1st Game

Jack had his first football game the day after Thanksgiving. The game was at CBC against Mathews Dickey's Boys Club. They won! Jack is number 6 and his jersey says "Picht" because we were borrowing it since he was not on the team the entire season. It was 24 degrees out and beyond cold but he had a blast. He is having fun and learning. They played their 2nd game today and won again. Way to go Jack. Proud of you!

Grant

Grant loves football just as much as Jack does. He wants to play so bad! He is loves TJ Moe and Steven Jackson. My favorite game that we get to play is when he pretends to be sTeven Jackson and I get to be Steven's mom!

Practice

Jack joined the O'Fallon Renegades 2nd grade tackle football team late in the season in order to try it out and play in a tournament over Thanksgiving weekend. The team had been practicing since mid August and Jack only had about two weeks of practice before the first game. One evening he and Brian worked in the back yard together.

Halloween

We had a fun Halloween. Jack dressed up as Bobba Fett (Star Wars), Grant was Darth Vadar, and Will was a baseball player. The boys got a ton of candy and it was not super cold.

Kids Parties

Both Jack and Grant had parties at their school for Halloween. I was able to attend both. We were told that we could not take pictures at Grants school so I did not bring my camera and then watch as every other mom took tons of pictures and no one told them to stop. AHHH!! Needless to say I will bring my camera next time. Both schools played games, had a snack, and did a craft. I am so lucky I get to leave and go to these parties.

Pumpkin Patch

We took the boys to the pumpkin patch (Thies Farms) a couple of weeks before Halloween. They had a blast. It was a little warm in the month of October and it was weird to go in our shorts but we did!

Family

1. Jack and Grant love to wear football jerseys right now.
