WE ARE THE CHAMPIONS!!!!

So this was a big weekend. A REALLY big weekend.

First off, Grandma and Grandpa came down, and Grandma taught me that Christmas presents can be given in November. I like that idea.

Second, I got to watch a lot of football with Daddy and Grandpa. It was fun, because whenever the Hawkeyes or Vikings score, I got to give them five, and unlike most weeks, that was a regular occurrence. I slept through most of the Colts game, but Mommy said I didn't miss much.

Third, and most important, the Hawkeye Field Hockey team won their second-straight Big Ten Tournament Championship in spectacular fashion!! That's right, the last time they didn't win the title I wasn't even BORN yet!!! In the championship game, the Hawkeyes beat the formula out of Michigan, 4-1. My friend Caroline was named Tournament MVP, too, because she is awesome.

Now it is off to NCAA Regionals. Daddy said if they get to host, he will take me to the games in Iowa City (if it is OK with Mommy). SCORE!!!

The weekend must have been a little too much for Mommy and Daddy, because the last two days they slept in for an extra hour. I'm still up at my normal time, but they were still in bed. Luckily, I had the monitor on and Daddy could hear me if I hollered for him. I let him sleep a bit, though, cuz it must be tough being old.
