Football Season (HS) is Quickly Coming to a Close

Yes, you read the title right!  the 2011 Football Season for the Mustangs is quickly coming to a close.  They enter into their second-to-last week of games this week.  They play the best team in our district and this team is now either #6 or #7 in the entire Country, I believe.  Yes, they are an awesome team.  Yes, they are always an awesome team.  Yes, they will always be an awesome team, even in those rebuilding years that come.

Do I believe the Mustangs can be an awesome team in the future?  Yes, I do.  Do others in the community need to believe this can happen?  Yes.  Do boosters/parents need to believe this can happen?  Yes.  Do we need people to not move to another area of the district to just go play on another team?  Yes.   Will the mustangs be a better team next year?  I believe they will be.  Do I believe they will have more wins next year?  Yes, I do.

Now, is all of this up to the coaches?  No, it isn't.  It is also up to the players and parents.  Football is such a mental game.  Yes, you need to have players with talent and athleticism.  Yes, you need to have coaches that know how to coach a winning team and know how to mentor, teach, and grow young men.  Yes, you need parents who are supportive of not only their son(s) but also the fellow coaches.  Yes, yes, yes.  All are needed.  Can we have all of this next year?  Yes, I believe we can.

So, as the season starts to end I hope and pray we end on a strong note.  I, unfortunately will miss the entire last week of the season and all of the last games (sub-varsity and varsity); however, I will be thinking of the coaches and players from afar on my business trip.

The good news:  I will have my husband back so soon!  When I return from my business trip the season will be over.  We will finally have weekends again!  We will finally be able to go to church as a couple/family again!  We will finally be able to work on that never-ending to-do list again!  I am so excited for all of these things!  I wish they could go to playoffs this year and would be more than happy to give my husband back for this to happen.  However, playoffs are not in the plan for the Mustangs this year.  Hopefully, next year.

We still have the Aggie football season going!  Whoop!  We also still have the Colts season going, even though we are desperately missing Peyton.  So, keep fighting Colts!  Keep playing hard Aggies!!

We...Finally....

...Got....A........WIN!!!!

Yes, that is right people, the Varsity Mustangs now have a W in their record this year!  I can't tell you how happy I was for this to happen.  Did they play their very best?  No.  Do they still have much work to do?  Yes.  BUT, they got a WIN!!  Lets hope this can continue for this Friday night!

In other news, we are staying busy...

I attend Outbreak, a women's bible study at our church on Monday nights.  It is led by Gari Meacham and she is fabulous and amazing and such a strong, beautiful Christian woman and speaker!  I know God is going to use her in so many different avenues.

I can't seem to get into a cooking groove!  At. All.  Seriously, and I love to cook!  It really doesn't help that my husband's schedule has been changing lately.  Also, sometimes they parents bring them food in what is called a "pasta load."  So, I don't want to cook just for me.

I'm back seeing the chiropractor and the other day my entire body was all kinds of out of whack.  He put me back into place and shouldn't be standing with a slant anymore!  Seriously, my hips were off by about 1-1.5 inches!  I go back today for another adjustment.  I don't think waiting over 3 years to go back was a good idea, but I'm thankful that things aren't worse!  I love medicine that helps your body without having to take any pills that contain synthetics and other stuff that is bad for you!

I love Whole Foods!  We need a Whole Foods in Katy.

I wish we had a Trader Joe's and in Katy!

Freebirds is coming to Katy!!  So. Excited!!!!  Yes!  It's deliciousness I tell ya!

I'm traveling to London for work, for a week, very soon!  I hope I get to sightsee some!  I better get my camera card cleared and ready!  Maybe an extra one too.  I need to go shopping as I have to dress quite dressy for the meetings while there...no not formal, but I mean business professional.  Plus, I need a new travel/work bag and nows the time to get that.  Plus, I need...yeah things I've been putting off so that this trip will be more enjoyable!  Shopping time!!

Thankfully the hotel has free wi-fi so I can Skype with my hubby while gone!  Ahh!  Yay!!  Wait, the time difference will be the pain and the fact that he will still be in football season.  Oh well.  Yep, I'd bring him along if it weren't football season.

Did I mention that I'm going to London, soon!?!  Nope, not excited.  Ha!  One of my top places in Europe to go see.  Paris is #1, but that will be another trip.

My dear, sweet, close friend Kristin had her second baby, Cate!

That's about it for now, friends!  I must run...
