For all of you that know us, (and for those of you that don't) we are 110% Alabama Crimson Tide fans. Our daughter, Krisha, is the biggest Alabama football fan alive. Ok, maybe she ties with her cousin, Sherry. (you will see later in this posting that they share several characteristics). Krisha became engaged during the summer of 2007. After several discussions, we decided on planning the wedding for April 12, 2008 in Tuscaloosa at the beautiful NorthRiver Yacht Club overlooking Lake Tuscaloosa. After having the invitations printed, the DJ booked and everything that goes along with planning a wedding..............the University of Alabama announces that this year's A Day game will be played on April 12, 2008!!!! As shocked as we were, Krisha decided not to cancel the wedding in favor of attending A Day (that's a little humor). Maybe it is because of another characteristic she shares with Sherry.....the man she is engaged to is 110% Auburn fan! (WHAT? What is wrong with these girls? They were raised better! I suppose it is true, when you meet your soulmate, the team they pull for just isn't that important. WHATEVER! Before I would marry Jim, he had to believe in two things 1. God and 2. Bear Bryant. It really wasn't that difficult to convert Jim to an Alabama fan (he graduated from La. Tech...that little team that beat us in 1999) after he attended a few tailgating parties at the Quad and saw how deeply everyone believes in the Tide.) Back to Krisha's story...it will be difficult for us to keep track of Krisha that Saturday to make sure she is getting her hair done, her make-up done, etc. instead of sitting in the stands singing along to Sweet Home Alabama!!! However, as much as she is in love with Dan, we are sure she will be 110% devoted to her wedding day.....BUT, come football season it will be two newlyweds in a house-divided!!!
By the way....A Day starts at 1:00 and the wedding starts at 6:00, so all our friends and family will still be able to attend both! (We are planning to do the Saban Cupid Shuffle Dance.)http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qXIJgaa0MJw
