Start of School & Fall Sports

August 2011 started yet another school year for all 4 kids... Zachary now is a 7th grader and is playing football. Jared will start his last year of elementary school and is in the 5th grade. Olivia is a 3rd grader and Anna will be in kindergarten again.
Our excited 7th grader, who has to get up so early and go to school in the dark.

And our 3 elementary kids so excited for school.

With the start of school, also means the beginning of Middle School Football & weekend softball tournaments. Also, a new adventure for Jared- his first year of playing football with his dad coaching. And with all of this means- no weeknight or weekend free..busy, busy, busy!!

The 7/8 Falcons played 4/5 weekends in August/September and had 1 first place finish, 2 seconds and a 3rd.

And the MV Colts so far have a winning record and in 2nd place. Jared has done OK as a first year player and continues to improve and learn the game.
And a big shout out to our #85 for an amazing season in football!!! WOOT! WOOT! Zachary started on JV, in which the team went on to have an UNDEFEATED season!! Way to go COUGARS!! And also a couple of games into the Varsity Season got to dress out for 4 quarters and start for them. The team finished out the rest of the year with "W's" and they went on to the HCAC championship game against Hunter. Zachary started in that championship game on both Offense and Defense,  and we couldn't have been more proud of his performance. The Cougars WON that game and were HCAC champs!!! Already looking forward to next year... oh but wait, basketball has already started......

And last but not least, our little cheerleader... who fearlessly attends all the games rooting for her big sister and brothers. More to come on these photos....as mom & Anna had a photo session for "Mom & Me", so that she could have a picture collage like her siblings when they were a baby.
