Football

November 9, 2020

Maxwell played tackle football this year and, overall, had a great experience. He was on the Raiders and they had a talented group of boys. He learned a lot and really enjoyed it. His team was undefeated in the first 2/3 of regular season and then didn’t hold it together for the last 2 games and got knocked out in the first round of the playoffs. Oh well, you win some, you lose some!

Maxwell really only got to play on defense. I think he only got in for 2 or 3 offensive plays. I have issues with that since they are only 10 and all need to learn but…I’ll save that opinion for another time!

I’m proud of this kid for playing hard and having a good attitude about it all!

Halloween

November 4, 2020

After a full day of fun for all the kids, it was finally time for Halloween night! The big neighborhood party this was cancelled this year so we invited just our neighbors over before trick-or-treating. We had some food for the kids so it was a good way for everyone to meet up and head out together. My crew was looking ready for the best Halloween ever!
