Alex finally played his first football game as a Griffin Gator A Team. It poured down rain the entire game! Alex wore #32 and it took a while to get used to seeing him in yellow & green??!! Mom & Dad and Carmen came to the game. I have to hand it to them--sitting in the rain like that--Alex knows they really love him! He started at special teams and then finally went in on defense as defensive end. He got 3 tackles and 1 sack. He played with a lot of intensity & was so excited when he made the tackles! He was jumping up & down. We were all so proud of him. He really showed he could play football-- thanks to Coach Eli and his other Wildcat coaches who taught him so much in those 6 years. The Gators trailed at the half and they didn't look so good--we were a little worried. But in the 2nd half they woke up and remembered what to do. Nahshon scored 2 td's and little Brady did a great job as the QB. Big Brady played all sides and even was the punter. The final score was Griffin 13, Fowler 7. A great start to the football season!
We had to buy some dress clothes for game days. Alex and I went shopping the other night and he picked out his tie and clothes. A handsome little man.
