Wildcat Mom!!

We had our first "8th grade football" game. We went to Whitehouse! I never actually knew where Whitehouse was - but after seeing how close it was to Tyler - I have probably been there before and never knew I wasn't in Tyler. We did not win - but they had a great time! Dylan has been wearing a brace on his knee to help an early injury he has - so all we wanted was for him not to get hurt. Our prayers were answered and he played a great game!




He is #85 - and yes he does look "tiny" compared to the other players - but he can definitely hold his own!! We are very proud of him and all his daily hard work and dedication to his team.





After the game we headed over to Mercados. We had been told by a "very reliable source"(Thanks Felicia!!!) that it is a great place to go - and we had never been - so why not? It was VERY good and we had a wonderful time taking our "teenager" out after the game.




On the way home we realized that we were bringing home "real" football equipment! This may not seem important to many - but we have an aspiring young football player here at home! We knew that he was going to be very excited about it (for weeks he has been pretending "football" with his baseball helmet and gloves!). It is quite funny to see him charging all over the house with his "gameface" on!!


Yes - we were right he was in heaven! He had all this on most of the day today!! He has a great big brother who was very generous to share! He has enjoyed being tackled by not only his brothers but even Daddy got in on the game!! Life with BOYS is never-ending Fun!!

Tomorrow we are on to a FULL day of Soccer!!
