Texas Tech University Vs. University of Texas

University of Texas was ranked Number 1 in the nation for College football. That was until they played the number 7th ranked, Texas Tech university last night. ESPN was there to broadcast the game. UT was ahead in the final quarter 33-32. Tech scored a touch down in the final second of the game and beat UT 39-33!!! Texas Tech is now ranked number 2 in the nation and University of Texas was dropped down to number 4. Way to go Tech!

Guns Up!






This is a picture of the stadium underwater, caused by our last really big rainfall a couple months ago. Neat picture!

First trip in our new car

We bought a new car, so of course we had to have a road trip. We drove down to Abilene and met met both of our parents for dinner, then drove to Cisco, so Charlie could show me where he grew up and introduce me to some of his family. This is my first trip out of Lubbock, since I moved here two years ago. It was so much fun.

This is my mother Pat and my step-father Wayne. I haven't seen them in over two years. Wayne said he is growing the beard so he can play Santa Clause this year in their new town of Winter, Texas.

This is Mom and her handicap assistance dog "Z". "Z" was thirsty.

This was the veiw on the way to Cisco. Texas does have trees... huh.




Ignore the power lines in these pictures, they aren't really there.

New to Us car

We also bought a new used car on Halloween. It is a 1999 Lincoln Town car. It's fully loaded with leather seats, a V8, and plenty of leg and head space for Charlie.
The picture was taken with my cell phone.

Halloween At Work

My work wouldn't let us dress up for Halloween, so a co-worker and I decorated. We had to be creative and use the supplies on hand. I think it turned out pretty good.

This was the view from my office at sunrise, Halloween morning.
