It’s a trap! The girls rolled, but the boys…well, they landed on the field like a wet cow pie in the pasture. Not much went well for Number 2 and the boys. Perhaps still hungover from the win vs. Middle Creek, a canceled practice due to weather, and a whole lot of overconfidence meets a team with nothing to lose… well, that, my friends, is a recipe for disaster. The Varsity boys fell to the Ashley Screaming Eagles last night on a last-second goal and final score of 10-11. Number 3 and the girls bounced back in a big way, though, with a 17-6 victory! In our split-team assignments, the wife had the more enjoyable experience. 3 played well, and it is good to see. Now, a short break to nurse some wounds, and it’s back at it Friday.
As a reminder, Lunch Box Quotes are notes I include in the kids’ lunches every day. Number 1 gets a text, but 2-4 get handwritten napkins.
