4-0

Jacob's Sophomore football team is 4-0. We played our district rival last week and we won! I was just as excited for Jacob to beat this team as I was when Matthew's Varsity team beat them! Unfortunately this game doesn't count, except for the bragging rights until we play them again at their place. This game was a filler game for a team who cancelled on us. Hopefully we can play just as well next meeting and have the same outcome!
We got poured on for some of the game. Luckily it didn't last the whole game or there wouldn't be as many pictures

The half time score. We started off down 0-10, but changed our defense and the offense quit turning the ball over.

He didn't block it, but they didn't make it either

With under a minute left, Jacob tackles the guy and knocks the ball out


A happy dad and the guy next to him is Jacob's  Jr High  coach and the guy next to him was his Youth football coach.

And we pick off the pass! Jacob is behind the guy who made the interception and in that chaos, Jacob got hit hard in the shin.

Jacob grabbing his leg. It is still sore, but he is ok to play!

WE WON!!! NOT IN OUR HOUSE!

There are a bunch of happy people wearing maroon! (The people in red weren't as happy)

Another Shut Out

Jacob's team had another shut out. It was a very warm 99 degrees outside for this game and felt warmer on the field. Jacob's team has only given up 7 points in three games. This last win was exciting because they are a tough team and their Varsity team is ranked 4th in the state of Texas, but we stepped up and beat them!!

Weddings

Many of Brittney's friends have been getting married and she has been a bridesmaid in some of them. Her best friend Chantel Bartholomew got married On September 7th in the Mount Timpanogos Temple. Brittney was a little sad that she hat to miss the BYU v University of Texas game, but she loves her friend more than football! Her friend Crystal got married a few months earlier in the Salt Lake Temple and Brittney was a bridesmaid in her wedding also.Both Crystal and Chantel are from Katy, Texas! Here are a few pics from those weddings/
