And so it begins....

August marks going back to school and of course the start of football. All on the same day this year! We jumped in with both feet this year. Andrew and Eli are playing, Ethan is playing at the high school, Emma is cheerleading, Jeremy is the head coach for the minors and I am secretary for the league. It's been a crazy ride so far and we haven't even had our first game yet!
As hard is it is to fit all this into our schedules, we love it!

Andrew is so into the game. He is fun to watch and I am looking forward to seeing how he does this year now that he's a year older and gained 15 pounds since last year. He is a hard worker and it's going to be fun!
Jeremy is having a blast coaching. He is doing such a good job. The boys love him. I suppose I am biased, since he is my husband after all. But he is fun and so positive with the kids. After last year's coaching fiasco, they are loving him!

Emma is so excited to be a cheerleader. To be honest, I was not all that thrilled with it. I cannot stand cheerleaders. Those who  know me will probably understand why :)  But, she is having a fun time and is just so stinkin' cute out there! I am not terribly impressed with her 16 year old coach, but I guess that is how it goes. As long as she has fun, that is all that matters.

We headed to the park for some one on one practice last weekend. Ethan and Andrew got to take each other on. They just about the same weight now, so it's pretty even.

We are crazy for football around here and are eagerly awaiting our first game in less than two weeks!
