Yesterday my parents came to town to babysit so Bob and I could go to the game. Just in case you aren't familiar with the history this game it is a BIG deal. For the last 80 some odd years this game has been held in Dallas and part of the excitement for the Sooners is coming to the big city, the fair, the game,the corny dogs, etc..
Let's rewind 10 years There is sort of an "unwritten rule" there is no class the week of OU/Texas. On Thursday before the game 14 or so girlfriends who pile into one car and drive to Big D for the weekend. When we got here all 14 of us would get ONE hotel room because we had to make sure we had enough money leftover for "soda" ya know. Sooo this year being a mother now I am thinking to myself...."What about this sounds like a good idea?" ABSOLUTELY NOTHING!! My poor mother:)
Assuming that Reese will go to OU we came up with a suitable plan for her to enjoy the event. Since my parents live in Oklahoma they will escort her and her 14 girlfriends to Dallas where they will just stay with us. Then Bob can take them to the game and make sure there is no stops for "soda" along the way! Hmm...I wander how Reese will feel about this??
Despite the fact that my Sooners lost this year Bob and I still had a great time. We enjoyed our baby-free day and some corny dogs too:) I didn't take my camera but one of Bob's buddies took some pictures so I will post them when he sends them to me.

OMG!!!!!!!!!!!! You really didn't do that, did you?!? You know that everything good or not-so-good that you do, you get back double.
I definitly will be escorting the girl everywhere! We'll pretend that she will be "Driving Miss Nannie/Patsy" since I'll be REALLY OLD by then; but I'll really chaperoning...she just won't know it!!!
