We had a gorgeous weekend! Football fills up most of the weekends in the fall. High school on Friday, college on Saturday, and NFL on Sunday. S went to their high school game on Friday. It was away so M stayed home. They both went to Fifth Quarter at church after the game. Fifth Quarter is something our church just started doing this year. Every Friday they have high schoolers (no matter what high school or church) get together from 10-12 after the football games. This Friday they had a bonfire. Quite a few kids show up and it's a great alternative to what they might otherwise be getting into.
Saturday Hubby and M helped a family from our church move. About a month ago there was a family (Dad and 4 kids) who went to the Gulf Coast for the weekend. The dad and 11 year old son were caught in a rip current. The 19 year old daughter got the boy out, but couldn't save the dad. Four kids lost their dad on vacation. I can't stand to think about it. The 11 year old is one of Mr. C's good friends from school. Anyway the grandma goes to our church and is now raising the kids. Hubby and M were helping to move the kids' things out of their house and into grandma's. (If you're wondering where the mom is, she passed away last year from cancer.)
Back to football. Auburn and LSU both won and are the only undefeated teams left in the SEC. M goes for LSU and S goes for Auburn. They play each other next weekend. In the NFL the Colts won! We don't always get to see the Colts on TV, but we did get this game. I hope they have a chance to heal up over the next two weeks and get more of their starting players back on the field. They haven't looked right this year.
Hubby, Mr. C, and I got out and walked the nature trail in town on Sunday. We saw lots of great egrets, turtles, and a few blue herons. I forgot to take the camera so you'll have to use your imagination. Overall we had a good weekend.
