Friday Night Lights

Friday evening of our reunion weekend found us at the Big Football Game. I capitalized everything, because I think that's really the name of it. At breakfast, we heard people near our table talking about "The Big Game" and when we ran into someone we used to know, they asked us if we were going to "The Big Game." So Friday evening, we spent the evening in true Texas style, at a highschool football game. "The Big Game" was between two rival schools, one of which was the higschool Curtis went too. Micah and Uncle Chris, watching the teams warm up. Uncle Chris was very helpful, holding extra kids for most of the game!
Benjamin was not that thrilled with the noise level in the stadium. For the whole pre game and first quarter, he cried every time something good happened, mostly because of the loud whistling. By the second quarter, he was good to go. Elizabeth was very excited to get to see where Daddy played football.
But she was even more excited about the popcorn!
Memaw and Papaw, lending another lap.
Our nephew, Justin, is in the band. Not only is he in the band, but he just recently earned first chair for tuba, in the district! Way to go Justin! We are so proud of you. Half time was lots of fun. Rider, THE team started out half time. Their "theme" for this game was, "So easy a caveman could do it" (referring to beating the rival highschool). The picture above is of the entire band acting like a bunch of cavemen! Hilarious!

To end our perfect Texas evening, our team won!
