Summer = Watermelon

Tonight Tiffany and I packed sandwiches for the girls and headed to Carrollton for some football practice watching and watermelon eating. (Of course I forgot to take my camera.) To give you a little background on the school where Chris is coaching, it is a Carroll County High School that was consolidated several years ago. Every night after practice Chris has to run a bus route to get the kids home up to 25 miles away from the school. Most players do not have cars or parents that are willing to pick them up from practice. There was a survey done on the players and out of 35 only 5 had male figures in the household living with them. These boys need these coaches and football alot more than football needs them. Tonight after a long Saturday practice we had watermelon waiting on them, and OH MY GOODNESS I have never seen boys tear into some fruit the way they did. Of course our girls loved it too and came home very sticky and dirty. It was such a simple treat for the guys, and they really appreciated it.
