The One With No More Wisdom (Tooth)

September 6-9, 2018

This one starts on a Thursday, because FRIDAY NIGHT LIGHTS was on a Thursday this week, so we gotta play by someone else's rule this week!

Thursday night was the first road trip for the SHS Pioneers this year.  They were headed to Norman High School to play Norman North in what the local new media were calling a Battle of the Bedlam Namesakes.  You see, in the 1980's Coach Mike Gundy played for Oklahoma State and Coach Barry Switzer as the University of Oklahoma head coach.  Tonight, Gundy's son Gunnar was QB1 for Stillwater and Jake Switzer, Barry Switzer's grandson, was QB1 for Norman North. Stillwater went in there and punched them in the mouth!  Came out with a 44-14 win, and when the rankings came out over the weekend we are #1 in the Class 6A Div II district!

This was also the trainers first road game, so they got the "Weaver Treatment" with Cookies from "I Think So Cupcakes."

YAY!  Cookies!

Lara and Molly

All the trainers!

Friday, Lara had another little adventure.  This time, back to Broken Arrow to get her one and only wisdom tooth removed.  It had started bothering her late in the summer, this date was available with the surgeon, and it didn't interfere with football!  Win-Win!  She did great - very minimal bruising and swelling, and a super easy recovery!  Her friends and family were sad that she wasn't very loopy after the surgery and we didn't get any good video.  I think the anesthesia actually made her sharper.  She answered a lot of questions with quick and concise (surprising) answers - better than when she is not drugged up!

Lara's mouth!  

She was reading a book on the way home.

She spent the rest of the weekend catching up on homework, recovering from her surgery, rinsing with salt water, and just hanging out.  As it should be!

Emma was in Logan County doing Emma things!  We are excited because we get to see her next weekend!
