For the Love of the Game

Well even though our boys are still relatively young we are already seeing how busy our lives are going to be with sports. With them all in a sport and of course never on the same day we eat, sleep, and breathe football, and soccer. It was so much fun and even though it has been crazy busy I have to admit I am going to miss it a tiny bit through the winter, but just a tiny bit. It is so much fun to go watch them and see how much they have progressed since the begining of the season. The first set of pics are of Braxton. This was his first year in Full Pads. It was serious business. They had practice three time a week each 1 1/2-2 hours long plus a game. Before every game they had weigh-ins and everything. They played their games at night and under the lights. It was pretty cool. Although I have to say I was pretty nervous for Braxton each week because he weighs about 65 lbs and the weight limit was 101 lbs. So a good majority of the boys were a lot bigger than him. He was a little nervous about getting tackled at the begining of the season but is pretty into it now. He has improved a lot this year and I can't believe how much stronger he is too. Our little boy is growing up.







Porter played his second season of flag football this year. He loved it! He got into it a lot more this year and you could tell he was understanding the plays more. Mike was his head coach and Porter loved that. These are just a few pictures from their last game of the season. The little boy in the pic with Porter is his friend from across the street. The last couple are some action photos. He is #24 and their team name was the GIANTS.







Hudson is playing soccer this year and can I tell you how much he LOVES it! He eats, sleeps, and plays soccer all day. He takes his soccer ball most places we go. He is on the same team as a couple of our neighbors so he loves that too. They have practice once a week and that is it, no games or anything and they have learned so much. The coach is great and the kids love him. He is Irish and I love listening to him talk its great. This weeek is Hudsons last for soccer so I am hoping we can find him something else that he will like for the winter maybe indoor soccer!
