So far we have had 2 ballgames this week and won them both!! Tonight we (CHS) play Dardanelle at home. Not sure how good of a team they have, but we beat the Jr. High 40-0 last night. We will leave in the morning to head to Fayetteville for the Hog game against Alabama. CBS is broadcasting the game, so maybe we will be on tv!! Not likely.
We have a catfish supper at church on Sunday and I have been assigned to bring a dessert......thinking Texas Sheet Cake.
