Bulldogs Win!!

This past week was crazy but great! Justin and I got a lot done around the house, so that was nice. Justin also had all his finals last week, and is thrilled to be done for a month. We think he did well, and I am glad he finished and passed all his classes!
On Saturday Justin's brother, Neil, played in the Oregon State Football Championship... and won! They beat Glencoe 34-7! Neil looked amazing too! He even had an interception towards the end at a crucial point when the other team was about to score. We are so proud of him, he is such an amazing football player. We're sure he'll be All-State Defensive Player of the year again. We then went to Justin's parents for a steak dinner in celebration. His brothers from Wyoming and California came to see it, and his sister came down from Salem. It was nice to have so many there in support of Neil, and I know he loved having them there too.

Neil's high school gave out awards on Sunday night, so Justin and I went to a banquet for the team. Unfortunately the event was a big waste of time. They didn't hardly talk about the players individually, and all they said about Neil was his name. We were really upset and annoyed with the coaches for their lack of appreciation and recognition. Justin and I plan to write a letter to the principal, athletic director, and coach about the poor quality of the event.

Well, that was our weekend in a nutshell... hope yours was great!
