Football highlights Bears v. Bears 27 - 6

Yep, that's right. Bears v. Bears on Saturday. Saddleback Valley Bears v. Yorba Linda Bears. Our guys called themselves the Grizzly Bears and called the other team the Panda Bears.

Greg was so anxious for his game to start. He was awake early Saturday morning and anxious to get going. Friday night after practice he complained that his stomach hurt. Still bothering him Saturday morning. I am sure it was just nerves.

When we were getting on the toll road we were right behind Colby's car. So, we followed them all the way to the park. It was a huge park with soccer and football games going on.

Greg was on defense the first half of the game. Then offense the second half. Our Bears won 27 - 6. Yorba Linda was the first to score. Colby scored 3 TD's and Gavin scored 1. Greg had some great tackles. In fact, the first TD was very early in the game. Greg chased the guy down and tackled him but he landed in the end zone for a TD.

After the game Greg told me that his stomach was still bothering him and that is why he didn't play like he normally does. Well, he still played a great game.

Most of the team met for pizza after the game and Greg enjoyed hanging out with his team mates.

Greg was so excitd that Miles, Marie and Grandma Shirley made it to the game. I did not take any pictures of the game but for a few. This is the guys all lined up for the singing of the National Anthem. They played it over the speaker before each game. Now this is the way to start a football game! Yep, I cried like I always do when I hear this song. I probably also cried a bit because I am always nervous before the kids start their games and I just love watching them play and having fun.

After pizza I found my way to Scrappin' in the Hills. A scrapbook store in Anaheim Hills, not too far away. Greg gave me a hard time about going, but I told him he could give me 15 minutes because the last 6 hours were all about football and him. Grumble grumble. But I did find some good finds at the store and I stayed very focused: football and soccer.

Greg and I were both pretty wiped out when we finally got home. Greg played some with Harrison while I got to chat with Traci and then finished putting gear away and did some reading.
