My Blog Has Been Hijacked by Family!!!

They haven't really hijacked my blog...but they are doing some great things today...while I am stuck working, reading, and sitting at home! Wahhhhhh waaaaaahhhhhhhh

Taylor, my youngest sister, left for Zambia today with the Graceland SIFE team. She was elected as one of six people to go to Africa for 3 weeks during winter term to work with young kids. She was nervous, but very excited. I believe her nervousness went away when she got on the plane..... she texted me with this picture, saying "We got blankets, pillows, socks, headphones, eye masks, toothpaste, and toothbrushes!" Just like another Christmas! I will try to keep you all updated on her adventures while she is there!

In other news, my middle sister, Kasey, has been down in Florida with her boyfriend Sam's family. Being that he was the former running back for Iowa (if you were watching the big game tonight, you would have heard his name mentioned with 1:49 left in the first half), she scored some tickets to the Orange Bowl. Here is when she was making me jealous upon her entry to the field....

And now with the view from her seats......30 yard line, first deck!!!!
And this was when Kool & The Gang was performing....

At the time of this post, Iowa is leading 14-7 after the first half. Kasey is getting to be there for one awesome game and I hope the Hawkeyes can keep it up!!!

Maybe if you stopped reading and ESPECIALLY knitting every once in a while, you could pay attention to your family and have some fun with us. Trust me, we have a blast.
