So here we are watching Winston Churchill Bulldogs Football on Thursday night. This is Coleson's High School team. Unfortunately they lost once again but it was a great game. They were playing really good at the beginning but somewhere along the line they lost their mojo. The score was something like 43-26 for the Chinook Coyotes.
Raelynn and Mike. Raelynn has been enjoying the football games this year. I'm sure I enjoyed watching boys running around in tight pants at that age too. ;)
And here we are.....the fearless leaders of our Dyck clan.....of the Lethbridge chapter. That night was a nice evening. We're usually in toques, mitts and heavier jackets.
When we grew up in southern Manitoba, football was not a popular sport and I knew absolutely nothing about it. Since Coleson has been playing, I've been learning and enjoying it. We encouraged Coleson to play when the opportunity came to him last year. He has never played before but he loves it. Mike and I played plenty of sports as youngsters and it's not just the sport itself that is so enjoyable, it's the camaraderie the team shares.
Great. However I am sooooooo glad our last grandson doesn't play football! Don't get me wrong, I have and am a Stampeder Fan since 1963, at that age I didn't mind sitting in the cold. But then we moved to Lethbridge! Now these old dames bones just don't like the wind. Love your post.
ReplyDeleteYep, I know where you're coming from. There's only so and so much a woman can take at my age too. I keep telling myself "don't be a suck, you're from Manitoba for crying out loud".
