Dad's happy....

I had planned to go out of town this weekend with girlfriends but our plans fell through...
My weekend of rest and fun quickly turned to a weekend about Mike...
Mike has been looking forward to the movie Secretariat coming out forever!  He apparently loved that horse as a kid and knows everything about him and was dying to see the movie.
I know that he knows everything about the horse because he would lean over and tell me what was going to happen before it happened in the movie...
He wanted us all to go and was just completely surprised when the girls didn't really have any interest in seeing "a movie about a horse"....
Today though, I guilted talked them into going and spending some family time that dad wanted..
I was pleasantly surprised at how good it was!
Kellie said she liked it, Katie said it was OK... she was grateful there was one "cute guy" in it...
However, when Mike was talking about the movie and the guy who was the "groom" in it, Katie was very perplexed since she didn't remember a wedding in the whole movie... he had to explain he meant the guy who grooms the horse...she has also decided since she is so short maybe she should be a jockey...
Kellie and I ready to move to a farm and get a horse... "and a pig, maybe some chickens but defiantly a pig" per Kellie...
We've not provided enough exposure to farm animals in their up bringing...

So, let's recap Mike's great weekend -
Someone gave him tickets to the Texas Tech game, front row seats, and he and Kellie went...
The Ranger's won...
We went to see Secretariat...
Now the whole completion of the good weekends rest on the Cowboys...
I hope they don't disappoint...
