It's that time again!

It's the most wonderful time of the year! Well, for the boys anyway. Football season. Jakob is excited to finally be playing football. He was bummed last year because we moved here at the end of the season so he missed it. He's waited all year and it's finally here. He did a really great job. He had to wait until defense to play, but he did a great job. He got to play offense and even QB! He took a snap to the face and was a little stunned but he got over it and got back out there and played his little heart out. I think he ended up playing about every position at some point. It's really a pretty cool set up they have. There's an inflatable helmet with smoke that all the cheerleaders and players run thru before the games, they all have their names announced - Jakob Skrag is what they said. Steve is the assistant coach for the team. As a whole, the team did great, they need to work on catching, but it was only the first game. They can only get better. At least this sport has practice each week, unlike the other ones. They have a website for pictures and info - www.firstbaptistflagfootball.org - currently there are only last year's pics, but new ones should be posted soon. Can't wait for next weekend!
