Go TROJANS!!

Well, I have been busy taking second by second pictures of my boys tackle football games so I thought i would put a few of my favorites on the blog.  Kason and Gannon have been doing a great job and their team "The Spring Trojans" have won their last two games!  This select spring season is pretty crazy and some of these teams we play from around Houston (and especially Katy) are very competitive.  Most other fall leagues have strict rules of behavior as well as weight, etc.  In this league, if you are in the correct grade and made the try-outs, you can play...no matter how big or small you are.  Thus we have a second grader on our team that is 145 lbs.  Needless to say, if you are smaller, you better bring your "A-game". lol

Here is a shot of a few of the boys before a game goofing off.  Kason and Gannon have made a bunch of new friends.

 Gannon leading the Kick-off.

 Gannon #43 in the huddle for the offense. 

 Kason making a Quarterback Sack!  K-Dog made the other team lose 5 yards on this play!

 Kason after the tackle getting up with some attitude.  

Gannon making a tackle  as a Linebacker! Go G-Money!

 Gannon on the offensive line next to his brother.

Kason making another tackle.  He is turning into a very good middle linebacker.

And this is my favorite shot of the boys after their last win!  

We have Easter weekend off but not to worry.  Next weekend we have more games so I am sure I will be posting more of my favorite shots.  I know, I need therapy! 

Baron's First Football Game!

Baron had is first flag football game this Saturday.   It was a blast watching him get his first chance to play football like his brothers.  He was all excited about having jersey #8 and new cleats!  He has to wear a mouth piece during the games and spent more time complaining about it and/or playing with it rather then playing football.    Anyway, here are a few of the pictures I took at the game.   

Nothing out of the ordinary...in our house.

  

In our house, some could say this is an unsightly dog kennel that's too big to look nice in any room and obviously evidence of child endangerment...the occupants of our home however see this as a cool place to hang out and play...with a dog...and watch T.V.  Nothing out of the  ordinary here...

Some may look at this next picture and think it a little odd.  What you say?.... you don't throw birthday parties for your dogs?...A birthday party for a dog is nothing out of the ordinary in our house.  Sad but true.

In other families, a child with a black eye is a big event.  A certain member of our home, no name mentioned....might rhyme with Cannon, has had more black eyes then I can count.  This scene would be surprising to some, a sign of child endangerment to others, a normal monthly event in our home.  (in case you're wondering, he ran into the trampoline with his face)  You know how elusive those trampolines can be...just jump out of no where when you're not lookin'.

This next little item is a picture of a normal Q-Tip you find in all bathrooms.  But in our house, this is an instrument of art and creativity... So there I am at 6:30 in the morning looking for the last of the Q-tips.... only one left and the rest are no where to be found...dang!   

 

Then I look up and discover what happened to the Q-tips.  I'm kinda impressed.  I would have never thought of that...and I think I know who made this art piece.  hhmmmm.G..a..n..n..o..n.. Nothing out of the ordinary in our house.

Some may view this as a beautiful rose bush that is lovely to have in your backyard.  Bright colors that smell wonderful...how peaceful.

In my house, that stupid rose bush is a $100 emergency room deductible.  Only at my house can we turn that lovely scene into a shirt-shredding bloody horror scene.  Lets just say playing football in the same yard as said rose bush (with a the neighbors puppy) and not watching where your running (at full speed) results in the below little injury.  Nothing out of the ordinary in our house.  Heck, they know us on a first name basis at the emergency room.  CPS..please don't call me.

 

Here, most would see an unsightly old dog with no bottom jaw that drools too much with a broken crooked hairless tail that is obviously too old to adopt...in our house we see a loyal old lap warmer that loves car rides and belly-rubs and has lots of love still left in him.  Love ya "Pops"!

Only in our house, but I wouldn't want it any other way. :-)
