Apple Orchard

Fall isn't fall without a trip to the apple orchard! As always we had a blast and it was the perfect day to go!

Set your goals high, and don't stop till you get there!!!

And that is what you did Bailey William!

As your biggest fan I am so proud of you Bailey through every rollercoaster ride you have endured, u set a goal and you achieved that goal! I love your drive and determination and you didn't let anything get in your way! With that being said let me brag on you a bit!

Bailey started flag football in 1st grade, anxiously awaiting to play tackle football which he started in 3rd grade. He started off the first 2 years playing quarterback. This year he decided that he wanted to run the ball more and try out for running back on offense. Bailey William the running back! He may not be the fasted, but he sure can barrel through those kids and gain yardage! I guess they call it stiff arming those kids to knock them down before they get to him, alittle football lingo I guess!

So the pictures are from the home game we had against Hayfield, we ended up tying the game, but the kids played hard. This last Saturday we went to Waseca for a tournament. The first game we lost 12-18, but won our second game 6-0.

The second game is where Bailey's goal comes into play, his goal was since he started RB position was to score a touchdown and that HE did! Along with the other kids on the team, Bailey was on fire through the entire game! He had over 100 yards of rushing, of course his touchdown, several tackles and sacks! Now tell me that I shouldn't be proud of him, I was and still am beyond proud of that kid and honestly I can't help but smile every time I think of that game! Not only because he played excellent but because he made a goal and he worked so hard at achieving that goal without giving up or being hard on himself! For that Bailey William I am so proud of you!

With all that being said, Saturday was the 5th grades last game, it was a fun season and I loved every minute of the practices and games and the many miles that we put on! Bailey was asked yesterday to play with the 6th graders during their championship games. So another week of grass stains, bruises and on the go... HECK YES!!

#72 just remember these 2 things....
Arriving at one goal, is the starting point to another!

Know your limits, but never stop trying to exceed them!
