It's High School Football Season in our house!

Yes, it is the first day of Fall/Autumn.  No, here in the Houston-area our highs are still in the 90's.  Yes, our lows at night and in the morning are in the 70's, thank you, Lord, for the small reprieves each day.  I know the coaches are grateful for even 90's; however, that still gets stifling with the humidity and lack of wind some days.

Where does Matt spend 95%+ of his time 7-days-a-week?!  When he isn't teaching his engineering classes, he is coaching football on the field and in coach's meetings watching film, strategizing, and game-planning.

Go Taylor Mustangs!!

This week, actually tonight, starts the district games!  We need start out vs. Strake Jesuit.  So if you feel the urge cheer on the Mustangs tonight and they keep up the fight and strive to add a W to their record and start off district play the right way!

More to come on not only Mustang football, but Aggie football (we are ready to BTHO OSU tomorrow!!) and Colts football (we miss you Peyton, but still love the rest of the Colts and know they can get a W!).  I can't forget to mention my husbands team, the Cavaliers!  No, he didn't graduate from UVA, but it is where he wanted to attend and has been a fan of the university for years.  So, I'm now a UVA fan, well, when they aren't playing the Aggies, that is!  

Remember to pray for all coaches in all realms of football this season, but also pray for their families.  Many may just have a wife, like in our case, but many have children too.  Not only is it a busy time for the coaches, but also for their families as they support their husband/dad in his career and love of the game.  The coaches are such mentors to the players and other coaches, but they are also that to their families.  A lot of time is spent at a football field by the families too, while time away from football is limited.  Pray for strength, endurance, and joy during this wonderful time of year!  

Philippians 4:13 - I can do all things through Christ who strengthens me!  Yes, that means anything!

Happy, Blessed, and Joyful Friday to all of you!!
