Packers game day

 They won 45-6

Jeremiah caught 2 interceptions, almost 3 but his flags fell off and needed to be taped.  He ran half the field for a touchdown - his flag was pulled right near the end zone.  But he caught the next pass for a touchdown.

Go Packers!

First JV game

 Nathanael played a lot!!

Go #4!

(We lost 40(something) to 6), but the weather was fantastic, just a nice night out!

#4 is lining up tight end.

#4 is running left WR.  He caught a sweet catch. (Not on this play).

He played offense, defense and special teams.

Great day!

Let's go Packers!

 Jeremiah had his first flag football practice tonight!

Beautiful night for practice!

Big guys in school

 Well these are my lame back to school photos for the big guys.  To make it official!

Adley 

Nathanael 

First home scrimmage!

 Good game Vikings!

Our team was on the side opposite the stands...and JV didn't have numbers.... but I still found my Nathanael.  Next to the signal pole.

Nathanael played wide receiver (which he was impossible to find in my photo) and safety, pictured here.

Have a great season Nathanael!

He also played tight end at the away scrimmage earlier in the week.

Wheels!!!

 Look who got wheels today!!

There's a very happy guy in this house today!

First day of 8th grade!

 

Have a great year Jeremiah!

Cape Cod Camping Weekend (BEACH)

 What a fantastic weekend camping in Cape Cod with the Parsons and Grandma.

Our first night -after going out for pizza dinner - we took a walk into the sunset at Skaket Beach.  A beach on the bay side - so shallow with sandbars you can walk forever.

Those blips in the middle near the sunset - that's our guys!

The next day we biked and explored the campground.  We went to another beach after 4:30 and brought sandwich dinner.  The waves were GREAT - but the water was COLD.  The guys mostly threw footballs and burried eachother.

On Sunday we biked to a nearby ocean beach, on the bay side so the water was warm.  Another shallow beach at low tide we had to walk far to get into the water.  The guys enjoyed some football on the sand.

GREAT DAY

What a nice weekend!

Gillette stadium

 Let's go Football!! Eagles won 14-13, what a great preseason game in the stadium!
