This weekend made my heart swell times ten, it was almost
perfect. So many of my favorite things wrapped into 48 hours, it was hard for
me to see it all come to an end.
Back up, last week I came down with the flu. I am only
assuming I picked it up while stuck in Santa Fe last weekend…at least that’s what
I am choosing to think anyway. So, knowing that I had such a fun weekend
planned in Oklahoma City with friends I didn’t tell hardly anyone I was sick. I
have issues. I didn’t want people to tell me not to go and for my little heart
to be crushed. Well, I had the flu and I did as much as I could to rest and
shake it before Friday evening. The doctor told me to rest and I promised would…
until Friday evening haha and I was pretty good to go by 5:00 Friday and hit
the road running!
I’m a big Oklahoma City Thunder fan and their season just
started but I was already itching to get down there for a game. It was alumni
night for UCO where I graduated from so my friend Jessica and I definitely took
advantage of being able to get tickets so easily.
My best friend Melissa works for the Thunder so I also got
to see her for a little bit. Even though most of the team is injured right now,
way too many suits on the bench, and we lost by two it was such a fun evening! THUNDER
UP!
Saturday morning Jessica and I headed to Norman for the
OU/Baylor game. Ah, this was the worst game. Sadly, this year OU just hasn’t pulled
it together. We all thought this year we had a chance possibly to get our eighth
national championship…well we are now not even bowl eligible or even have a
shot at a conference title. None the less, we are now unranked. Depressing and
something we OU fans as well as the team are for sure not used to.
However, all that being said as a true OU fan it hurts my
heart to not only see fans flooding the exits barely into the third quarter but
booing your own team?! I get it, it was frustrating to watch our defense let
Baylor run the exact same play seven times in a row successfully and to see the
lack of excellent coaching on the OU sidelines. But, to boo your OWN team AT
home is absurd. I think OU player Zach Sanchez said it best in his post-game
interview “When you’re hot, they’re gonna ride with you. When you’re low, they’re
gonna walk out during the game. But the true fans, we respect them.” So, to not
turn this post into a complete rant over the lack of respect OU fans gave our
team Saturday, if you are THAT fan then our guys don’t need you and neither
does the Oklahoma Sooners program altogether. But, to see the three Baylor
players prayer with Trevor Knight’s little brother Connor after Trevor’s
injury, priceless. Thanks Baylor for showing the love in Norman! BOOMER SOONER!! {Rant ended.}
Anyways, the rest of Saturday I did a little Christmas
shopping and ended the night with dinner and drinks with Melissa. Great
conversation, great company and a great time!
Sunday after church I met Melissa and our friend Becca for lunch
and a little makeup fun at Sephora. Ladies, you know sometimes a girl just
needs her friends and to play dress up! I just have the best friends a girl
could ask for. Be jealous you guys!
To top off the weekend I got to love on my baby Bleeker! For
those reading that don’t know this, Bleeker was mine and my roommate’s (Melissa
from this post) dog before I got married and moved away. This little guy still
holds a part of my heart but now resides with her. I mean, just look at him!
Would you just look at this precious face eeeek melts me!
Yesterday evening I headed home and geared up for a full
week. With being under the weather last week the laundry, grocery shopping,
errands and lack of working out sure piled up. Fingers crossed for a productive and healthy week! Despite the loss for both of my teams, I absolutely adored my weekend. How was your weekend y’all?
I teared up before I even read the first sentence of this post ��
ReplyDeleteWhat a sweet little pup! I feel your pain on college football...my husband and I are UGA fans, and their shot is gone after the terrible Florida loss. There is always next year! Stopping by from the linkup. :)
