Click on this picture to enlarge and pay special attention to what the scoreboard says. It's promoting one of Ole Miss' finest, with a GPA of 1.7 ........ huh???

Joseph, Sam, Gracie (one of the dogs), and I made the journey to Mississippi for Thanksgiving. We met up with Joseph's family for the first part of our trip and his college roommate for the second half. Sam thoroughly enjoyed every minute of playing with her cousins, Drew and Kameron. She left Mississippi with a new favorite toy, a toy stethoscope.... How ironic. We discovered Samantha looks exactly like Joseph's sister, when she was a baby. Pretty crazy how much they look alike. Sam was on her best behavior for all of the trip, except for our dinner at Outback Steakhouse. Joseph and I, unfortunately, had to take turns eating and walking Sam around the restaurant to keep her from screaming at top volume. I don't blame her for not wanting to sit. We'd been in the car for over 7 hours and hadn't yet made it to our final destination.
On Friday through Sunday, we joined forces with the Zerfoss family and cheered on University of Mississippi football, in Oxford. Joseph and Matt (Joseph's college roommate) actually made it to the game, which Ole Miss lost, while Melissa (Matt's wife) and I returned home to watch HDTV in a warm house. It was "freezing" in Mississippi the last 3 nights we were there. It actually dropped down into the 20's Thanksgiving night. I was more than happy to leave "The Grove" (the tailgating area) and go back home. We finally made it back to our own home late Sunday night, after 10 hours of driving. I just love it when there is a car accident on a major interstate on a holiday weekend.
