Kids do the weirdest things. This week on Thursday night we had a little rain shower pop up. Beau and his buddy proceeded to play football in the rain out back of our house. Sounds normal enough. I got a few action shots of them, and then decided to head out front and check on the girls. When I reached the front with camera in hand I see Mary Kate and her friend Lauren bent over fully submersing their heads and hair into the rain water which was running down the gutter. They would raise up and flip their hair back like Breck girls, then bend back over and do it again. So I snap a quick picture and then yell "Girls get your heads out of the gutter!" They looked at me like, "Really? Is it not ok to stick our hair in dirty, worm infested, street gutters?" If you scroll down you can see the proof in the picture. I'm just glad they didn't get naked, and start bathing out there!
We are pretty pumped about the new sidewalk running in front of our house. It hooks with all sorts of bike paths around town so the kids can now safely ride bikes around the neighborhood.
Demons Roll to 4-0
by Lola B. Cupps
Dodge City faced it's first WAConference opponent on Friday as they traveled to Liberal to take on the "Angry Redskins." After suffering the 41-20 loss, the Redskins might just be Really Pissed Redskins. Early on it looked like it was going to be an easy victory as the Demons offense was rolling and they were up 21-0. Then shortly before half some crucial turnovers and a momentum swing had Dodge City scrambling to hang on. Dodge City threw an interception, which gave Liberal good field position and they went to the air to #1 J. Cathey who is a 6'4" receiver already committed to K-State next year. Demons got the ball back and were moving it up the field, and then fumbled it. Redskins went back to the air and for a while their air attack was pretty scary as the quarterback was accurate, and the Demon coverage was sketchy. Going in at half the score was 27-21 with Dodge hanging on. Some obvious changes were made and the Demons were able to slow down Liberal's passing game for the second half. Dodge City had a balanced offense and multiple threats which proved to be too much for Liberal. The nail in the coffin was the hook and ladder play ran late in the 4th to put the fans on their feet and the Demons up 41-21. Once again Dodge City came away the victor with out any major injuries other than the Head Coach's wife, Summer sustained a minor wrist injury due to violent cowbell shaking. She expects to be fully recovered by Friday when Dodge City will host Great Bend at home. Should be a very tough, wild game as their is no love lost between these two schools.
