Sorry for being away for a week - nothing overly momentus happened. But, we just had a weekend for the memory books! My sister, Mary Beth, flew in and got to meet Lawson for the first time. After many weekends of watching Aggie football on tv, we took our first big trip on Saturday to see A&M play at Mizzou (only 2 hours from here). It was quite an adventure! Lawson was a champ! He was SOOOOO good all day and everyone loved our cute little Aggie fan. He even got chatted up by our quarterback's stepmom. It almost made up for the fact that we got totally stomped.....

Another bonus, one of my students from Virginia is a freshman at Mizzou, so I got to see her too. The downside was that we got towed!!!! We knew when we parked it was a little questionable, but we thought it would be okay. Worst case, we might get a ticket, but nope - we got to spend the afternoon unscrewing that situation. Ugh. But the good outweighed the bad and we were all impressed by Lawson's flexibility. Not only was he good all day, but the adventure didn't mess up his nighttime routine nor did it effect his disposition today. What a great kid!
