Football Season Begins

Last school year Jonah really got into playing football. They played during recess and he had a great time. A friends of ours mentioned this past summer that they were starting a team and Jonah said he wanted to play. He has been practing the past 4 weeks and this past weekend was the First Game. On Friday night they met and had a pep rally.
The two Tackle One teams, Tackle Two, Cheerleaders and families came for pizza, cheers, chants, and pep talks.
We all had so much fun!

Most families decorated their cars for the big game.

Saturday at noon we all headed out to the game. They had to be there an hour ahead of time.
I packed a lunch for us to eat while waiting for the game to start.
Then finally they took the field.
It was so exciting. At first it was a nice over cast day but then the rain began.

What was supposed to be a hour and a half game lasted two and a half hours. They went into triple overtime and lost buy one touch down.

What a great start to the season!
Luke, Lilly and Rosemary were exhausted, and fell asleep on the way home.

I can't wait for next Saturday!
