extracurricular

well, the time has come. the time to see if braden enjoys football as much as his dad and grandad do. galesburg's jfl flag football division is for 1, 2 and 3rd graders. braden, being the 1st grader, was able to play, he said yes, we signed him up....he is BY far the smallest kid on the team and almost the "slowest" runner...he has NO stride, his legs are short. but, our 26 week 2 lb preemie is out there trying his best to keep up. he may not play again next year (who knows), but he is making us proud this year.
up-downs...i didn't do one of these till high school....
blocking...another first grader, luckily they are close in size

the first game we saw a lot of this.....


and more of this...those darn mouth pieces
So what about miss fin you might ask....well aside from LOVING preschool (she even asked if she could on Saturday) she is starting dance (pre-tap....we didn't think she was the ballet type...) today. i just hope they dont let parents in because I will be CRACKING UP!!!


exactly how cute are these???? smallest size Payless (thank god) had




they are asked to wear "proper" dance attire





heaven help me





now THIS is how i would expect her dancing to look....as she referred to her legs ALL afternoon....i've got "LOCO LEGS"
