Football!

There have been many movies, books, and even television series centered around high school football - especially Texas high school football.

Yesterday was Janni's first introduction to the wonderful world of "Friday Night Lights." On Thursday.

We drove to the other side of Houston to watch the Kingwood Mustangs take on Elsik. Though the outcome was not to our liking the game was fun to watch. It was Hailey's first time to cheer at a varsity football game, which she really seemed to enjoy, despite the relentless heat.

Janni said the experience - complete with the band, drill team, etc. - was unlike anything they have in Germany. He loved it. And that's a good thing. Pretty much every weekend between now and Thanksgiving will contain a Kingwood football game. Of course Tom will also do his duty as a host father and make sure Janni gets to watch plenty of college football as well. (Mainly the Huskers...)

 Kingwood TOUCHDOWN!! Yay!!!

(Unfortunately this was followed by two Elsik touchdowns. Oh well.)

Next Friday night he will get to experience a HOME football game - on a Friday. Should be fun!
