Friday Night Lights is in full swing in Pawhuska, America, and I'm so glad to have both my parents close so they can see Todd's games. Football is all we are thinking about these days, obviously (since it's fall in Oklahoma), and it's fun to have an occasion every week to see the parental units.

Where did the term "parental units" come from? I'm thinking it must have been a Saturday Night Live skit in the seventies.

Anyway, we're excited for the season ahead! My dad and his wife Patsy still live in our hometown and have been able to attend games for the past four years, and now that my mom and her husband Doug have moved back to Oklahoma, Todd's fan section has consistently grown. 😊

Here's me with my mom and stepmom!

Yay for family!
