Texas Stadium - The Final Farewell

It's hard to know where to start when this topic comes up. I knew this day would come, but never really thought the day would actually get here. Well, it did and what a day it was. Although the Cowboys lost, Dave and I spent 12 great hours at Texas Stadium - saying one final goodbye. My very first time at Texas Stadium was in 1996 when the Cowboys hosted the Green Bay Packers for the NFC Championship. (we won, of course and then went on to win the Super Bowl) I went with my Dad and some of his friends. I cried when we walked in and saw the field for the first time. Funny, I cried when Dave and I left this last weekend, too.....we have lots of memories there. Not only lots of fun games, but it is also where Dave asked me to marry him - on the star - on the 50 yard line. I don't think it gets much better than that. On that day, we went on a tour of Texas Stadium and got to see the Cowboys locker room, run down the tunnel, catch passes in the end zone and just play around on the field. That too, was a great day - and has led to many, many more great days.....which brings me back to this last weekend. It was really hard for me to walk out of that stadium knowing I would never set foot in there again, but we still have the memories and those will live forever!! Thanks for all of the memories, Texas Stadium. We will miss you!!
