Santa's Visit

Our first Christmas as a married couple was great! We covered both families by having breakfast with Pat's family and lunch with mine on Christmas day. Santa visited Einstein, George, and Gracie. They loved all their gifts!

Merry Christmas!!

In case you were wondering, they are fraternal twins...

#22, Heisman Winner

Congratulations to Mark Ingram for winning the University of Alabama's first-ever Heisman trophy. Ingram was genuinely surprised to win. He was overwhelmed, humble, and appreciative in his speech and thanked all those that have helped him. Thanks, Mark, for representing the tradition and excellence of Alabama football. You've made the 'Bama Nation very proud!

Keep 'Em Coming, SI

The deserving Crimson Tide is on this week's Sports Illustrated cover and highlights Colin Peek's catch for a touchdown. On the off chance there is an SI jinx, thank goodness Alabama doesn't play this Saturday...

P. S. Colin Peek was also the Red Lobster Scholar Athlete of the Game for the SEC Championship.

We're Going to Pasadena!!!

Hey Gators! We just beat the hell out of you! Rammer Jammer, Yellow Hammer! Give 'em hell, Alabama!

 

Groom's Cake

Pat and I went to a wedding on Saturday, and I just have to share a picture of the groom's cake. The reception had a winter theme. The cake was penguins in snow and ice! What a cute (and new) idea!!

I think penguins are particularly cute. (Yes, I made Pat take me to see The March of the Penguins!) These penguins also remind of the Muppet penguins, so that makes the cake even more precious!
