End of year Football Party

On Dec. 1st Ryan had his end of year football party at CiCi's. Ryan was so excited about getting to hang out with all of his football buddies. The party was short and simple. The boys ate, then played a few games and were given their trophies. This was a special year for many reason. First and foremost this was the boys last year in the peewee league (Yay!) and secondly this year turned out to be one of the wettest and best season (3rd place). The 6th Grade American Webb Bears started out started out strong, faltering at times, but now matter the outcome of the game, those boys always played an exciting game.

As Coach Lee gave out the trophies he also had a few nice words to say about each player. He said: Michael was the heart of the team, always giving each play his all. Jake was dedicated, no matter sickness nor injury was going to stop him from coming to practice or playing in a game. Mo he was a pleasure coaching and watching him grow up. Ryan for the past 3 yrs he's watched him grow as a player and a leader on the team, especially this year. He stepped up to play center and always worked hard, sometimes only getting a few minutes to rest in between plays. He will do great if he continues to play football.

I'm sad to see the season end because I'm the typical football mom. I love the game, but most of all I love watching my Ryan having a good time, banging around on the football field.
