Do Or Die Football Game

This is a photo of Coach Smith pre-game. Right after I took this picture I heard someone ask him if he was ready to start the game. His reply was, "I was born ready!"
Brent was trying to help the guys get lined up to go onto the field. He had a great time coaching again.

I can't believe I haven't posted anything since last Thursday, but it isn't because there hasn't been anything going on. We just finished up an extremely weird week. Brent was gone all week because he was coaching at the Do Or Die football game in Quincy. They had practices everyday, so he stayed in Quincy with some friends. The game was Saturday night, so my friend Niki and I went over to watch his team. They ended up winning the game, although it had to be called because of lightning. I'm sure his team would have won even if they had played out the game. Two of our friends from Carthage, Joel and Vian, came over to watch the game and it was a good time. After the game, Niki and I went on to Joel and Vian's house and spent the night and went to church in Keokuk the next day. It was fun to take Niki to our old church and let her hear the praise band. She had a good time and loved the music! Yeah!!! We didn't go through Kahoka this trip (sorry Kahoka friends! ). It just couldn't be worked out this time partly due to the rerouting of traffic and time constraints. I still need to apologize for not posting any pictures lately, but I guess I didn't really take any pictures last week. I'll correct that soon! (By the way, I can't e-mail right now as the Internet service is having a glitch with our account. It isn't working at the current time, but they are supposedly working on it.)
