Soccer Team Dinner at our House

So a simple misunderstanding turned into one of the best nights this soccer season.

I invited Ryan Geoghegan to come to dinner at our house because I was serving Chicken Parmesan.  Previously I had talked about having a Chicken Parmesan dinner for the team, but it never worked out... Ryan misunderstood my text to mean an initiation for the team ... so he put it out for the team.  In one minute, dinner changed from Mark, Robert, Ryan and I to - we are having 10 extra people for dinner.

Robert had to go to a stake committee meeting from 5:00 - 6:00 so he wouldn't be home until 6:20.  I told Ryan to come around 6:30.  He and a group of guys came at 6:00 - ugh!!!

Mark and I invited them up to play Ping-Pong or darts in the basement or play football or basketball outside.  They all had a great time waiting for Robert.

Mark and I were a great team.  We made linguine pasta, chicken parmesan, marinara sauce, Alfredo sauce, & crescents.  We had water bottles and chocolate milk.

We set up two long tables outside with
NOHS colored table clothes as decoration.  They all got whatever they wanted to eat. 

Dylan Smith, Michael Raybine, Robert Lowe, Mo Mandoza, Drew Bailey, Mason Rice, Ryan Geoghegan, Wilton Stone, Nathan Clark and Matthew Morris - great men!!!
After dinner they played Frisbee, football toss, and basketball.

What a great night to spend time with his soccer buddies.  I felt so blessed to be able to welcome them to our home and treat them to a nice dinner.  They should have plenty of energy from the carbs for the game on Monday.
