Howdy Fam

Howdy you all. Hope you all had a great Thanksgiving. Fun to see pictures of Emily at Chy's and Kate & Clair. Mom and I have to be better taking picture. We did not get a one of our Thanksgiving Feast. Mimi did such a great job. Everything was so good and the table looked so pretty. It was great having Joel, Brit & Brooklyn with us. Friday I drove down to Kingsville for the Judson game. Judson won 37-15. It could have been 37-0. The first TD was a gift from the officials and the second was scored on the third team defense. Judson will have their work cut out for them on Saturday. They play Spring Westfield. Westfield has lost one game in the past two years and that was the state campionship game in 2004. They are currently rank #3 in the nation by USA Today. Joel worked the films Sunday and he said they are beatable. The game will be here in SA at the Northside new stadium, Saturday at 2:00 PM.

BYU is in the Las Vegas Bowl Thursday, December 22 at 5:00 PM PST. It will be on ESPN. That is our temple night so we will have to watch it on Friday. Still waiting to hear on Clemson's bowl game. Columbia did win a game or two didn't they Em? I know they did not win a Ivy Leage game. Oh well Emily did not go there for their football team. I am sure their team members are smarter then BYU and Clemson's. Speaking of football Texas State (formally SW Texas) won their playoff game. It was a big upset. I think it was against Ga Southern. First time they have gone to the playoffs in 20 years. Everyone around here is excited about it. I sure wish D-1 had a playoff system. BYU women volleyball team (I think they are 20-3) is in the NCAA Tournament. The finals will be here in SA. That would be neat if they made it here.

I am soooooooo looking forward to having you all here at Christmas time. I really miss Emily and Kate and Clair. You too Ros and Stephen! I just got use to having Em here this Summer and the girls just bring so much joy and happiness to us. Wish you all lived here in the "Call Compound". You all be good. Love you all mucho, mucho, mucho. PAPA
