I have been counting down to this weekend for a year now... the OU vs Texas football game!!! Its so much fun to go to down and experience the great pride that each university has in themselves.. of course the sooners are the BETTER choice!!! The best part of the fair (not counting the sooner victory) is the corn dogs... WOW they are the best thing on earth.. I think its God's way of letting me glimpse into what food will taste like in heaven :) I am very excited for the game and will totally be posting a response to the game asap afterwards...
this past weekend I went to stillwater to hang out with many of my friends and to watch the high school cross country meet hosted by OSU... did I mention that all that icky orange makes me sick?? well it does... anyways.. it was a great weekend and my girls ran so good... I can't wait to see them run again!!! that evening I went to watch the cowboys play the a & m aggies... I felt so out of place with all the crazy waving of the wheat and orange power.. I didn't cheer for either team because until after november 8 for a & m and nov 29 for the cowboys.. they are the enemy... I wore my sooner bracelet with pride and many people in the donor section at the OSU game looked at me in disgust.. but I flashed it around like a girl does upon engagement!!! I know that they are proud of their school but BOY did it make me proud of mine and the tradition that we have... I just love the sooners and could not imagine being ANYWHERE else... ok.. I am rambling on and my teacher is starting class back up again... but before I go I want to share my favorite part of the weekend... My brother, his gf (Sarah), and I went to LIFE church together on sunday morning.. it was such a good message.. the pastor talked about the good samaritan (did I tell you I can't spell???) and how he took care of a person he didn't even know and was willing to make the sacrifice both with his money and with his time.. HOW awesome!!! the pastor also said that just thinking about caring about someone and NOT acting is the SAME as not caring for them at all... It very much hit home... I am constantly seeing someone and thinking to myself that they could probably use help or just need a friend but I just keep going on with my NORMAL life. It made me what to reach out to those in need.. those that have needs greater than I.. God sure knows how to touch my heart.. WOW!!!!
God bless you all...
until next time..
