Football is Over! WOO-HOO!

Well, football is finally over! I seemed like a very long season of practices and Saturday games. Joshua's team finished 3rd in their conference. They concluded the season with a great game beating Greenbrier (a team who had previously beat them) at the playoffs in Heber Springs. Congratulations to Joshua! I am very proud of him and all the hard work he put in. He had quite the learning curve trying to play Arkansas football. All of his teammates have dads who eat, drink, and live football and we just don't. They have also been playing together for a couple of years in this tiny town and he was the new kid. He had lots of things to overcome, and came out of it having a great year and getting a decent amount of playing time. I am very proud of him. Next comes basketball. We have already started practice. His first game is this weekend, but he will be in Colorado for an orthodontist appointment. That means a free Saturday for mom before the basketball schedule takes over our Saturdays again. Neely also had a very successful season as the ONLY 6th grade football cheerleader. She was a hit! Joshua at his awards banquet with Coach John.
