The rivalry

Posted by Trisha on Sep 30, 2006 in Purdue

Is there anything better than a great rivalry? Ours used to be Purdue vs. Indiana. Indiana has been out of contention as far as football is concerned for too many years to count (at least 8).

Today’s blog prompt: What gift do you wish you could give (if reality was not a factor) to the most important person in your life? I think I would most likely buy Brian a brand new Honda Accord. He sacrificed his so we could get our van when Alex came along. Sphere: Related Content

A new day

The boys’ school has started a walking club. Every morning at 7:45, the kids who want to participate (and their parents, if they choose to participate, too) walk around the entire school.
