Queen Creek High versus Higley High is the biggest rivalry of our football season! It's always a crazy game with a crazy turnout of students and fans, this year was no exception! We weren't about to miss this one! Joe and I and all of our kids plus my mom and Karalee and Kinlee were all there. (Aaron coaches for Higley, sorry Aaron!) It was a great game until half way through the 3rd quarter when it started to sprinkle. Being the fans that we are, we didn't let a little rain scare us away from a game we were currently winning, so we sat tight in the stands. Little did we know, the sprinkles were just the beginning. Before long the rain started pounding down and lightening became frighteningly close. When both teams headed for the locker rooms, that was our clue go somewhere besides those tall lightening rods called bleachers. That was it, everyone had the same thought as us at precisely the same time. It was seriously worse than leaving a D-Backs game. By the time we reached the car we were SOAKED to the bone and then had to wait in the parking lot for 40 minutes to exit toward home! What an grand adventure!!! How can anyone be upset about rain in Arizona???
****The game was rescheduled for Saturday morning where we beat Higley in overtime! GO BULLDOGS!
I'm still waiting to see pics from you European vacation. Although this soaking wet family photo is pretty darn good. :)
