A Great Year

January 15, 2012 | Uncategorized

 

It’s no secret that I am a huge football fan. Specifically the LSU Tigers and New Orleans Saints. Both my teams lost this week, but we still had an amazing year of football here in Louisiana. We played our hearts out, and I couldn’t be more proud. I have done a few other posts about my beloved teams:

Friday Favorites: Football

The Boys of Fall

Football? Football!

‘Aints No More

Superbowl Baby!

Drew Brees is my Hero

Today my parents, Bobby and I went out to lunch before the big game.

It was fun seeing everyone all decked out in their Saints gear, even all of the employees! Later, my aunt and her friend came over and we all watched the game. Unfortunately, you can’t win a game when you have five turnovers. Such a heartbreaker, I am so sad. I really thought we were going to win. Always next year right? Regardless of the outcome, I am still a always a Saints fan.

QOTD: Who do you think will play in the superbowl?

    Awwww, sorry for your loss! Seriously though, it’s always sad when your team is done for the season:( Are you still planning to watch the Superbowl?

    I love your consistent support for your teams! I know it can be hard during a heartbreaking loss – but like you said, there’s always next year! 🙂

    I’m glad you had a great season cheering on both of your teams! It’s not just about the win, but the joy in cheering and enjoying the game as a whole! Looking forward to next year…

    I like everyone’s Saints gear. I wanted them to win too, even though I don’t really care about the NFL. Our local team is the Panthers and while they did better this year than last year, they didn’t make the playoffs. Clay and I aren’t huge NFL fans, though. Either way- both the Saints & LSU had a great year, and it’s so neat that your whole community rallies around the teams like that.

    Is it just me or does the lighting in those pictures make my forehead look huge…or is my forehead just huge?
    Stinks about the Saint’s, we were sooo close. And we would now be playing the Giants in the dome had we won!

I turned 40 today. 🎉 Hitting a milestone like t I turned 40 today. 🎉 Hitting a milestone like this has me reflecting—not just on what I’ve accomplished, but on who I’m becoming.

I’ve always been driven to achieve, to push, to prove. But lately, I’ve been learning to celebrate presence over performance, connection over perfection.

Today wasn’t about checking a box or hitting a goal—it was about pausing, feeling grateful, and eating a ridiculous amount of cake with people I love. And honestly? That feels like growth.

Here’s to 40: more aligned, more grounded, and still a little extra. 😉

Turning 40 tomorrow. 🎂 Big milestones always Turning 40 tomorrow. 🎂 

Big milestones always make me pause and ask:
What am I proud of?
What needs to shift?
Am I becoming the woman I want to be?

💡 As an Enneagram 3, I’ve always been wired to achieve — and for a long time, that meant shaping myself into whatever version I thought people would like best.

There are tables where it’s clear I’m not welcome — and that used to wreck me.
But at 40? I don’t do cliques. I don’t do shrinking or contorting to be accepted. 👀

I’ll always be kind. I’ll always be respectful. But I’m done dragging a chair to tables that were never built for me.

I’m moving over. Making space.
Creating my own table.
