Its Friday!!!!!!!!!

I am so excited that its Friday.  Here are my favorite things to do with my Mom and Dad on the Weekends.  I am older now so I don't see my parents everyday, but the things I like to do with my parents now is not much different.

1. Watch College Football with my Dad.  He gets so animated.  I usually jump up and high five him when OU scores.  He took me to the national championship game when OU played FSU.  (we won by the way :)  I think his arm still has permanent finger marks where I clenched his arm when I was nervous.
2. Go shopping with my mom.  Its not even about getting stuff.  Its going out and about and enjoying the day.
3. Going to movies with my Dad.  He will either sleep or love it.  He always gets popcorn.  Sorry mom, I have probably had more "really bad for you" popcorn in my life than you know.  Sorry dad, I ratted you out.
4. My mom teaching me how to sew and do crafty things.  I didn't really like this when I was younger, but she was always making things (cross stiching, making tons of christmas doormats, sewing)  She would always have me help her.  I learned alot from her and I love it now!  Mom, when you come visit next..you have got to help me sew a slip cover for a thrift store chair I bought.

Then someday, you will get married and see how your husband likes to spend time with his parents. Here is Lee's fave things to do with his mom and dad:

1. He (and now I) love to try out new things with his mom OR go with her to try out new things he or she's found.
2. He loved to talk to his dad about life and when he was away from home, would call  most nights.
3. With both, we really enjoyed playing games.  His dad would KILL us in Monopoly or LIFE.  His mom is really good at the "telephone picture game" and Mad Gab  ( "Chew Lie Tea Force " - its an inside joke from Mad Gab that I still laugh at from time to time.  When you play Mad Gab, you will understand.)

All that to say, have a fun weekend.  Cheer for the Sooners to beat Cincinatti.  For my best friend Ashley (check out her blog here) cheer for Arkansas to beat Alabama....and spend some time with your mom and dad!
