GO TIGERS and Friendship Baptist Church

After the baby shower Saturday morning we made our way to Robby's old stompin' grounds - Rice University (GO OWLS!). Katy was up against the Unicorns (New Braunfels High School). It was a tough battle, but as expected Katy pulled through and will be going to STATE next weekend in San Antonio. They play Abilene for the title, so keep Matthew and the other Tigers in your thoughts!

Final Score 14-6, KATY! The weather wasn't beautiful, but the W-I-N was!

Matthew & Amanda - look at those smiles


After the game we headed down I-10 to Pappa and Granny's house. Pappa donated some money to help build a new Friendship Baptist Church, and this weekend was the grand opening! Almost all of the family was there. I think it was the first time ever that all of the beds in Granny and Pappa's house were full. The church is beautiful and so was the dedication service. The whole town turned out. They had TONS of delicious food and desserts. It was a busy weekend with lots of driving, but it was really nice to have so much family in one place all at the same time.

Emmie, Heather, and Pappa dressed and ready for the dedication

I am going to see if I can post a video we took of these men singing. They were absolutely amazing. Our favorite was the man on the right. His voice could go SO low.
