all about football.....

Well.... I am excited this morning!  If ya don't like football.. ya might want to skip my blog today!  Seattle Seahawks beat the Saints in the Wildcard playoff spot! 41-36!  What a game! We never knew who would come back on the field. Seattle teams are not known for their consistency... but for choking when they need to pull it off. But we did it! THAT is why everyone is so excited in Seattle! Who dat? SEATTLE SEAHAWKS!  And we will ride the wave until next week ... then see what happens. My favorite play of the day??? Easy... Marshawn Lynch!
He broke six tackles on the 67-yard run, tossing in a massive stiff arm that sent cornerback Tracy Porter to the turf and completed the longest scoring run of his career.

Karla's husband, Joel, got to go to this game. He is such a huge Seahawk fan... I am so happy he got to be there.  He was one of those thousands of #12 fans yelling their hearts out and making it miserable for Drew Brees and many other quarterbacks who have gotten to play in Seattle.  Wish we could take #12 on the road!  GO SEAHAWKS!  We either play Atlanta or Chicago.  Could be tough on the blogger front. lol!

I bet alot of you didn't know I was a huge football fan?  Our whole family are fans.  When the kids were little I would write every team playing every week in this notebook and everyone of us would pick who we thought would win.  The winner who picked the most wins had bragging rights that week and would go on their record to see who won for the whole year! We did that for years!!! It was fun.  All the kids had their own favorite teams!

Kevon was a huge New York Jets fan (Mark Gasteneau era)! Ryan loved Chicago Bears (Refrigerator Perry era)!

He loved Seattle too... he loved football!

They both loved Seattle Seahawks!

Karla loved Miami Dolphins and Dan Marino! Tara liked the Seahawks and her and Kevon were big Oklahoma Sooner fans and Brian Bosworth fans!

Heather in the middle with her Cincinnati Bengal Shirt... she loved them and Boomer Esiason!

Kevon and Ryan played football for 7 years in Peewee!

That is my football pictures.  Me and the girls all had sweatshirts too. Mine said "Mom of 28 and 32" and the girls said "Sister of 28 and 32". We would wear them at the games. It was such a great family time for us all! We lived, ate and drank football.  It was good that we were ALL involved!
