This weekend we went to Dallas for the OU/Texas game. It was crazy! Dallas suddenly flooded with fans from each school. People were wearing their OU or Texas shirts on Thursday. Two days before the game! We went to the mall and every store was putting their red clothes beside their orange clothes. Even the underwear, reds beside the orange. We went to a resturant Friday night and in the middle of dinner, a man stands up and starts yelling "Boomer!" and every Sooner fan in the resturant yelled back "Sooner!". Then the Longhorns started in yelling "Texas!" and I'm not sure what the Texas response is to that because all I can ever hear is "Sucks!" when someone yells out "Texas!" This was only the beginning. The game, of course, was even crazier. The atmosphere in the stadium was something I have never experienced before. It was so loud and crazy that Asher started crying as soon as we walked in. My ears were ringing from everyone yelling. Poor Asher was so excited to go watch "Boom play football" but I he was too overwhelmed to even pay attention to Landry. All he wanted us to do was put our hands over his ears. This lasted for the first half of the game but towards the ends he started cheering. He wore himself out and slept for the last quarter. Now as for Adam and I, as I have said before, we are not huge OU fans since we graduated from Tech but we support Landry. However, we have a new outlook on OU football after this game. We wore our Crimson and yelled right along with all the other Sooners. We were disappointed that OU lost but we are so excited to go back next year. The experience was amazing!
Pictures: Asher was happy as long as he could wear Adam's hat (which in turn caused Adam to get really sunburned!), This is how we ended the game, Asher on the bus to the game. He kept calling the bus a "mo-home" (motorhome), This is the smile he gives everytime you tell him to smile for the camera. He closes his eyes. It's very annoying!, This was the best picture I could get of Landry, This is a picture of the line that seperates Sooners from Longhorns, Asher looks annoyed but at least we arent having to cover his ears.

Hey Nikki! I don't check facebook much but I got on and saw your pictures from this weekend. J.D. and I had an awesome time at the OU Texas game. It was unlike any game I have ever been to. Tell your dad we said "Thank You" for the tickets and hopefully we can tell him in person soon. It looks like you guys are doing well. Your stories on Asher are hilarious. I would love to hear him with those chants and stuff. Allie and I are doing great here in Artesia. She spends most nights grading papers while I give her moral support and watch football... I know it is a tough life. lol. Thanks again for the tickets. Talk to ya later. T.J.
Those are great pictures!! We knew you'd love the sooners after a game! Just wait for a big game in Norman! Woohoo! (I had to say all of that in honor of Justin too).
