National Champs!

What a game, what a team, what a night!! I grew up in a family of Gator football fans, my husband, Andy, and I met at the University of Florida, and my kids are carrying on the Gator football fanatic tradition as well. So, we are one happy crew this morning.

We watched the game at my mom's house (across the street) as we do most big sporting events. Mom has cable and a decent T.V. (we have neither), so while the habit was born mostly from necessity, I really like the way it turns watching into a social event and takes on a party atmosphere.
There was LOTS of energy in the room and much running outside to scream and shout, wave the Gator flag and wrestle around between plays.
It was a rude awakening for everyone this morning after being up until well after midnight, but the big win boosted everyone's energy level this morning enough to compensate for lack of sleep.
Go Gators!!

Sounds like fun -- but what's up with the time stamps on the blog entries -- did you really post this one at 4 in the morning?!?

Yeah, no clue what is up with the date/time stamps - they are always wrong! Pretty sure the one on your comment is wrong too.
