Chad will be playing in his last High School Football Game Friday night. It is really exciting that it's for the State Championship for 5A at the U of U. Bingham won State in 2006 when Chad was a Sophomore. All of Bingham's football teams went undefeated that year and Chad was able to get a State Championship Ring. It was amazing for him. Now he is a Senior and they are in it again. Chad has really grown these past few years into a gifted punter. We are so proud of him and his efforts for his team. It is a sacrifice for him to just punt when he would rather be hitting someone or catching a pass. He was asked by his coach to become the best punter in the State and that is what he did. He has been ranked # 1 in the State the entire season except for one week when he went to #2. He also had a couple weeks where he was # 1 in the Nation . That was such an amazing thing to see as a parent. Chad is not just good at sports, he is a really nice, fun and respectable kid. He is not prefect but does understand the concept of staying out of trouble and making something of your life. Not all of his friends have embraced that thinking through the years. He has had to make new friends or just be alone with the family sometimes. He has been able to find some good friends the past couple years and I am grateful for them! I hope Chad took time to enjoy the journey this season. I hope he can relax and really take things in on Friday night. Win or loose, just enjoy the moment! Go Bingham # 84. The game will be televised live at 6:30 pm on KJAZZ 14 if anyone is interested. 11/21/08

YOU BET I'LL WATCHING ON THE BIG SCREEN !!! I'AM SO PROUD OF GRANDSON # 84!!!! GO BINGHAM!! LOVE YOU LOT"S WISH I COULD BE THERE!! GRAMMY
I remember when my boyfriend played his last game. I was waiting for him on the field, after they all showered. I didn't think that a bunch of 17-18 year old boys could cry any harder. You seriously would've thought that someone died. They all bawled and bawled. Obviously, it's a really big deal. Congrats to Chad. I know that football is important, but where it really matters, he's excelled. I just really like how great he has turned out. He really is a SUPER nice kid. You are lucky he's your boy. I am really grateful that I have been able to get to know him.
I think I will have to turn on the TV! (You know I will be home any way!) .......It will probably be an emotional night for him! So Cool!
