Boomer!!! ...Sooner!!!

Aaaand that's the only time you'll see me write that :)

GO BEARS!!!!

Sorry. 

I just uploaded these same pics of FB, but for those family members without FB here they are! Pictures from our weekend in Norman, OK. A total of 11 of us traveled to watch Eric play in the spring game. Thank you Coach Stoops for playing ALL of the players, including my little bro. No matter what happens from now on, I can say that Eric's dream came true. All he's ever wanted along this journey is a CHANCE to show everyone what he can do. And he's been blessed to have that chance, now not only during practice but during an actual game. 

We couldn't have hidden our pure JOY and PRIDE for him that day if we wanted to!!! I haven't seen my mom that smiley in a while! :) One of the best days of our families' life. Thank you Lord! You get all of the glory.

If you step back, it's a beautiful story God has weaved together for the world to see. A story He knew and began putting the pieces together for a long, long time ago. A story of dedication, determination, faith, hard work, patience, endurance, positive attitudes, and an unwavering sight on a high goal!!! 

And having a supportive, loving system of family, friends and even strangers is simply the icing on top!

We love you Eric. Thank you for your inspiration to us and all of those you encounter!



My cutie jammin out.


Our shirts were such a BIG hit! The whole day people came up to us asking about Eric and congratulating him and us. GOOD IDEA MOM on making shirts!!! And THANKS Kortni for making them :)


Hiding from the tornadoes, yikes. One JUST missed us.




Game day.
















Eric said it was a great experience to sign autographs and interact with the kiddos.

ERic had several tackles, even though they put 1.

O'Ryan's shirt.


"We faithfully preach the truth. God’s power is working in us. We use the weapons of righteousness in the right hand for attack and the left hand for defense. We serve God whether people honor us or despise us, whether they slander us or praise us. We are honest, but they call us impostors. We are ignored, even though we are well known. We live close to death, but we are still alive. We have been beaten, but we have not been killed. 10 Our hearts ache, but we always have joy. We are poor, but we give spiritual riches to others. We own nothing, and yet we have everything."

2 Corin 6:7-10
