KU

We've been watching a lot more KU games this year than last year. I think it has both to do with the championship last year and we seem to be getting more games on ESPN360.com than we did last year. We like the new look for the videos on there too; the "full screen" version actually uses the whole page instead of part of the page being used for ESPN ads and such.

For the upcoming game tomorrow against Oklahoma: are people happier that Blake Griffin might be out for the game? I have mixed feelings. On one hand, anything that improves our chances is good, but on the other hand it would be nice to beat the whole OU team. I think overall I will take a win no matter what, so I guess it's better to be against a lesser OU team. What I really wanted was to play the #1 team in the country, but I bet OU won't be that team come gametime.

Other news
It snowed here the last few days...a lot. We had to snowblow and it seemed to have about 6 inches at our house. We went for a walk today and the girls loved to sit, then fall backwards, in the snow next to the sidewalk. They made lots of snow angels. It's cute the first few times, but we really wanted to go just a little faster...

The girls are really loving all of Mary Ann's toys from her birthday. Favorite is probably the Leap Frog system from my parents. We got the old one we had from a long time ago and so they both can read/play at once. I can't imagine the screaming if we only had one system... They also drag out the naked puzzle that Matt and Jen got Mary Ann... (Mary Ann says "that where you pee pee!")

Movie of the weekend: Kung Fu Panda. Rose was kung-fuing the TV at the end of the movie, then danced for the closing credits (doing Eric's family proud).
