Monster

Hello everyone, this is Morry.

This morning, Rachel got up early to go for a big run. She's only got a few weeks left before the San Antonio half marathon.

I got up around 8am and got Evan ready for football.  He had a flag football double header.  There are only 3 teams in his league and to make sure that each team plays each week, they rotate which team gets a double header.

We left when Rachel got back from her run as Noah was still sleeping.

Prior to today, Evan had not played well on defense.  But somehow, today was his breakout day.  He was all over the field pulling flags in the backfield or diving to grab the flags off of kids.  In fact, he spent half the day on the ground because he went to the ground every time he went to pull a flag.  At one point, before the snap, he was running in place.  I told him he looked like Jack Lambert out there.  One of the mothers came over to him and told him he was "playing like a monster out there". All in all he played well and the coaches were so happy I think he only sat down for 4 series total in the 2 games.  Evan told me he really likes playing defense.  He seemed to be pretty tired after the game, though he didn't nap.

After football, we went to Don's Grass to buy some pumpkins.  The boys weren't in a particularly good mood there so we didn't stay long.  We thought they'd enjoy all the decorations, the pumpkin patch and all the stuff they had up for Halloween.

We came home and had lunch and the had the boys settle down in the gameroom.

After "naps", Evan and I went in the backyard and played some more football.

Before dinner, we went out to the Wildflower park and let the boys play some.  After that we ate at Cypress Grill for dinner.

The boys are now in bed.

Until next time...
