Wow - I thought I'd never be able to access my blog again - it keeps telling me I'm signed in somewhere else. So anyway - wanting to find something for
Beverly's Pink Saturday I thought this purple picture on the Tron or whatever it's called had a pink look to it at dusk right before kick off.
Round Rock Cedar Ridge played San Antonio MacArthur at our home stadium for the "Up and Coming" game. "Up and Coming" not "homecoming" because there's no alumni to come home! My grandson started as a sophomore in a brand new school and is now a senior in the first class that will graduate from Cedar Ridge. What an exciting game. We had the lead most of the first half. And then part of our fabulous band and Royalty presenting the Royal Court.
Our Award Winning band is huge:
Here they are forming CRHS.
After a nerve racking second half where we went back and forth....CR took the lead with 37 seconds left
And thinking it was won SA answers with a touchdown and extra point of their own with 4 seconds left sending the game into overtime…and then double overtime!
But in the end with the Raiders one point behind after the touchdown they make the gutsy choice to run the two extra points.
My grandson is the long snapper for field goals, extra points and plays defense and played a fabulous game. That's him in the middle #52. As soon as the game ends the team runs to the sidelines and the band plays their Alma Mater for them and I don't know why but it makes me cry every time I see this. I'm glad they don't realize that time is fleeting and these halcyon days will soon be a distant memory.
Okay now that I've made you sit through the game recap I'll share some of the mums - random cutees who let me take pictures to show you!
FYI - the lady in the background? Her shirt says "Flock" - it's the new band routine - I
know...the first time I saw it I was like "What the flock?"
So that's it for me from Your Crafty Little Page Sports Center!This is Longhorn Nan signing out!
