State Champs!

Last Saturday we traveled across the state to Tacoma to watch our Tigercats play for the state football championship. The kids were so excited to get there, they could hardly stand it! The boys provided for an exciting and gut-wrenching night of football. With a 2 point lead, 64-62 with just 1:10 to go, Justin intercepted the ball to regain posession and run out the clock for a victory. We were so proud of Justin and the entire team. They truly played their hearts out! This was the boys' 5th state championship in the past 7 years! It has been an incredible run!!!

Besides the big win, the night was just great fun! We were joined by our Prosser friends Lolli, Blake, Jenna, and Lauryn as they took their first look at 8-man football. A little different from the 11-man game they are use to! It is always wonderful to travel to the West side and see Uncle Norm, Aunt Barb, Kari, Nate, Cailyn and Jane as well. Everyone saw a great night of football.

Here are the proud cousins with Justin after the game (11 pm or so)!

Notice the very cool eye black they are all sporting!

And, no he doesn't normally have a mohawk...it was a team thing! Abree has been just disgusted with him for doing that to his hair. She just couldn't believe that he would do that.

A few dads even got in on the head shaving, not so attractive. When Uncle Jeff got his mohawk, Abree was really mad at him. She would walk by and elbow him, it was hilarious!

GO 'CATS!!!
