Friday Night Lights

I don't even know how we got here so quickly.  All those years of city league football, freshman year football and all of a sudden his high school years of playing are now over and done.  He's been playing this sport most of his life and suddenly he'll probably never play it again.  And just like that, it's over.

It was a fun ride while it lasted and I have enjoyed watching every single game.

Cade was chosen as a captain along with Kobe Carter - Luke DeGraffenreid - Zaylun Fenn - & Easton Cook.  Two more captains were quickly added: Clay Lyman and Jackson Eyre.

This final game against Springville will always be remembered.  It was our last game.  It was a fight right to the very end with us loosing at the last minute.  And it was played in a complete downpour.  The field was one giant muddy mess and the boys had a BALL playing in it!

Hunting Season and Cade's FIRST Deer

Las Chalitas Alumni Dinner

As part of Spanish Fork High School's Homecoming week, the Las Chalitas Drill Team hosted an alumni dinner before the game.  It was really fun to go with not only a bunch of my friends that I danced with in high school, but also my mom, mother in law, and nieces Katelyn, Averi and Gracie who were all Las Chalitas!

 

Homecoming Week

Homecoming week was full of events at our house!  The cheerleaders put up all the door signs for the football players, and of course they had more signs around the school too.  Then they had the Skyhawk Rally.  Only this was unlike any rally we've had in years past.  The students from each class who participated were volunteers rather than being selected.  It was held inside the gym instead of out on the football field.  The games were different but still fun.  Mark & Crystal Martin and Kevin & Patty Ashcraft came in from Vegas and California to stay with us.  Cade celebrated his big 18th birthday.  Sadly the letterman's jacket that we ordered months in advance was still not in - thank you stupid covid for STILL holding things up.  So we resorted to giving him some money and a couple shirts.  Grandma Gloria and Cade's girlfriend Halle came in clutch with fun gifts.  Then of course we had the Homecoming football game, which unfortunately we lost.  Then Cade and Halle went to the Homecoming dance.  We hosted the dinner at our house and it turned out perfect!
