Trojans take their helmets off after the game, stopping in front of the marching band section and paying respect to Lincoln High as the band plays our Alma Mater song.


They, then, head to the end zone where one of the players leads the ending prayer and Coach Rice gives his final pep talk.

Kevin with his #1 fan... GO Trojans!!!

My god-daughter Rachel had her 7th Birthday party last Saturday... Ok, I'm such a bad god-mother, because I thought she was turning 6... But seriously, though, she is growing so fast... way too fast!!! I can still remember her crawling everywhere in her diaper... and when she first met Rob (when she was about a year and a half old), she was so scared to even get close to him... and now, she and her sister cannot get enough of Rob!
I can't believe she's 7 already... and before you know it, we'll be planning her Sweet 16... haha! She was so exhausted by the end of the night that she ended up sleeping on Rob's lap :-)



The men in my life... Ok, they all look nasty and sweaty because they just got done playing football... Oh, and what the heck is my dad doing here??? Is he giving my under-aged brother a beer? Haha!

It was so good to see them again last weekend... and we did a lot of catching up! Mainly about tita Edith's new job... She now works for the state of Florida, just like me. She's a RN for the Florida Department of Health and she's in charge of several elementary schools in Leon County. I'm so glad she loves her job, because that's really important and we kept talking about how awesome the benefits are for State Employees! Because of her new job, my brothers and sister are taking turns watching the kids after school... which kinda made me sad (jealous actually) because I can't put my two cents in since their mom and I pretty much have the same work hours... I miss baby-sitting those kids! Well, maybe Rob and I can "borrow" them for the weekend or something... we'll see! But I know, one thing's for sure... we're taking them trick or treating on Halloween around their neighborhood like we do every year!

Yesterday, we did our usual chores and some grocery shopping... Last night, we had dinner at Panera and then watched The Texas Chainsaw Massacre: The Beginning. We were supposed to go with JB, but he backed out. Anyways, that movie was so scary! It was too much gore this time though... and regardless of what the critics say, I liked it! Rob kept saying that I was going to have nightmares, but I didn't, thank God... We also wanted to see the Departed with Leo DiCaprio and Matt Damon, but we'll have to wait until Friday night or Saturday night to watch it.

So, it looks like a pretty slow week for us, well outside of work, that is! I'm helping Michael with his fundraiser for Trinity Catholic School... They're selling pies, cookie doughs, and cinnamon rolls--to be delivered by Thanksgiving! So far, I have a couple of orders down :-) Rob's got a ball game on Thursday at 9 PM, and Kevin has a game against Mosley in Panama City on Thursday too. We're having a football party at my in-laws on Saturday -- FSU vs. Duke at 1 PM on Pay Per View! So, it's going to be a good week... not too hectic, yet not too boring!
