Down...Set...Hut

...Julian's favorite thing to say now.

This fall has been lots of fun with plenty of football to watch, flag football that is. We were lucky enough to get Julian on a team that has 5 other kids he's known since daycare, some from when he was 18 months old. So the last two months have been rather busy with football among other things. Tuesday and Friday nights we've had practice, then games every Saturday at 8am. It's been a fun time for all of us. The team he is on is fantastic and the coaches have done a wonderful job working with 16 boys on a sport that requires the kids to be so organized. Many visitors have come by the practices & games to cheer on the boys including - CC, Poppy, Granmommy, Mama, and Aunt Julie. He loves having the visitors and showing off his stuff.

So, football. This is a sport I never saw myself encouraging one of our boys to play. Soccer, baseball, maybe basketball - absolutely. But football, I always thought I would strongly encourage him to go a different way. Then in late August this opportunity presented itself and I have been so glad that he's playing. The games are so much fun and the kids are so exciting to watch. Anyway, here are a few pictures from the season. The first few are from an e-mail a friend sent me. I can't figure out why they're posting in a smaller size.

Daddy up to bat...

Tonight we got to go and watch daddy play softball. He played FOUR games tonight and luckily one was early enough for me to get the boys out to watch. He's playing on a co-ed and men's team and both teams had a double header tonight - hence the 4 games in one night. Some games start as late as 10 so it was nice to have a game start at 6 so the little ones could make it out before bed time.


Tonight Mic pitched for the first time. Back in his prime he was strictly a third base man.

Go Daddy!!

No biting.

Can you see it?? One of Tate's classmates got ahold of his whole cheek, with their teeth!
