The Eagles have landed


Today was the first football game of the season. I just have to say that our team looks sharp. I am not sure about black uniforms in the heat that we have here in Arizona, but they do look so cute.

(Wyatt is #70)


Wyatt is one of the biggest or should I say tallest kids on the team. We hold our breath when he has to weigh in. He can't weigh over 79 pounds in his full uniform. Today he weighed in at 79lbs 4 oz. They still let him play, but we are going to have to cut back on his food the next few weeks. He is the skinniest thing to begin with but he has gone through a growth spurt and has gotten quite tall. He is getting more playing time this year and is having fun. I would like to see him get more aggressive on the field, he is such a softy. Thayne keeps telling him to get out there and make someone cry. I just started telling him what the coaches tell him, and that is to get out there and knock the snot out of someone. I keep telling him that I want to see snot fly! Not really but it sounds tough. I don't always get to sound tough so I try to do it when I can.


I am not sure why I never take pictures of the parents in the stands. All of our games are at 8am. You would think it was not to hot that early in the morning, but we were dying in the stands. I do not think I have sweated that much in a long time. I wish I had pictures to show you so you would believe me but I don't, but it was unbearable. Our parents team shirts are not in yet, but stupid me ordered black for my family. I can't imagine that keeping me any cooler when I get to wear it. Next week I am so sitting under the shades.

I hope next week I have pictures of snot flying.

Oh I almost forgot. ........ We lost 7-0.

The other team scored on us in the 4th quarter.

I'm not so sure about that whole "snot flying" thing. I always knew I wouldn't like football. Poor Wyatt, he can't get any skinnier! I have these nifty umbrellas that hook right to your chair, I LOVE them. Wouldn't go to a game without it. They are at walmart in the chair section, like $7 or something. Totally worth it.

Oh wow, it's still hot there? It's been in the low 80's here and sometimes high 70's oops am I bragging? Our Fall in Logan begins the last week of Aug. I'm all for the idea of the umbrella on the chair run out and get a couple. Go Wyatt!
