Brad and I traveled to Grantsville on Thursday to watch Nate play football. We picked up Tonya and MacKenzie and headed out for the hour and a half drive. We would make a stop at the Despains to make some deliveries and pick up Jacob then off to the game. Amy and Danny would join us later. Tonya was a bit concerned that he would once again be sidelined. She knew that he would get to be in on the opening kick-off but not how much more he would play. It was great ---- he really got to participate a goodly amount. We could recognize him easily because of the white bands on his pants. (He told me that was because he had on the smallest pants they had and they were still too big to hold up his pads so they used tape to secure them in place. He may not be as big as some of the other players in size but his spirit and determination are every bit as big. His number is 35. Now Nate said he knew I would probably blog this but ----- yes I WILL. Nate made a great tackle on Grantsville's number 23. OOPS!!!! oh my they have a girl on their team. Poor Nate has been harassed so much. He did say she was cute though. If she wants to be in the game ---- open for a great tackle. Nate also was just inches away from a great interception. His fellow player right behind him was just those few inches taller needed to capture the ball. Great game even if the referees really tried to let Grantsville win. DIDN'T WORK----the Bear River JV Boys pulled off a great win. Season for them is now over.
Nate rode home with us ---- but first we needed to make a stop at MacDonald's for some food. It was really a fun afternoon.
