Finally!

I have been trying FOR-EV-ER to get the video of Little Man playing flag football to upload.  Its fuzzy but you can see LM at the far right end of the offensive line.




May need to invest in a better video camera!

Are You Ready for Some Football?!

After trying T-Ball a couple of years ago, we thought we would sign up Little Man for Flag Football!  T-Ball in 90+ degree heat, 90% humidity in Houston TOTALLY SUCKS!  
Or we're just wimps....
So we thought, hmm...the fall is much cooler,  there is constant movement so LM won't get bored and the boy really needs to sign up for something to meet other kids at his new school.  :)

So Dad, Uncle Jay and I took LM to his first practice and it was great!  LM paid attention, had a great time and knew a lot of the kids on the team and Coach Vic is awesome!  Coach went over the basics with the kids and had a group meeting with the parents afterwards.  Practice once a week with games on Saturdays.  Oh, and other teams sometimes send "scouts" to the games to film a specific kid for recruitment.  SERIOUSLY?!  These kids are 1st graders!  But this is Texas and football is like a religion down here.

We have a scrimmage this Saturday and I can't wait to see the kids in action!  Will try to get some video of the game.
