Parker's Football Season

November 2018

Parker had a great football season.  In addition to working his tail off during summer workouts and the football season, he began drinking protein shakes to gain weight.  I think this year in particular he really learned to play aggressively on the field.  He was moved to a new position, outside linebacker.    Here are a few pictures that Grandpa took.

I'm not sure that Parker is in this shot but I wanted to include a picture of his team.  

Park, #20, had several sacks this season.

I personally appreciated that he wore one sleeve on his leg.  They played in
huge stadiums and it helped me spot him when I was having trouble.

I love to see that focus in his eyes!

Grandpa was not happy that he could not get down on the field at Ratliff.
When Parker played in Midland at Grande, Grandpa slipped onto the field and
took pictures before he left for a seminary training meeting.  He's looking good
in his white shirt and tie!

Tanner's last game was on November 6th and it was sunny and 80°.  Parker's
game was two days later  and it was FREEZING.  I think it was 45° with rain, mist, and a windchill factor that brought it down another 10°.  Here is Parker's cheering section minus Grandpa who took the picture.
