Preston's Football and George's Shop

On Veteran's Day, Preston's team, the Roughriders, participated in a play-off game. The winner would play in a Super Bowl on Saturday (yesterday) to determine a 3rd and 4th place winner, and the game would be on the Gainesville High School football field. The Roughriders won their Veteran's Day game and we had a blast! Then yesterday, they played in the Super Bowl but lost which put them in 4th place.

Unfortunately, all the pictures I took yesterday did not come out. I am so disappointed because I had pictures of Preston holding up his cute little trophy. 

There is good news though. At the end of the game yesterday, the coach told them that they still have another game to play. No one knew about it so it was a surprise! This Saturday, the 22nd, they will play another 4th place (in Lewisville) so I guess perhaps they are following a region or division thing. 

It was sooo cold yesterday too--the wind chill was in the 30's. Crystal, Geo and me were huddled next to a brick wall sitting on cement steps throughout the game. Michael works the down sticks on the sidelines so he had to stand out in it but I doubt it bothered him as much as it did us.

GEORGE'S SHOP
At long last, it's being framed for the concrete to be poured. He had some concrete guys working on it Friday and they'll be back tomorrow. PROGRESS! Yay!
