Da Bears Prayer

My brother sent me this via email from a fellow Bears fan in Wisconsin... Yes Virginia, they really do exist (up there).

Our papa
Who art a BEAR
Hallowed be thy fame,
Thy championship come
Thy play be run
At home as it is away.
Give us this day our Sunday win,
And forgive us our turnovers,
Though we pounce on those who turnover against us.
And lead us not to fourth and long,
But deliver us from Krenzel.
As it was in ’85, so shall it be in ’07,
Reign without end, Da-Men!!!!!!!

Da Bears Prayer

Thanksgiving

We have returned from a successful trip to Chicago for Thanksgiving with my side of the family. The girls had a wonderful time seeing their Gram and Da, hanging out with Aunts, Uncles and of course the people they most wanted to see, their cousins.

A few things that I confirmed I should be thankful for from the trip:

• Putting new tires on the car less than a month ago
• Getting new brakes the day before leaving for our trip.
• Stopping to wash out my left contact lense when we were only two minutes north of downtown KC.
• Continuing a family tradition of always saying a Hail Mary prayer as we left the driveway at the beginning of our trip.
• Working seatbelts.
• Not hitting the 8 point buck as it darted out across the highway while I was driving 70 MPH, in the dark, with the kids and Mary asleep in the back.
  
• Safe travel to and from our home this past week to see loved ones.
