Football Star in the family.....

Not to brag, but our Grandson Tyler, who lives in Wichita, is doing excellent in football. Where high school football is taken very seriously and 16,000 fans attend the weekly games, Tyler, a sophomore, is the varsity quarterback. Though the team defense is still working on their game, Tyler has his down.

Tyler has been invited to play in the National All-Star High School Football Game this January in San Antonio, Texas. It is extremely rare that they invite a sophomore to play at that game.

Way to go, Tyler, keep up the great work, we are so proud of you.

Love ya lots!

Grandpa Cary and Grandma Kathy
