ECS

We are thankful for the ECS community and how great they have been to us.  We kicked off our 2nd year at ECS with a faculty and staff night at the Redbirds game.  We all had a blast!

Next stop - kicking off the football season at the scrimmage.  There is nothing better than watching my kids at the football games cheering for thier daddy and their faces lighting up when he spots them and acknowledges them in the stands and brings them down to the field.  Priceless!

We spent most of the season on the "hill" with the other football coaches wives.  Madison Claire continued to be more excited to see James than the actual game and towards the end of the season would start asking me days in advance when she was going to get to see James. 

It was a fun season - but one of ups & downs.  We ended the regular season at 5-5, but the official record was 4-6 because we had to forfeit a 41-7 win becuase an ineligible player played in the last quarter without us knowing he was ineligible.  Ryan continued to coordinate the defense and despite the record, they played well -  4 of the losses were by a total of 13 points, which basically means there were a lot of really close games.  The highlight was making it into the playoffs with a first round bye and home field advantage despite their record.  Because they had to forfeit the game, that all hung in the balance the last game of the season - we were at the mercy of the outcome of the SBEC & FACS game.  Praise the Lord SBEC won that game so we remained in first place in the district - WOO HOO!!
