A friend of ours was in charge of Red Ribbon week at Heritage. We tried really hard to get a player to come to the assembly. But they had a game on Saturday and didn't have anyone that could make it. So the next best thing......
Davy and Leo the Lion.
The crowd loved it! Dave was his charming self. And had all the hundreds of kids completely quiet. Which he didn't realize is quite an accomplishment at an elementary school. He had kids come up on stage and show their soccer moves. While he talked about how sports players stay healthy. Leo the Lion got the crowd excited. By doing standing back flips and all sorts of craziness. This picture is when they were throwing out t-shirts to the crowd of kids. Followed by a song from Davy, "pockets on the floor, pockets on the floor."
Davy and his rendition of pockets on the floor. One of the sweetest things was that Leah got to introduce Dave to the school. We didn't know she was going to do it so this wasn't rehearsed at all. She said, "Hi this is Leah Ratchford from Ms. Schneider's class. My dad works for Real Salt Lake the soccer team. Please put your hands together for my daddy Davy Ratchford."
Leah the skeleton. She really wanted to be something scary. 
Ronan the pirate. Ask him what a pirate says, he will answer, aghrrr mates.
