Last Football Game

Cora's first football season came to an end Saturday, as her Chiefs won their final playoff game and had a lot of fun doing it. (They had lost their first playoff game earlier in the week, so the Chiefs' victory was in the consolation bracket.)
Cora played well, and pulled a couple of more flags in the process. I'm so grateful to the assistant coach's wife for her excellent video skills throughout the season! She also shared with me some of these photos, like the one here of Cora receiving her medal.

We are so proud of Cora, for starting a brand new sport, competing against all boys, and proving herself a valuable member of her team. 

Every week, we'd hear other parents complimenting Cora (or us) on her play.

Here's Cora and Coach Dwayne, who was always patient and supportive.

We had the team party at Toppers after the game.























Then, we did a bit of shopping, and stopped at a new place called the Pie Tin, which specializes in savory and sweet pies. We bought an apple pie as a special treat.
In the evening, we went into Old Newhall for the Christmas Tree lighting ceremony event. Violet and Cora signed Christmas cards to send to our troops.
