This weekend was homecoming for Ben's football team, the Jackets. It started off with a pep rally on Thursday night. They served everyone hot dogs, chips, soda and cake and all the teams were introduced as well as the cheerleaders. The players and the cheerleaders also exchange gifts and all receive their garters and mums. Very cute to witness and really gets you pumped up for the big game! The game was on Saturday at 3pm and the team played at the high school which they all thought was very cool. It was exciting for them to play in such a large stadium and on AstroTurf as well. Before the game they players and us moms walked onto the field where the players were announced and they gave us moms a flower. I admit, I got a little choked up walking across the field with my boy. He's just getting so big so fast. The high school team even let them use the inflatable tunnel that the HS team runs out of. Ben was super excited to get a chance to do that. It was a proud moment for him. The team played a great game and went on to beat the Hawks 31-12. The team remains undefeated and this win sealed their place in the playoffs as well. Pretty exciting weekend for the Jackets!
Doing the "We're the Jackets" cheer.
