High School Football Games

Well, it's marching band season. This means I have to attend a lot of HS football games. My daughter is in the marching band and they're required to attend, of course. I enjoy it though. Her school is relatively small compared to most other public schools. I love the friendly, small-town atmosphere. And everyone loves the concession food, right? Hotdogs, nachos, popcorn, candy and soda....



At last night's game, the football players honored a former student who had died serving our country in this ongoing war. I have to say I got pretty emotional and had a hard time maintaining my composure while the band was playing The Star Spangled Banner.


I talked to my son this morning and they're doing well settling in at the base. I could hear my granddaughter in the background laying on her tricycle horn. Boy, do I miss them!


Gotta run to the grocery store and finish some shores around the house today. Hubby got up early this morning to mow our yard. I love the look of a freshly-mowed yard. :)


Thought for the day:


Dost thou love life? Then do not squander time, for that is the stuff life is made of. -Benjamin Franklin
