Regents Knights.... State Champs!

After 4 months of hard work, Regents football claimed yet another state title on Saturday! I sure have one proud hubby strutting around my house! The game was a blast, a beautiful Texas December day (75 and sunny!) and the Knights came to play! They dominated the game early on and Sammie's defense only let one touchdown by them. Final score 38-7. Charlotte had a blast at her first game before bedtime. She played pretty hard herself including the post-game party where she ate 2 whole quesadillas, chicken and rice and beans after a tiring day of cheering. Her favorite feature of the game was the endless staircase on the bleachers and we spent the whole second half going up and down. Nana, Pops and Owen joined us in Temple, we are so thankful that they drove down and joined us for our special day! JaJa and Papaw gave Charlotte and I a lift and a hand throughout the day. Sam and David's old friend Matt and his family came all the way from Houston to cheer Sammie on. It sure meant a lot to the Thompson's and Charlotte and Owen had so much fun with their adorable little girls! The day was certainly sad, Uncle David never missed a state game. We sure missed his sweet face cheering the Knights on. But we know that he was there in spirit and gave the boys an extra hand on the field.

Ready to cheer in their blue and gold!

  1. Woohoo!!! Way to go Uncle Sammie! And Aunt Carly and Charlotte - I know getting here took effort from all three of you! Wish we could have been there to cheer the Regents on!
