Football season 2022 has come to an end. We played our last game againist Baylor the day after Thanksgiving, and now we get ready for a bowl game.
This game is always a litlte bittersweet. At the beginning of the season, I'm excited and ready for the season to begin, but I'm also excited and I count down to the weeks that it's over. And then it ends, and I find myself wanting a little more football. The games are fun. The atmosphere is fun. I know what our weekend plans will be. I can predict what life will be like during the season. And when it's over, it just takes us some time to get back in to a routine again.
We headed to DJ's office about an hour before kick off to get settled. We stop for a family picture, grab some water, head to the bathroom, the girls mess with his students, and then it's game time.
DJ's dad and stepmom came down for the game too! The girls headed to the meeting rooms to play with the other kids, and then the rest of us got settled in our seats.
We made it out in time to see the senior video students on the field for senior day.
Senior day makes me cry. Every single time.
The students and players put so much work in to this program for 4 years and then it's gone. They're done. Definitely a bittersweet time.
One last coin toss before the game starts.
I took zero game pictures, but took some video instead. I was also afriad my phone would die.
Post game we headed down to the field, gave DJ a big hug, and sang the Eyes of Texas together. It's always my favorite moment after a game. Then DJ heads back inside, and the girls play on the field
They tracked down a cheerleader for a picture.
And Pops had to have his picture with her too!
We went to see Bevo. Who was not in a good mood and had his back turned toward everyone! Ha!
This girl has been great this season. She's been a huge help with the other coach's kids and with her sisters.
Megan ended her season with 30 yards of back walk overs on the field.
We headed back in and caught a glimpse of post game player interviews, and then headed to DJ's office to say bye to his students and wait around for traffic to clear out!
And that's a wrap on the 22 season.
