Well Good Morning Colts Fans J I could not be happier to wake up this morning knowing we are still in the running for play offs! The game yesterday was AWESOME J Besides the outstanding "clutch" performance from our players…. The girls and I had a little fun of our own yesterday. We had our little Christmas Party in the locker room before the game and it was so much FUN! Presents and Cookies and Lots of Love and Laughter filled the locker room. There were also a few tears… because it hard to realize that the end of the season is drawing near and some of the best moments we have shared together, will soon become memories. Oh and My Bestie on the Squad, TESSA C. won Pro Bowl Cheerleader. I know she will represent our Colts with beauty, grace and talent!!! I'm so proud of herJ After the game, I went out to eat with my Dad and it was so good to see my family and know they had a blast at the game. Super happy J So Today, I am holding my head high, counting my blessings and being Thankful for the amazing experiences I have had so far with the Colts. I'm praying that they continue on their journey to return to SuperBowl XLV!!!!! I want to go to Dallas Baby!!!!!!! Go Colts

Ugh… Is it Christmas Yet??? I am heading into work extra early today because we have a long day in Court!!! I am a case manager for Marion County and I love my job, because I feel like I make a difference in someone's life every day. Sounds cliché, but it is true J When it came time for lunch I met up with some of my favorites at Hard Rock Café'. The girls on the team are more than teammates, they are my true friends. And they bring smiles to my face, when I have needed it the most. And have made me laugh, when I have wanted to cry. They have truly been there for me, when I have needed it the most!!! So to those of you, you know who you are, Thanks, you will never know how much it means to me to have you in my life J So, after a loooong day at work, I get to spend a little more time with them at practice tonight. We reviewed our dances for the BIG January 2nd GAME, I cleaned a dance that I choreographed and taught (And it looked SOOO cute) and we had a few words from our coach and unexpectedly got out of practice early….. This doesn't happen! So this must have been a little early Christmas present from our coach, who also by the way gave us ALL a pair of the cutest blue snow boots with the Colts Cheerleading logo on them! Theresa WE LOVE THEM, in case we didn't make that clear Sunday ;) Long day… But I'm getting more and more excited for CHRISTMAS!!!!
Wednesday 12/22
You know it's going to be a good day, when it starts out with cookies and deserts for Breakfast!!! J Ha, we all brought treats to work today and somehow it turned into our breakfast! My job can turn from calm and cool, to chaotic and stressful in a snap. So, I'm learning not to sweat the small stuff and go with the flow. Life is TOO SHORT to not enjoy it J So, after work I am going to do my favorite thing. Retail therapy. I have a few more presents to buy for my four little sisters (who are my angels) and I don't know what I would do without them. I am sure I'll spend too much on them and spoil them ;) And yes, I may get a little something for Sam, since I have worked so hard lately J Nothing wrong with that, right? Then it's time to snuggle on the couch, watch a movie and pack my bags, because tomorrow I am traveling to my hometown, Bardstown KY! It's the best…….. Y'all should come visit ;)
Thursday 12/23
Well I have to start the day by saying HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO THE BEST MOM IN THE WHOLE WORLD!!!! She has been there for me soooo much, and I honestly would not be writing this right now, without ALL her love and support over the years. I couldn't ask for a better MOMJ Today is going to be awesome because 1. I only have to work half a day. 2. I get to go home to see friends and family. 3. Give my mom her new coach purse I bought her and last….. It's almost time for Christmas and PRESENTSJ I'm still a kid at heart and love ripping the paper off the gifts under the tree. I keep asking my mom if I can open one early…. And she keeps saying NOL But anyways, I was taken to lunch today and hustled some people I work with at pool on my lunch break. Im a pool shark J And after that our boss let us leave early J Yeah, so I am leaving from work to head to my wonderful hometown. I
And I couldn't be happier to spend some time with my little sisters, parents, best friends and all the amazing people that I am SOOO Appreciative to have in my life!!!
Friday 12/24
It's almost here….. Yeah! On Christmas Eve we always have our Christmas at my Mamaw & TeeTee's (my grandparents) which are some of my number one fans! I don't know what I would do without themJ So it's always good to have a home cooked meal and look forward to playing Texas Hold'em, playing pool and spending quality time with my family. I
And then we all sat around by the tree and played with our new toys and snuggled in our new plush blankets, and watched Christmas movies and lay around just enjoying our time together. It was very relaxing and I truly enjoyed spending that time with my mom, daddy Dave and my 4 little sisters. I don't know what I would do without them. They also loved the gifts I got them, I am not the only one who gets spoiled on Christmas, they do too.
Saturday 12/25: MERRY CHRISTMAS EVERYONE
I slept in as late as I could and woke up to breakfast in bed…. French Toast, Yum J Today I don't have a lot of plans, just going to stay warm and relax at home. It feels good to have nothing to do…. ALL DAY! I taught my sister Emilee one of our dances, set up my new I-Pod dock, pampered myself with all the goodies I got for Christmas. After a long day of chilling and doing nothing. I got to meet up with one of my favorite people. My childhood best friend, Kayla, and we got together and caught up on all the crazy things that life brings. It was so good to see her. But I called it a night early and decided I would cuddle up in my new blanket, watch Elf and go to sleep J I am so grateful for my family and friends, because they put everything into perspective. I am one very lucky girl, who is truly blessed. Don't worry though, I know how fortunate I am, and try not to take anything for granted. I also pray for those who need it most during the Holidays and for those less fortunate. But God is good and everything good that we have, we have because of him. And he also never gives us anything that we are not strong enough to handle. So Happy Birthday Jesus!!! Thank you for such a wonderful, amazing Christmas that I got to spend with those I love the most. Priceless.
Sunday 12/26
Today is the BIG DAY! * GO COLTS Colts play the Raiders away and we need a WIN!!! I have a lot of hope and faith in my Colts, and I just have a feeling that we are going to come back and shock everyone! After a nice long day of hanging out with my family and packing up all my presents, it's finally here. I get these butterflies and can't sit still when I watch them play, at home or away. But it's harder to watch them on the T.V. when you're used to having the best seat in the house on game days J I watched the game during Christmas with my dad, and then we had Christmas with my MeeMee and DeeDee( other grandparents) who are some of my number one fans too! It was such a great day, because just like I knew, we won the game, and now all we need is to WIN our last home game on Sunday against the Texans, and playoffs here we come baby!!! I am so proud of our team for fighting through the struggles of having so many players on the injured list, and always finishing strong, no matter what! I truly could not even imagine, cheering on a more devoted and talented team. I love my Colts and I will cheer them on and support them all the way. Hope to see you in Dallas on February 6th. Thank you to all our COLTS FANS J We love ya and we need you just as much as ever! So keep the support coming, lets cheer them on, all the way to the ultimate victory! * GO COLTS
