This weekend, we went up to Shelby to watch Damian's younger cousin Trent play his last home football game of his high school career. We had a blast! It was chilly, so we stayed wrapped up in blankets, but the game was really good. Shelby won (yay!) against their rival, Hart. This game was especially fun to watch because there is a tradition of Omness boys playing for Shelby, starting with Damian's father and 2 uncles, and then a few cousins as well. Damian would have played for Shelby had they not moved to Lowell in middle school. We sat with Damian's Aunt Robin and Uncle Denny, cousin Travis and his wife Melissa, and cousin Hailey and her friend Dustin. Post game, we had pizza from local favorite Pizza Factory, and stayed up way too late! We also received a bag of bluegill and salmon caught by Damian's cousin and grandfather. So, we'll have a fish fry and Salmon bake (something? any good salmon recipes out there?) soon. And now, Damian is busy looking for jobs in the Shelby/Hart area, because he desperately wants to move back! I'm not so sure!
And now, pictures!They had really yummy elephant ears at the game, as evidenced by my hands in the picture. The scoreboard reads 6 to 6 (at almost the half) but the final score was 24 to 18, I believe.
Isabel looks so grown up in those pictures. Tell Damian he better not be looking for jobs in Shelby. That would be a long commute since we won't let you move.
