RICE 43, SMU 42!!!

Saturday, we went with a group of our friends to watch Wil Norris play football at the SMU stadium! Wil is a freshman and plays full back and special teams for Rice!
This is Julie's FIRST college football game ever!!
The day started with an amazing brunch at the Norris' home!

Half-Time......................................................... Will is #85!


Only 38 seconds left in the game...we were cheering so hard for Wil and the rest of the team!


Wil played so awesome! We got to see him catch his first pass!


WOW!!! What an exciting game!! Rice won in the LAST SECOND of the game!
WOO HOO!!!




Carter & Wil

Wil Norris was the first student Carter discipled and developed a friendship with when he began his internship in the student ministry at Prestonwood. Wil was in the 7th grade (2002).
Wil's parents, Woody & Gail, quickly became Carter's second family here in TX, and Julie became a part of their family and lived with the Norris' while she finished college.
We are so proud of Wil and his boldness in sharing his faith with his team and new friends at college. Please pray for Wil, that he will keep that boldness and that the Lord will use him in mighty ways. We love this sweet family!
