AUSTIN & COACH CHECK
Last night was Austin's 1st football game for the season. He has been working quite hard everyday, he leaves in the morning @ 7:00 a.m. and doesn't return back home until 6:00 or 6:30 p.m. Games seem to make it all worth the hard work, it was a bit of a bummer that they lost 20 - 41.... but oh well, better luck next time guys. The part that makes it that much better is that his uncle Jason - COACH CHECK is helping coach the freshman team. 13 years ago Jason started as the quarterback for Highland. Needless to say, the coaches that coached him are still coaching and he has stayed in contact with them. So when Austin made the decision to play football Jason decided to volunteer. Scott and I are so grateful for the time Jason has taken away from his own family to be with Austin on the football field! Austin is very lucky to have an uncle that would take this much interest in him, it actually totally amazes me.
Coach Check's football #10..... 13 years ago!
(Austin was so excited the day he scored Jason's #)
Coach Check must be watching an intense play
The highlight for me was watching the cheerleaders

awww how fun!!! i wish i could have been there, did he have fun??!! that is so awesome jason is doing that!!!
I had so much fun at the game. All the kids really enjoyed themselves too, but most of all... Jason enjoyed himself. He was definitely in his element. I loved watching Austin out there. What a fun experience for the both of them. He will never forget these hours they have spent together. It seems like yesterday I was cheering on that same track. Time flies by too fast!
I was wondering how his first game went. I think mountain view spanked everyone this week. Maybe highland will have better luck with other schools. They are hard to beat! How cool that Austin has Jason as a coach. What a great uncle!
I love high school football! How fun that Austin is playing and that his uncle is helping to coach. Good luck next week!
oh how fun. wow, i haven't walked highlands' grounds in years. that's neat tha jason spends the time to volunteer to coach, that is really neat!!
