Our first big snowstorm

Well the backyard is FINALLY covered in snow. We ended up with 10+" last week. And we got more today and they say there is more to come this WHOLE week long. I really don't mind as long as it warms up. IE: stays ABOVE ZERO!


Cool picture of our patio table.

"Twas the night before....

Twas the week before playoffs
And all through the state,
Griz Nation was ready
We knew it’d be great!
First up Texas State and
Griz fans would not worry.
31 to 13 Skinned dem Cats in a hurry.
With a smug attitude The Wildcats came flaunting
Our seismic North End Zone Their players were taunting.
But once was enough And redemption at hand Weber got spanked
Now ain’t vengeance grand
Of the Dukes they all said
“They’re the best in the land,”
Redemption round two Just as we planned.
Special Teams were excited
Showing grit and some gristle
Our defense ignited
And launched the Butte missile.
A pick and a swat
From a corner named Swink
On 4th down and 20
Duke’s hopes he did sink.
Bring on the Spiders ,
The Grizzlies don’t care
We’ve got Chase Reynolds
Who runs like a wild-hare
Mariani , Ferriter
Pfahler and Beaudin
Our feared air attack
Will soon be explodin’!
Now on-Quinn, now on-Horn,
And don’t forget Dow
On Hillesland, on Dyk, Bring it O-line Kapow!
When all are covered with a juke and twist
He carries the rock Our mighty Cole Bergquist.
Too many great players
To name in a poem
But at Finley Stadium
All Grizzlies will roam.
Under Friday night lights
Our fans have a wish
The Grizzlies will find
Some Spiders to squish
We’re ready and willing
And can’t hardly wait
The players, the coaches
This game could be fate.
You’ve practiced, you’ve sweated,
You’ve worked the whole season
The Championship Game
Is the one single reason.
So Santa is here
To offer a toast
To the Montana Grizzlies
The team we love most.
To all of our coaches in this season of light
Merry Grizmas to all And to all a good Brody McKnight!
Up With Montana!
