For The Win!

My son's high school football team just won the 4-A Colorado State Football Championship!!!

This is a major big deal (even though we are not Texas).

They played at the professional football stadium where the Denver Broncos play. See that white stuff on the seats? Snow. But the field was clear. I'm still thawing out my feet, though.

The game was probably one of the most exciting championships ever, with the Farmers saving the win in the last 29 seconds of play. It was the ultimate Disney ending, with the star player making a 56 yard run on 4th and 2 for the TD to win by 4. OMG.

That's my son below the arrow.

Happy Birthday, Viki.

I wish I had a chocolate-covered Draco to offer you. But alas. I can only share my own treasure: Snape.

Hope you had some good treats, sugar.

Mmmmm, chocolate covered anyone hits the spot in my opinion....

Thank you!

My dinner out was served by a waiter who was the spitting image of a young Alan Rickman, which was hard not to stare at.
