I went to McDonald County last night to watch the Monett Cubs play. I am the proud aunt of number 56, Kyle Doss. I even wore purple and caught some flack from people that I know. But believe me, I will proudly wear it again! The game was touch and go for a long time. The Cubs came close to scoring several times and then BAM...in the end zone they went. Boy, was there cheering from the packed guest stands. I think Monett fans outnumbered the Mc County fans. They also scored a field goal. They won 10-0. A nice W to start of the year. They will have some issues to address this week in practice, but in my expert opinion, they are fixable issues. My throat is sore from cheering and yelling throughout the game. Kyle had a great game. He played on offense and defense, which means he spent more time on the field than off the field. His right leg cramped late in the game, and they iced it for several plays, but in no time he was back in the stance ready to kick some Mustang butt. I think he did so well because he has a new haircut... a mohawk. It looks intimidating. Sorry, I didn't get any pictures of him without his helmet.
Steve is doing well. He and Amelia went to Grandma's and Grandpa's during the game. They listened to it on the radio. Today, we went to Joplin, ran errands, and ate lunch at Olive Garden. He really likes it there. When we go places like that, it really wears him out. He is resting now. While in Joplin, he and Amelia helped me go clothes shopping. I needed some new fall and winter "school" clothes. They both have much better taste than I do. Of course, I ended up with browns, greens, white and black outfits. Luckily, the place we went was having a sale and then I got an additional 15% off for being a Mary Kay customer and then I got another 10% for using their card. Big deals for me.
We have no big plans for the evening...only Mecum Auto Auction and crocheting. Relaxing evenings are best.
