I didnt fully realize how amazing he was until after he retired. I do miss him on the sidelines.<br /><br />Thanks VK, you're a pretty amazing momma yourself! We both have awesome kids!! <br />Some of the stuff on that memorial fence was really heartbreaking and other stuff was off the wall. Its funny you picked up on the scrunchy. Lauren did too. <br /><br />Thanks Linnn, glad you enjoyed. I had fun putting them together. And like Annie said, now I have a written account that wont let me forget some of the details. =)<br /><br />Oh Observer....you almost started hating on my Boys there! lol <br />I wish they'd put the politics aside for the WTC memorial but that wont happen and I'm sorry to say, the politicians will probably mess it up. As usual. Thanks for reading hun..glad you liked it!<br /><br />LOL Angelia, it was ALL mine for a few hours!! If we get tix to the game, you and Jason should come with!!<br /><br />Thanks Linda! And it is a wonderful memorial, beautifully planned and executed. <br /><br />I wanna live in that stadium NFO!

I would love to stand on the field at Arrowhead, or Kauffman Stadium or the new Giants Stadium.<br /><br />I have always wanted to go to OKC to see the Memorial. I agree with you, something like that for Ground Zero would have been nice. NYC is all about the Benjamins so that has influenced their decisions a great deal. <br /><br />Wonderful posts--I almost felt like I was with you all. Best to your daughter and I thank her for her service to our country :-)<br /><br />The ObserverThe Observerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17696168395133075354noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3116052676973740719.post-86709919790541600512010-07-10T14:08:31.397-04:002010-07-10T14:08:31.397-04:00The little chairs for the children.

You, Sugar, are one of the best! What a great trip!<br /><br />Now about that football place. Damn! I know everything is bigger in Texas, but damn! Just look at you all kinds of happy in there!<br /><br />The Federal Building pics were amazing. I loved seeing the chairs. I remember so vividly when that happened. But I do have to ask who the hell leaves a bath scrunchy as a memorial? Gotta give it to them...it's a pretty color!<br /><br />I am so happy you had these 4 days of memories to treasure.

I only got a minute of it in June, but it is enough for this minute! I will see them in a month!<br />I am amazed at how much you squeezed into those three days!! And remembered to take lots of pics for your blog friends to drol over. How effing cool was that video of Lauren making the goal??? That seems like all your dreams wrapped up into that one moment!! So glad you are recharged!

Everyone should be so lucky.<br /><br />MC, she actually sat on my lap this weekend. I think there was a lack of seats at her buddies. It feels soo good to wrap my arms around her and just hold on. Her "smell" is like a tonic that I fill up on and save for those days I miss her the most. And thanks for the compliments. :)<br /><br />See Capt!! THATS exactly what I'm talking about. Shit from every other NON Cowboy fan I meet. lol Lauren and I are seeing about getting tix (even the standing room only ones) for the last pre season game in Dallas. Its against Laurens team - Dolphins. How sweet would that be!!<br />And out of about 25 pics that was the ONLY usable fireworks pic.<br />And Please go to the Memorial. You wont be disappointed, I promise! And there is a museum there that cost about 10.00 AND make sure you see it during the day AND at night. Its supposed to be even more beautiful at night with the chairs lit from underneath. I'm sorry we didnt see that! <br />I missed the dogs something fierce while I was away!! lolAnonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07083141849691624128noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3116052676973740719.post-32623137522183175902010-07-10T00:13:21.332-04:002010-07-10T00:13:21.332-04:00What a beautiful post.

He is trying to get me to fly with him to Green Bay this fall to see my mighty Packers whup up on the boys from Texas. And now you. Sheeeeeit.<br /><br />Actually, that was pretty golly gosh darn cool that you got to see the new stadium. You will remember that for a long time. What a weekend!<br /><br />That looks like a pretty good firework picture to me. Even pro photographers struggle with fireworks, the lighting, color or focus is slightly out of whack. I took 60 images on the fourth, I wasn't happy with any of them. Whattaya gonna do?<br /><br />The Murrah Building Memorial is truly sacred ground. A good friend of mine was the night operations chief there during the rescue/recovery mission - it changed his life. I am going back to Louisville Kentucky this fall. Thanks to this post, I am going to stop. My allergies will likely give me fits and my nose will run and my eyes will water. <br /><br />Thanks for the report Pee Dee it sounds like you had the perfect weekend. Except that the dogs weren't with you.Capt.

He was one of a kind, in that fedora and overcoat. <br /><br />And OKC. How beautiful to see that it is still remembered and kept well, visited, tended, and made a pilgrimage to.<br /><br />I cannot believe how grand spanking wonderful this trip was. I am SO GLAD you got to go. You'll never forget it, ever. And you have 3 blog posts and I bet even more pix to remind you.<br /><br />I am so happy for you,<br />and you look great.<br />And Lauren looks great,<br />And you are a great mom,<br />and great big tears are poppin' out.<br /><br />Muah!<br />AnnAnn T.https://www.blogger.com/profile/11128699035211561119noreply@blogger.com
