Our favorite team is Texas Tech and they won a very important game Sat. night...alas...they aren't blue and white, tho....I may have to join the gals on RUBY TUESDAY since our team is RED and black...:o)
Thanks for sharing all the BLUE AND WHITE this morning....
love, bj
Hi Sweetie...this was a great post...I learned something and that's always a good thing! We don't really have a fav college team, but always hope for the best with the Dallas Cowboys...might as well forget them this year though..
;-) Bo
I was born in PA and my favorite color is blue. This is a terrific tribute to a team that doesn't know how to lose. Happy Blue Monday!
Hi!
Your Blue Post is great! I'm not a football fan, but the Indianapolis Colts are here. They have blue. Thanks for stopping by my place. Take Care!!
Sherrie
Hi Sweetie, Thanks for your visit to my place today..you have posted all of your favorite blue things...
Hugs, Baba
Sweetie, I love your Penn State blue and white. congrats on your team's record this year so far. We are gator fans which includes our children who graduated from UF as did their spouses. Also my dh who also graduated from there. The Gators are having a good year thus far too.
Do you remember in the 1980's when the Univ. of Miami and Penn State played for the National championship? UM players came out with camo's and game faces making fools of themselves? They were favored and Penn State beat them. I loved that game because Miami beat themselves with their bad attitude. A lesson for all!!!
Go Penn State.
Hugs...Jeanne
PS. We were in Jax for the FL. - GA game. It was great. We won Big!
I wonder if there is a chance FL. will play you for the National championship this year? Hmmmmmmm.
The sky is not blue and white. It is grey and that way most days here in Holland. :)
Hugs ~

Hi Sweetie:
I like Penn State. I have lots of relatives in Pa. Blue is sooo pretty.
Nancy
Good Morning Sweetie (oh what a lovely name) So nice to meet you and your family.
Football is not a big hit like in the U.S. but I know how much you all like it.
I'm so sorry to hear about your daughter Sherry Jo. I tried to read about it but it won't allow me. My heart feels sick about it.
Your family is beautiful and so many Grandchildren...you look way to young for that!!.
Have a great day and thanks for visiting me and Barbie.
Claudie from Canada
Thank you for visiting my Blue Monday. Happy Blue Monday to you!
Hi Sweetie,
How fun to have fun blue to follow and enjoy in your state. I really love college football. Our team in Washington is just so painfully bad this year :0(
I read a book a long time ago, I think it was called "Something for Joey" about a football player at Penn state whose little brother gets cancer. It talks about your coach in it and I remember thinking then what a good guy he must be. I'll have to pull the book out again and read it.
What a sweet blue monday post!
good for you for being such a fan. We're USC people over here. I had to laugh about your mention of tailgating and such. That is exactly what my hubbs was doing Saturday morning/afternoon. lol
Happy Blue Monday to you and have a fantastic day!
Wow! Beaver Stadium is huge -107,000 seats! I'm a Minnesota Golden Gophers fan (I know, nothing to brag about....and not a serious one at that though) but I hope you have a Happy Blue Monday! ~ Robyn
I certainly never meant to bring you pain with my post. You're in my prayers daily. I pray that they find who did this to your sweet daughter. I cannot even begin to imagine your pain and suffering. Your love for your family shines through in every post you do. God bless you Sweetie, I know this anniversary will be a rough one and I'll keep praying that there will be a break in the case so that your heart can be at peace about your beloved daughter.
What a fun Blue Monday Post. I just loved it. Football is big all around the country! Have a great week.
Do you mean he outdid "The Bear"?
Happy Blue Monday!
I love it that your a big fan of college football. But, I'll say it loud and proud, I'm a Gator Fan. I have a funny story , I know someone that has a relative in prison in Pennsylvania, they just say he's at Penn State. LOL
Hugs,
Chris

Hi there Sweetie..
Your post today was great. How perfect that your states college football teams colors are blue and white. Thanks for the sweet comment you left on my blog about my teapots. I love them too and can't seem to keep myself from buying more when I find ones I really like. They don't just collect dust either. I use them all of the time. If you are ever visting in Minnesota, I would love to meet you in person and have you over for tea. That would be so much fun!!
