Perfect Season... 10-0!!!

Geez... It's been almost a week again since I've last posted! A lot has happened since... So, here it goes...

Friday night, the Trojans beat Wolfson High 33-0!!! So, Kevin and his team are advancing to the State Regional Semi-Finals in Milton, FL. Unfortunately, Rob and I will not be going... We simply didn't want to drive 3 hours there and 3 hours back! Also, we've already committed that we're going to this week's Downtown Getdown that night with our friends. Hopefully, the Trojans win again, so they can go on to the Regional Finals here in Tally next week. In which case we may be having another deja vu as Lincoln may be playing Pace High School here... Hmmm... Can't wait!

Saturday was terrible! I mean, the tailgate party was great as usual... It was the game that was so unbearable to watch! It was the lowest point of our season... No, scratch that... It was the lowest point of Bobby Bowden's career!!! That game was the last string that was holding off our Offensive Coordinator's resignation--Jeff Bowden (who happens to be Bobby's son). For years now, EVERYBODY--from the students to the faculty to the alumni and especially the Boosters--were calling for J.B. to step down! And now, it's finally happening! It's weird though... Rob said to me last night "You know, we've always wanted Jeff to quit for the longest time and now that he really did quit, I feel really bad for him!" Well, my husband's not entirely alone, but I think, this is a new start for the 'Noles... Since Jeff Bowden was hired as the Offensive Coordinator in 2001, you can definitely see a change--of gradual disappointments and such... There is a stark pattern from 2001-2006 in the Seminole dynasty... If you're a college football fanatic, I'm sure you know what I'm talking about!!! Anyways, only time will tell if this is such a good move!

On Sunday, Rob and I went Christmas crazy!!! Haha!!! Ok, that's a stretch... Rob's probably reading this and saying... "WHAT??? You mean, YOU WENT Christmas crazy!!!"... Alright, so I did!!! I spent way too much money on Christmas decors, but it was all worth-it!!! So, we're ALMOST done decorating for Christmas... (Yeah, Rob, I'm NOT DONE yet and you know that so don't even act surprised!!! LOL)... We're almost finished with the inside... We just need a few touches here and there, i.e. we haven't bought our nativity scene yet... We do have our Christmas tree up and our fireplace is all trimmed up. I'm going to have to post pictures next time! I just absolutely LOVE our tree... So, we went with the artificial one, which I'm glad we did, because it was a pain in the butt to assemble... how much more putting up a real tree would be??? So, we now have a 10-foot tree sitting in our living room!!! On the other hand, the outside is BARE! We're waiting until after Thanksgiving to do that... We're mainly saving all of the fun for my sister... Kathryn said she wanted to put the lights up and stuff, so Kat, if you're reading this, you can come anytime and put the lights up on our front porch and trees!

Well, Monday night was awesome!!! The Catfish won (thus, the title of this post!!!) They ended their season with a huge bang, with their most challenging game thus far... They were losing by 6 runs and ended up winning, thanks to my husband's triple in the fourth or fifth inning (???)--which became the turning point of the game! After the game, we all went to BW3's to celebrate! We're having the official championship party at one of Rob's teammate and co-worker--Dan's new home on Dec. 2nd! That should be a lot of fun!

Last night, we had mama and Kevin over for dinner... I made some BBQ Chicken breasts and Potato Casserole... Yes, another one of my recipes! We never have left-overs though... I always make my mom take the left-overs home for papa and JB... lol...Tonight, we're having mom, dad and Spencer over for some Key Lime pie after dinner :-) Tomorrow, I'm taking the whole day off as I take my Oath to pledge allegiance to the United States of America :-) I'll keep you all posted!
