Merry Christmas

 

Two Games Left

I know all I do is post Football pictures but really that's been our life around here. Last year with one boy in football it wasn't. But with the two boys in football it's all we do. I even have to admit that on Friday night when there is no football for the boys we go over to Olympus and watch the High school games. This past Friday was the best game ever. (Olympus beat Skyline)

And Yes That miss E in a cheerleader outfit. She is going to be one for Halloween. So I figured lets do it right and get one you can wear to the games. She loves it and has been wearing it every chance she gets. :) Best $ I ever spent on a Halloween costume. 

Football for now

Well Right now we are mid way though the season and I already feel way to tried. M is loving every minute.  And Mr. H is now "hitting like a man" or so his coaches say. Hopefully everyone will enjoy the rest of the season. :)

Happy B Day H

Oh how time goes by and how you've grown. Happy, happy birthday my 12 year old.

Football, football and more football

The weeks are flying by, I can't believe it! Maybe it is because every Sat. we are at a football field. We show up to set up fields, take down fields and Joel to get trained as the new treasure.  It seems like only yesterday school began. The kids are happy and very busy. My favorite day has now become Friday. (Not one child as any lesson or place they need to be at.) Both boys have enjoyed playing football.  We are only up to 5 chiropractor visits and one insta care between the two for there football injuries. So here is hoping the rest of the season goes as smoothly, because we are half way though. Here are some recent pictures of last Sat. game. "M" is number 42 and "H" is number 6.

Pre Season Games

I can't even begin to tell you what an amazing day yesterday was! Yesterday my boys did a wonderful job blocking, hitting, sacking and one of them got a touch down! (when you are playing defensive end and you are able to get a touch down that is a rare and wonderful thing!) Thanks to my family who came out and was able to cheer on "H". Both boys won their games against Riverton, so even with it being a really long day it was a great one. (I have a lobster sun burn to show how long of a day it was.) So for the next few months football will become the main focus around here! GO TITANS!!! "M" IS # 42 AND "H" IS # 6

Trumpets, football dreams and J's Birthday

I am still trying to catch up over the last few months, so here goes. :) "H" Played in the school band this past year. I guess the band is cool in 5 and 6th grade. I wonder if it still is nerdy when you get to high school? of all the things to play "H" chose the Trumpet. It drove me crazy, when he practiced. And as soon as school was over we toke it back. :) I wonder if I'll be picking up another one in a few weeks or if he'll want to play... I don't know I hoping for the drums!
"M" and a friend went to the Big Dreams Football camp at East High in July and had a great time. They got to meet NFL player and he even got his ball signed. (Thanks NFL for the lock out, or that would have never happened.)
"J"''s B day was the end of June and I think the best thing of the hole day was his Cake. It was gone that night. And looking at the picture now makes me want to make it again. The picture of the hands all around his head is a Ballstaedt family tradition. So can you tell how old he is? I think we got the right amount of fingers in there.
