Ammon

Ammon has been playing football with the Freshman Football team at Dripping Springs Highschool. He's played several positions. He is mostly a receiver. To me that means he is a target. He's had a few nasty bruises and sore muscles but all have healed quickly. The season is almost over. He's learned a lot and lost all his baby fat:( They spend the rest of the school year running and working out in the gym.

Hockey season just started! With AP Algebra, AP English, AP Biology, geography, health, Spanish, and football (Yes, it's actually a class) he is really busy! "AP" is "advanced placement." He gets extra credit for these classes. The courses are suppose to better prepare the students for college. Dripping Springs High School ranks really well nationally, which is one of the reasons taxes are higher in this school district.

Ammon just played a preseason hockey game the other day. His team was Central Texas Champion last year of all the high schools that participate. They went to State and competed in Houston. They are big and fast. This is a whole new game compared to the little house league boys he's been playing with up 'till now. They clobbered the other team. Ammon, of course, plays goalie. He only let one goal in. He made some great blocks. I've tried to load a quick video, but it's not letting me. I'll figure it out and post it later.
