Friday Night Lights

Football season has begun! That means it's time to pull out all my clothes that are red, white and black - Falcon's colors!

Adam and Noah are both playing for the Falcons this year and so far it's been an exciting season!

Last weekend was the first game. JV and Varsity played a team from Anderson, South Carolina. JV won their game and the Varsity won their game! Adam scored a safety in the first quarter, sacked the quarterback and made two really good tackles!

This weekend. On Friday night, the Varsity team was up against the Kings Ridge Tigers. They won 41-0! A shut out game! All the players played a great game! Tonight (Saturday night) it was a JV game against Horizon Christian Academy. Adam and Noah played a great game! The final score for this game was 23-0! Another shut out!

We are having a blast sitting in the stands and cheering and getting pumped about the game! It's even more awesome when friends from church come and support the boys! It's like they have their own fan club! It's so much fun!

Way to go Falcons! Awesome start to the season! So proud of you all!

Start of a new school year...

So I am sure most of you are just starting school or are just about to. Or you are the lucky ones who have been in school for a little bit now! I started school yesterday and it was a long day! It usually takes about 45 minutes to drive to school, park and walk to class (parking at GSC is a nightmare!). Well yesterday it took 2 hours to get to school due to a bad wreck, therefore I missed my first class completely! Not a good way to start off the day!

But the rest of my classes were good! I like my professors so far, so hopefully that won't change!
I did however, stand in line at the bookstore four times to buy all my books! I stood in line twice to get in the bookstore and twice to purchase my books! Fun stuff ;)

"Aventuras - Primer curso de lengua espanola" - Spanish II (3:30-4:45)
