This has been a great month so far. Chad and I have spent more time together in the last 3 weeks than we have in the past 5 months. This is a gift for me; a rare gift for a coach's wife. He actually did not go up to UofH for an entire 2 weeks. We even got to take a little trip last weekend when we went to his friend's wedding in Moss Point, Mississippi. Folks, Moss Point is not a thriving metropolis- in fact, it reminded so much of my home town, Mont Belvieu. I have to say though that the trip was fun!! What does that tell you - that we need to get out more often? First of all, I love weddings. The dresses, the emotion, the memories it stirs up and the possibility of getting to dance make for a perfect date. The reception was fun with good food and perfect dancing music. Unfortunately, Chad does not share my enthusiasm for the dance floor so we did not make it out there. In his defense, we did meet some very interesting people and he was busy talking most of the evening (but give him a tease about it the next time you talk to him - tell him to take his wife dancing). Anyway, thanks Erik and Hayle for the invitation and including us in your big day. Unfortunately, all good things eventually come to an end. The off-season workouts will be starting up soon which means seven weeks of getting up before the sun rises. Early to rise means very tired husband falling asleep in the recliner after supper. After so many seasons I know what to expect. It is nice, however, to sometimes get the unexpected - like having this extra time together. It sure was fun while it lasted.
