Now For Something Completely Different

In an effort to try something new--and that Genius Golfer is helping his brand new company with their convention tonight so won't be home--I'm planning on taking the kids to the HS football game tonight. It is Homecoming.

The Girl, as a member of the HS swim team, had a little say in the homecoming representative the swim team sent to the pageant, and technically she is 9th grade which should count as a high school student.

The Boy, has a lot of friends who play local pee-wee football (having played last year himself). I saw several of the boys last week when I went so I told him, he'd easily find some guys to hang out with. I think he just wants to wear his jersey and find his buddies.

We've never done anything quite like this with the kids. In fact, I can't recall taking them to a live sporting event where one of them wasn't playing. I think The Boy went to a BYU game with Grandpa Herb once...or maybe it was with cousins...but not as a family.

Besides, we have a full schedule of sports they are involved with this weekend anyway: The Girl has her Swim-A-Thon today. It is a fundraiser for the swim team where they earn money to cover their team bus, etc., by swimming the most laps they can in the class period. And tomorrow, The Boy (GG coaches the team) will play for the 7th-8th grade Boys' North County Soccer Championship. Whoo Hoo.

Here's hoping luck is spread all over this town this weekend!
