Our Trip to Watch Tolar in Playoff game



 

We are on our way to Springtown Texas to watch the first round of the playoffs for our Son's football team, Tolar Rattlers. We stopped in college Station and had breakfast with our granddaughter, Colleen who had just turned 21 on Wedneday, we enjoyed our visit very much. We shopped some and she got some ornaments for her Christmas tree. We then went to Waxahahachie to deliver some furniture, that George had refinished for Mark and Brenda Scherbeck. We visited with them for awhile and then on to the game site. We arrived early and then there was the team coming right after us.  We got to see our son and his boys getting ready for the game. It was one of the best football games I have seen in years.  They were evenly matched and played a good clean game.  Went in to overtime and the Eagles were able to kick a field goal.  We got the ball and they took a chance from 17 yards out and threw a pass and were able to score a touchdown and that advanced them to the regionals.  Next Friday at 2 P.M. in Saginaw, Texas.  Go Rattlers.

Think most of Tolar showed up to greet and eat with the boys.

 How long will it take to get the smile off his face?
