'Twas the night before the BCS and all through the land, not a
Gator was stirring, not even the band.

Their Jockeys were hung by the locker with care, in hopes that the Sooners soon would be there.

Tebow was nestled all snug in his bed, while visions of glory danced in his head.

And Meyer in his kerchief full of Florida pride, and Bob and the Sooners ready to ride.

When down in Miami there arose such a clatter, Harvin sprang from his bed to see what was the matter.

He realized the Option was gone in a flash, and Tebow's dreams of running had just been dashed.

The Gator running backs trembled as they watched the show, A
Crimson and Cream luster set the horizon aglow.

When what to their wondering eyes should they find, but a
miniature Schooner, seven National Titles behind.

With a wizened old driver, skilled in leading his troops, they knew in a moment it must be Bob Stoops.

More rapid than Texas his players they came, and he whistled and shouted and called them by name.

"On Bradford, on Gresham, now Madu and Murray! On Chris Brown! On Iglesias! On Stevens and Curry!

To the top of the BCS! To the top of it all! Now dash their hopes! Dash their dreams! Dash away all!"

And then in a twinkling, the Gators fought back a scream, and Tim Tebow saw the last of his Heisman trophy dream.

The defense drew in their breath and looked all around, and
realized that their "savior Meyer" was nowhere to be found.

Bob's eyes how they twinkled, his coaches how merry! As they
carried on the legacy left them by Bud and Barry.

Tim's sad little face and a fear in his belly, he shook on the field as his knees turned to jelly.

He spoke not a word, and the ball they couldn't carry, Stoops filled up the scoreboard and then turned to Barry.

And laying his hand on the shoulder of his friend, he gave Switzer a nod and said, "Like Missouri again."

Bob sprang to the Schooner, to his team gave a shout, to the BCS they flew and left Florida down and out.

And we heard him exclaim as he drove out of sight, "Boomer Sooner to All and to All a Good Night.

Make Every Day Thanksgiving

Thank you, God, for little things
That often come our way;
The things we take for granted
But don't mention when we pray.

The unexpected courtesy,
A thoughtful, kindly deed;
A hand reached out to help us
In the time of sudden need.

O, make us more aware, our God,
Of little daily graces;
That come to us with "sweet surprise"
From never-dreamed- of places.

And help us to remember
That the key to life and living,
Is to make each prayer a prayer of thanks
And every day Thanksgiving.

Thanksgiving 11-25-08 12:05pm CST
I hope everyone has a wonderful Thanksgiving holiday and are able to spend at least part of it with family or friends. We have so much to be thankful for and should be thankful every day of the year. I'm thankful that my parents, nephew, niece and Kayla are going to be here, for a few days. My mom is making chocolate pie! yummmmmmmmm!!! I'm thankful there's a place reserved for me in heaven. God has really blessed us and we need to remember that. I could go on, and on, with a list of what I'm thankful for but won't. I do know that I need to think more spiritual instead of physical. Why is it that we don't keep, in the front of our minds, that we're spiritual beings in a human body?

What are you thankful for? How are you spending the holiday? If you're travelling I pray you'll be safe.
girlietexanI am thankful for lots of things too, mostly Grannies Coconut Pie :) I am traveling a whole 45 minutes to my Uncle Andy's and Aunt Tammy's house in Groves! I am also thankful that I was blessed with a Christian husband...I waited a LONG time! We got our card today...thank you so much!!! We will come in handy for sure :) 
sunshinebearI am thankful for many things, too! To name a few...our big Christian family, the hope of Heaven, my wonderful husband and family! Hope you enjoy your chocolate pie!!

OU/A&M 11-06-08 07:44pm CST
I'm all ready for the OU/A&M game on Saturday. My brother will be down tomorrow night, with his OU flags to put on my car, and my niece will come Saturday morning. I'm an Aggie fan until they play OU. I'm Sooner born and Sooner bred and when I die I'm Sooner dead! I've got a really cool shirt to wear. The front is OU and the back is A&M! Put together by a friend who might have gotten in trouble because her husband is a big Texas fan and having both and OU and Aggie shirt in the house. You get the picture. Gooooooooo Sooners!
sunshinebearHa-ha!!! Sooner dead...cracks me up! I hope the best man wins!! 
graceI heard about your shirt from the unmentioned seamstress. It sounds really cool!
