Football Game



Tonight we went to watch our friends son play in a High School game in Enterprise! We had a great time! Colten loved the cheer leaders the most, I think. He'd clap and get all excited when they did their back flips down the half of the field!  We plan to go again next week, I'm looking forward to it. 
This is the high school that was hit by the F-5 tornado in '07 and was destroyed. 8 people were killed, and it is still a very sad subject for folks around here. You see stickers supporting Enterprise High all over the place here, and when people talk about it, they still get sad. We moved here a few months after it happened, and I'd been working for a catering company on Post when the school had their prom at the O Club. It was not a happy night for anyone, it seemed. It was a devastating experience, so to see their football team play was great! They just had their new school built. This game wasn't at the school, but hopefully one of them will be so we can go and see it. They highlighted it on the news about the first day at their new school. It was wonderful to see them all smiling, and happy for a new beginning.
