Wildcat Wives!

Katie Galusha, Vanessa Berna and Cassi Dunnam- enjoying the Girls Night Out!

Last week I moved out the furniture and set up tables and chairs for the annual 'girls night out'

that I give each year to the football coaches wives.


I looked forward to this event all year long. Gathering up inexpensive treasures to fill up these vintage locker baskets.





The menu was planned early in the week:

A colorful salad of red cabbage, fresh pineapple, cilantro, green onion, fresh peppers.
King Ranch Chicken w/ guacamole and Julio's chips
Black Beans
Vanilla ice cream with Hot Fudge and toasted pecans


Anything that could be made ahead of time was. (I'm not much fun when I get frazzled)

A special thanks to my organized sister for the fifty phone calls I made for help. She's a jewel!




We had a wonderful evening getting aquainted...such a lovely group of ladies. Sipping Limeade and Fresca through striped paper straws, Coach Spradlin, by my request gave us a 'pep talk' and encouraging words to help us through the months ahead.





We laughed and chatted for several hours. Plotting and planning some future fun.

And when it was time to go home, we were friends. A sisterhood of coaches wives. Ready and excited to cheer the Wildcats on to success. I hope you won't mind if we standing up and cheer a lot!

We're big fans of our husbands and respect what they do. We're excited for the young men they coach and their future lives that will be directly influenced by their hard work and lessons learned. So you can count on us to make lot's of noise at the games because we're convinced that there is a lot to cheer about!

First Scrimmage Tonight!

It's been a busy past few months. A lot has happened since Coach Spradlin, arrived in Temple, last February. A new staff is in place. The kids have worked hard, all summer long. The administration has been awesome. The community, amazing! We couldn't be happier! The team is stronger. A lot of progress has been made. The Wildcat's first game is next Friday in Pfluggerville. Needless to say the team is excited and getting ready to take the field.

Tonight, the Freshman, JV and Varsity will scrimmage in Wildcat Stadium. It's going to be plenty warm but you might want to come on out and watch the team. Varsity will start about 7:00.

Thanks, in advance, for encouragement and support! Go Wildcats!

Chillin'!

Today was the first day of the 2011 football season. Coaches met at 5:30.
Players at 6:00…some were early and suited up by 5:45. It was still dark.
At 6:20, the temperature was 80 degrees, that when practice officially began.
Enthusiasm was in the air as 150 JV/Varsity players divided into their
respective groups. Scattered all over the practice field everyone was moving.
Drills were crisp. Everyone seemed excited. Hopeful. Definitely worth
getting up for! I’m so glad I went.

(X’s & O’s on our chalkboard coffee table).

I don’t much about football but I know a lot about relationships and that’s
what the game of football is all about. It’s also about discipline,
hard work, sacrifice and investment.

(Flying Tackle, a gift from Clint and Jenny).

That’s why I’m a fan of the game.
The combination of all of the above, properly applied, will transform
a life forever.

(A new message is on the chalkboard on our porch.)

I love football.
