Thursday was "Sports Day" at our school. We cheer for several teams at our house:
BASEBALL: St. Louis Cardinals. In Southeast Iowa, Dan grew up listening to the "Cards" on the radio. When we first moved to Missouri and I heard and saw CARDINALS BASEBALL seemingly every day from April through October, I didn't think I liked that sport too much. Now I've been to a few games (two?) and gotten "to know" some of the players - and I actually LIKE baseball. Plus, if the Cardinals score 6 runs in a game, we get $ .25 slushies or drinks at our local Mobil on the Run!! 
COLLEGE TEAMS: Tennessee Volunteers and Iowa Hawkeyes - representing the teams from our home states.
NFL: Indianapolis Colts (because of former Vol, Peyton Manning) and Arizona Cardinals (because of our "good friend" Kurt Warner - see picture of us with Kurt & Brenda - that was March '04 at a USO function where Dan was recognized for his service in Iraq.). :)

Just so you know...I was on Wheel of Fortune with Kurt Warner! He is soooo my favorite ever!!
Hi! I started school with Kim again this week and she mentioned that you had seen my post. I got to your blog through someone else's and just happened to see it. I was Kurt's partner on Wheel of Fortune in 2000, the year they won the Super Bowl. KY3 followed us to LA and did stories on the whole thing. It was like being an 8 month pregnant star the whole time!!! I couldn't spin the wheel because of my belly, so he did. I wore a dark purple shirt and he happened to have one too, so he went and changed into it! They had to leave right after the taping, so I did not get to talk to him much after the game, but it was so much fun and then they won the Super Bowl on top of that!! My husband bought me a KW Cardinals jersey for my birthday in Jan. this year. It was great! Thanks for asking!
