Sibling Rivalry (or is it team rivalry)

Back in May, Brad was watching the NFL Draft on ESPN and Cooper & Brady became intrigued with the football jerseys the players held up when they were drafted by their new team. That next week, Brad was on the phone with his Grandfather--known as Gran Pere to the kiddos. Cooper grabs the phone and walks over to the corner & starts asking Gran Pere to send him a Saints jersey. Brady naturally wanted a jersey also--he chose to be a Cowboys fan (only to be obstinate to his Grandpa Schindall who clearly doesn't like the "cowgirls")



Gran Pere told the boys if they would send him a letter, then he would get them the beloved jerseys. Well guess what was on the front porch last night....

You would have thought it was Christmas morning---they were sooo happy. It was so funny when we were taking pics with our phones and Coop said, "let me see that before you text message it to Gran Pere" We had to remind him that Gran Pere is "old school"--no cell phone & no pay at the pump.

I'm so glad to have a happy NFL Draft memory now. A few years ago, Brad tortured me and Jill making us listen to the draft on the radio for ten hours while driving to the beach.
