Wordless Wednesday w/ linky: Our boy of Fall

Filed Under: Life in North Dakota, Small Town Sports Tagged With: prairie life, wordless Wednesday 8 Comments

It’s Wordless Wednesday and I’m going to keep it short today. Simple and sweet. 32 is our boy our Fall, an 8th grader playing small town nine-man football on the North Dakota prairie. Small town games are a community event. It’s a gathering place. Win or lose, which we were on the losing end tonight, it is still a memory forever burned into my mind. In five years, our boy of Fall will (God willing) be in college and life will be so different. So I am going to relish in the chaos of road tripping to weekly games for the next four plus years and enjoy the warm (or cool) Fall days of watching our boy. 
Link up and share your Wordy or Wordless Wednesday. Be sure to visit other fun blogs that have linked up and enjoy.

    Katie, I just love that high school football is such a community event where you live. Like one big family that supports each other. Wish it was a bit more like that here in CA:)

    Aw, I just love this! It’s the story of my life with the kids except we moved to such a tiny town last year that we don’t have football. I miss the somewhat tiny town we lived in in KY. At least we had football there…and the sense of community you spoke about. 🙂

Welcome to the Prairie…

I am a mom of three kids and a wife to Nathan. Together we live on the North Dakota prairie, 97 miles from a Starbuck's. I share about family, food, farming and the prairie that I love. I used to commute 98 miles one-way to work but it required too much coffee. So now I am home, consulting, speaking, writing and primarily, juggling family life.
