Three Football Games

Hello everyone, this is Morry.

We were able to sleep in this morning because football did not start until 10:30.  It was nice having a relaxed morning.

Noah's game was at 11am, followed by two football games for Evan at noon and 1.  Noah had to get there at 10:30 for warmups.  It was my first time seeing Noah play flag football in a game.  I thought he played very well today.  He had two passes thrown to him.  One he almost had, and another was knocked away by the defender.  He had a good run as well.  On defense, he covered so well that the other never passed to the guy he was covering.  He was always right there.  Noah's team had the lead briefly but ended up losing.

In Evan's first game, he had two good runs when he was on offense.  One he almost broke for a touchdown.  One kid made a great flag pull when Evan changed directions.  On defense, Evan blitzed quite a bit.  He had a great flag pull in the backfield and he jumped to knock down a pass as he was blitzing and took the pass off his forehead.  The ball shot straight in the air but he couldn't find it to intercept it.  Evan's team won.

In Evan's second game, he had a nice reception as well as a run.  The other team was quite big - they were made up of 6th graders - and Evan's team struggled.

Evan went home with Darius after the game.

We took it easy in the afternoon.

Around dinner time we picked up Evan and then went to a place called Third Base for dinner.  The service was pretty bad.  And actually, the food wasn't very good either.  We had gotten a coupon for $10 off when we did the 5K a few weeks ago and thought we'd give it a shot.

We stopped at HEB to get some shopping done on the way home.

The boys are getting ready for bed now.

Until next time...
