I am a huge high school football fan. I don't know what it is. The feel of fall in the air, the sound of tackles and helmets or the roar of the crowd when something big happens, or the pure pride in playing for your school. There is just something about high school football that brings a smile to my face. Last year I was so dedicated to the Hunter Wolverines football team, I hardly missed a game. Well, I still love them but when it comes right down to it, I bleed black and orange. This is the year of the Savages and number 52 is in our midst!!! It is so fun to watch Josh (who is only a junior so we still have one more year to watch him) play so many different positions and to have such a huge role on the team. As starting center, he makes things happen. As starting outside linebacker on defense he just gets to hit hard, and a lot! And as PAT/field goal kicker, he tacks on those little points that tend to be crucial to a football game. He played awesome against long time rival Snake River Panthers. Though they got us in the end, it was not a game that showed how the Savages can truly play. But, Josh did great and I am excited for his continued hard work and success. Now, every Friday of course a Hunter Wolverines shirt will be worn but, I feel that the orange and black of the Savages and bearing the number 52 may just be more important!
A few weekends ago, Tyler, Sara and I made the quick trip to Blackfoot to watch Josh play Snake River. 2 extra surprises walked through the front door of the Hansen home when Emily and Brooklyn walked in! It was so fun to see them and oh so sad to see them leave again. Bozeman is too far and my niece (and sis and brother in law) are way to far away! Brooklyn is growing like a weed and is so cute and so fun.
Tyler was wonderful sporting the orange and black Savages shirt. He kept saying, "I am here to cheer for Josh" And that he did! Who would have thought that he would see quite a few people he knew and had to explain why he was wearing the orange and black rather than the purple of Snake River.
