Summer is Almost Over

There a couple of things that always signal the end of summer for me. One is smelling a little football in the air of a cool morning. D-man has been practicing this week for football. They have had all light practices with just helmets and cleats until today. Today was the first contact with full pads. I have been a little concerned that he would be a little timid about hitting. He is one of the youngest and smallest on the team. The video you are about to see is of his first hit ever. I was proud of him. Of course he draws an older, much bigger boy. D-man is the defender #3 in the video. He did great and had some good hits and great runs throughout the day. Hopefully we can get some edited clips up for you all in the near future. Everyone else is great. Next round of classes start for me on Monday. Wendy is still trying to decide some things about her career. But all is good. Thanks for your prayers.
