Anthony Dixon Keeps on Breaking Records

Last weekend we went to Lexington, KY to see our beloved Bulldogs and meet some wonderful friends from West Virginia we've recruited to be Bulldogs, too.  Two amazing surprises occurred and Anthony Dixon had something to do w/each.  First, we won an SEC game on the ROAD and Anthony broke the single game rushing record w/252 yards!  It was a much needed and surprising victory.  Lexington is our favorite road trip becausee it has the nicest fans and the prettiest town.  We stayed downtown and were treated to lots of good food and overlooked a park surrounded by fountains.  We love fountains.  After the game, we had to ride a shuttle full of sadly disappointed Big Blue fans and we were on our best visiting team behavior.  Trust me, we have had our share of disappointments and know how they felt.  The hotel had a bar called the Bigg Blue Martini bar so we thought the Bigg Maroon Martini bar would be a hit in Starkville.  By the time we got there it was too late at night to sample the martinis and after all, it was Halloween and we had lots of costumes to critique. 

The other good news around here is the Ramsey kitten, Stratten.  All kittens are cute but this one is especially adorable.  It is black and white like big brother, Jack, and sweet as he can be.  If I can figure out how to put a movie clip on here you will see for yourself.  He was found and rescued on Red Banks Road and will be ever indebted to Jordan for saving his life. 

We had the opportunity to go to Saunders' softball game tonight and got to see him hit a home run!  The crowd was sparse and I hope I didn't scream too loudly when the ball went OVER the fence at the same field at Johnson Park where Camille make her miraculous catch of a line drive to send our team to the championship game many years ago.
