On to Level 3!


I will have an ulcer before this is all over. All day long I feel sick and have butterflies. The begining of the game made me even a more nervous wreck because Wild Rose scored first and with great ease. That's where is ended. The first quarter was 7-7. We then came back and won 42-20. The last two opposing TD's occured when our Freshman were in. Cole had a great game and even had a wonderful QB sack. Unfortunately another team mate got announced for it but Cole did get credit for it on the team stats sheet, per my on field spy aka Dad. Dad did a wonderful job on the field again. I just always worry he'll get tackled. He went to the end zone to catch an extra point ball and didn't realize until it was over it was Cole. After the game one of the families had a party for all the team and parents. They own Michelle's restraunt so it was a wonderful place to have it. A lot of parents who don't normally go out after the game showed up so that was nice.


The down side to the game was that one of older (80) fans got assulted by the other team. We were told during the game by the kids that the fans were terrible. This gentleman and his family were sitting on the opposite side of the fields because it is more convient for this man to use. He is a very quiet man and does not have anyone playing on the team until next year. The kids went over to visit him and the fans were nasty to them then. This poor man was knocked down several times and ended up dislocating his shoulder. What was wrong with these people and no one tried to stop the attack. At the party the kids were telling us things the fans were saying to them. Come on! it's highschool football.


We also had a Halloween scare on Friday night. We heard a ton of sirens and then the flight for life 'copter go over our house. It was shining it's search lights in our yard looking for a place to land. Now this all seems pretty exciting except for the fact it happened at 11:41 at night and Cole was on his way home. Heart attack city. Bill calls him on his phone to find out where he was and we get "WHAT! I'm coming home now!" Ok pretty hard to be upset with the kids when you know he's ok. Cole got to the 4-way stop sign by our house and the road was blocked he asked permision to go through and told the police where he lived. The Police told him he better not go past there or they would come after him. There was an accident down the road from us where a 27 year old guy hit a tree driving to fast and was drunk. A couple of minutes later and he could have met Cole down the road. Let's just say lots of prayers were said.
