State Bound!

Big Screen at Cowboy Stadium

Michael's high school football team made a historic run for the State Championship this year.  Michael had a blast going to regular season & state championship games.  After winning the semi-final game in Austin, Lamar was state bound.  They headed to Dallas to play in Cowboy Stadium December 22nd.  Lucky for us, we know a few great people in Dallas & are always looking for an excuse to visit them, even just for a quick 24 hr trip  :)

Michael decorated the car and we were on our way.  It is amazing how many past and present Lamar Alumni we ran into on the trip.  It was so fun to honk and wave to each other, & run into complete strangers at Whataburger's & gas stations who strike up a conversation because of the car & their ties to Lamar.  It was great!

We drove to my brothers house where my parents met us for a fun early dinner. Then Don, Michael, Trevor, Grandpa, Bob, Alex & Ashlynn headed off to the game. Michael quickly headed off to the student section with friends & the others had a great time with each other.

The game was great but unfortunately Lamar wasn't able to come away with the win against Allen (the infamous school with the $60 Million Football Stadium!).  But it was a fantastic run & it is always fun to go to State. 

Go Redskins!!
