All Region... We Are So Proud!!!


Well as you all know, Caden played Pop Warner this year. He played for the "Predators" a team that was based out of Gilbert. The team finished the season 7 - 3 and was able to win their final game against Dompers School for the Extremely Slow.
The team's captain attributed Caden to their sucess.
"If that kid who brings out the water hadnt brought it out, we would have all been thirsty."
Other high praise from the team's center.
"That water kid always brings the best orange slices."
In fact, Caden was nominated for honorable mention in the Gilbert- South Eastern Corner of Gilbert and Baseline Region's "Team Support Team". He narrowly missed honorable mention to Javier Smith the blind boy that washes the jock straps. Truly a bitter pill to swallow.... We think he played the whole "blind" card. However, the team's final excerpt in their team newsletter made a superb mention of him. "Special thanks to Caleb Blast - Team Gopher".
We were so proud!

Caden actually did very well this season and played both Offensive guard and Defensive End. The coaches said that they werent quite sure of how well Caden would do, but as the season progressed that he became one of their best players and fiercest competitors.
During practice, Caden would line up on the 1st string offense and play against the starting defensive tackle. The boy who played defensive tackle, became so tired of being pushed back and slammed into on every play that he began lining up out of position away from Caden. We had a really fun season and Caden became quite the tough tackler, sacking the quarter back multiple times and making a lot of tackles. We are excited to see how he does next year.

World Saved From Annihilation........ Again.

Heros come in many shapes, colors and even sizes. ....
On the brink of destruction and only a few short moments from the entire Earth coming into the grasp of the evil Skeletor, Weston "Thunder Pants" Bast came to humanity's rescue once again on Halloween Night.
With only his trusty magical sword "Horatio" and his Elmo pale of doom, Weston was able to single handily gather enough candy to battle Skeletor's minions, "Dental Care" and "Nutrition".
In an exclusive interview with the hero, Thunder Pants said this about his battle to the death with evil.
"Da Da Da, Gi! ...Gi!"

Which roughly translated comes from the ancient latin script. "Iza Kicksa Soma Majorio Asso".
Truly, Thunder Pants is more than meets the eye, not just a warrior, but a warrior poet sage.
