Football

This is Noahs first year of tackel football. Last year he did flag football, but he wasnt really interested in it and it was painful to watch.
They do not mess around here. His practices were 6 days a week for 2 hours each day. They said that the practices would be cut in half when school started and I was looking foward to a break. Apparently, not having pratice for one day was cutting it in half. He gets Tuesdays off. Its crazy. I really dont know how people do it with more than one kid in an extra-ciricular activity. I only have one and im going nuts. He gets home from school at 4 and goes to practice at 6 and gets home at 8:15. I feel for the poor kid, but I must admit it has been good for him. They work those boys like crazy, but its exercise that he needs so its good. Its also been good because he has to focus or he gets knocked on his bum.
So handsome!
He doesnt really have a definate position, but they started him on his first scrimmage.
The kickoff...
And their off!!!


Thats Noah on the ground. He didnt start off too well, but after he got knocked around, he got his head in the game. (I love that line)

These kids had fun on the sidelines. Monkey Tyson was trying to be the ball going through the goal post.
Future football players.
Tyson wants to play so bad. He goes to Noahs practices and runs sprints with the team. He can start tackle next year-im not so sure about that one.
Look at that form!!


Noah is #86. He had some pretty good plays this game. He broke right through the line and almost sacked the guy.

(the yellow hats are the opposition. For some reason they made all Lehi teams have the same jersy)



I love this picture of Noah. He looks so big. How many more years do I have of this??
Noah played his first real game this last Saturday. He plays on the defense and when he pays attention, he actually plays pretty well. Their team won by 14 points!!


This is how Lani passes the time. This girl can make friends with anyone, anywhere.

Every Saturday from now until Novemeber 1st... looks like we are homebound until Thanksgiving. Oh the things we do for our kids!!

Great pics shelly. Noah is growing up to be quite the little man. I'm sure Bill is happy about it. He looks like he's having a a blast. Can't wait for Tyson and Caleb to play ball.

Oh my gosh....Noah looks SO stinking handsome and so grown up! I can't get over how cute he looks in his football gear. That's so cool that he's playing this year. I just wish we were there to go to his games :( Anyway, I LOVE the pics!
